    Still need to buy a ticket. They went on sale late enough. €50 for a single and already paid desposit.

    The venue is only down the road -- I mean walking distance. There will be no splashing out on a limousine here! :D

    Have only paid for the tickets, but AFAIK, there has been no contact from the people organising it. Its most likely to end up being cancelled. Boo hoo says I</sarcasm>. Ah its all just a load of crap, if it does happen, I'll just bring a friend, then got horribly drunk and never have to remember it.

    Bought tickets months ago, don't really have a date at the moment but there are a few people I can bring. Gotta order dress from online cos all the other dresses are too common (says the girl from Leixlip...) I'm sure I'll find nice shoes, since I work in a shoe shop, hair? Curl it. Make up? Sister will do it. Limo? If people keep nagging me I'll cave.

    You work in a shoe shop that doesn't DO high heels. Just get ones from Barratts or something, there are sales on. If you get a limo, you suck, c'mon..bus is just FUN.

    We do high heels, especially around Debs season!! And I'm more of a Cinders gal than a Barrats gal. I'll probably get the limo though.

    We only got the date for ours there a few weeks ago, and even so its not 'official'-its just that a parent rang up the place where it was rumoured to be on and found this out. We'll only be finding out probably on results day how much the tickets are, when we can buy them etc so its a mess but none the less its still a debs!

    Thats said, I'll have a tux, maybe a limo.Who knows.

    the debs vet that I am i'm gonna warn you all, especially the girls, for all the trouble that goes into the debs, dresses and all that, you are fortunately/unfortunately never likely to remember what actually happened.

    Yeah, once the formalitites of photos and chocolates and meeting auld pairs ****e is over, it's just like another session except with a meal thrown in. Still one of the best nights out I've had though.

    Mine are 85 euro too... Cept we paid them in installments throughout the year so it wasn't so bad!

    Have a date, just need to rent a tux, buy a corsage etc... not much effort required I think ;)

    I went to the debs last year too and it was awesome!! One of the best nights I've had. For anyone worried about getting a date... Just go with your friends! It's so much less hassle! After the first few songs everyone was dancing with everyone else anyway.

    So yeah, looking forward to it... Was sooo annoyed though.. My friend asked me to his debs, but then ours were both on at the same time... Grrrr...

    So yeah, it's an expensive night out sure! But a brilliant one

    One tip-If you don't have a bf/gf, ask a friend. Way better fun & you won't have to be minding them all night! It is NOT the night to try to get with someone! Enjoy it!

    I was going to take the ex but that'd just be too much hassle now, my friends are all too short to take!

    Problem I have there is that most of my friends who are girls are in the same school as me, which means if I go with one of them they'll already have a debs ticket and I'll have wasted €85 on an extra one(and chances are they'll have also).

    Hire out some 'escort' for the nite. Not only will you show everyone else up - "This is Kriciew, my date" but she'll be class for the pictures. And other stuff.
