    Yes folks it's time for some Midsummer Madness right here on BGRH. Our next official Beers is moving to the Great Outdoors. No, we haven't lost the run of ourselves, we have, however, got ourselves the finest beer garden in Dublin (it says here).

    Note: Due to the lack of warm fuzzy feeling about Dicey Riley's, and due to their management refusing to accommodate latecomers, we have changed venue to D2. In true BGRH style, it is only a couple of meters up the road

    What: Night of a Thousand Corsets, the BGRH Midsummer Beers (Ladies, you know what you have to do)
    Were: D2 Harcourt Street. Map here.
    When: Friday, June 20th
    Time: 5:30pm till late

    All are welcome, especially lurkers, newbies and Brothers recently banned from the Soccer forum.

    If you don't want to walk into a room full of strangers, don't worry! PM me, or any of the regulars and we can make arrangements to meet beforehand. We do this all the time. Just ask GrahamThomas.

    Serious Note: As we all know, the internet is full of weird and wonderful people. It brings people together for many, many reasons. We here on BGRH use it to go on the piss together. Some people use it to, well, piss on each other. Seriously. At a recent unofficial beers, a newbie ended up in the middle of a swingers party, details here. So kids, for your own protection, make sure you get your tin of condensed milk and make the Internet a safer place.

    Will there be grub there?

    Well brothers and brotherettes, it's like this... This weekend is Galway LAN and my lift leaves on Friday after work, so I will not be able to make it :( I might be able to make it on for a very quick pint on my way from the office to my flat (it's on the way) if people are there nice and early, but that's all I can commit to I'm afraid :(

    I do hope ye have fun and in my absence, I'll try to astrally project myself there when I get settled in Galway :D

    I just got their new album actually, it's something of a retrospective view on humanity's descent into apathy and the need for war as a means of driving the world economy. Touching stuff.

    Indeed, with a sub-plot of how globalisation, cheap travel, immunisation and easy access to the Internet has transformed the half-life of the zombie unwashed proletariat who can now form self governing & well informed, ever growing armies of the undead, at a local level.

    Which is progress of a sort.

    well as Ginny is a woman i'd say she would probably be more inclined to have a column on mens "shoe" sizes

    Huzzah for friday and impending admiration of women in corsets. And beer. Oh yes, the beer.

    Then it's off to Sweden not three days later for further admiration of females of a Swedish kind.

    You have your name down, so therefore you wouldn't be a last-minute attendee, you're already counted in the official numbers.
