    Short notice I know, but put it down to me being a useless fecker. Anyway. Beers? Friday? I'll be back in the country as of Thursday evening. Oh, and if anyone's got JohnK's number in Waterford, get him to come down too. It's only an hour on the bus :D

    I can't drink this weekend. How long are you around for? Blitz was planning on organising a trip to flicks Friday week or so. Something suitably awful, Hitman or summat.

    Only around 'til Sunday, although I suppose we could be experimental and try some sort of non-beverage related outing. Have you permission to eat? Could try going for food instead...

    I'm in Italy for the weekend, so unfortunately I won't be here. Going to have to get to a boards meet soon though.

    Hey, I might not actually look half bad in a Speedo these days. You like to Scuba?

    Stuck this earlier.

    I was going to suggest a meet up over the Christmas, specifically because it's been a while since one was suggested on here, and also because I haven't met any of you.

    I can bring speedos, but it would probably be best if I didn't...

    This Friday is out for me :(

    Mrs. Roundy is off to a hen night, may God have mercy on her soul, so I'll have to stay within falling distance of home.

    You're right, I do.

    We have to think of the Westies though (and not the ones who live(d) in Spain).

    Suggest a few dates, guys, and I'll put a poll up or something.

    Venue? Franciscan Well, or elsewhere?

    I can't, unfortunately. I'm kinda tied to the 30th of this month or the 21st of next.

    (NOTE: There will be a return to Frist Firday from around the end of February next year. Long term preparation for the stag and all that.)

    a day, as yet to be decided, between christmas day and new years day would be most convenient.

    in the unlikely event of us getting large numbers of guaranteed yes's prior to the event we can see if we can scab some free munch somewhere.

    I'm afraid that rules me out :(

    I have a best man speech to give on the 27th, and the following day is earmarked for a session in East Cork, a post marital post mortem as it were.

    My apologies guys, I was looking forward to this.

    I'm on the early morning shift at work until Christmas, and the staff party is this Sat. So unless either Sunday, or the following weekend (22/23) is chosen then I'll likely have to pass. Family wedding on the 28th, so that rules those few days out.
