didn't you like the first one? I thought it was okay but the ending was a let down. Haven't watched the alternate ending yet. I think I'll be avoiding the second one though, the novelty of the first one has worn off now so I'm not expecting much from the sequel.

Considering how hard it was raining I think you will be very muddy after soccer.

Blitzkrieger

Nah - it's on astro turf so it won't be too bad. Might be a bit slippier than usual though :eek:

I don't know about the second as the thing that was good about the first was the way the tension built up but that is nothing new now. Maybe when it comes out on DVD. All the lights off so nobody can see I'm scared.

Hey everyone, anyone know where I could find a half decent Halloween costume? I had no plans to head out but today I got invited to a costume party on Sat night so it's all a bit last minute.

Yeah? It only rained here once since I came up here! Loving the dry weather

Was down in Kerry at weekend and it was miles colder too than here.

How you doing anyways deRanged!

deRanged

I always felt it rained less in Dublin than Cork!

I'm good - work is nice and busy, but the getting-things-done kind of busy.
how're you settling in to Dublin life?

Webmonkey

very good.

Ah I'm liking Dublin now I must say. I haven't explored it enough yet but I know in a few weeks time now I'll try find more time. Just exhausted these evenings!

deRanged

There's another costume shop further down North Main St from Mad, You could be right about ending up with dregs though. Both Mad & this other costume shop had bouncers working there today.

Hey corkcomp, yep that's what I was thinking. There were a lot of people trying to get in there though.

deRanged

they've had bouncers in both shops since last week! it's daft - but they've had crazy crowds in the shops any time I've passed.

corkcomp

any boardsies on NGB broadband? According to eircom's site I should be but nothing seems to have changed, same D/L speeds etc

mik_da_man

Not yet, but due it before the end of the year.
Really hope it improves speeds...

Cheer mudokon, bouncers on the door at Mad...well that's just mad...I'll get my coat! Seriously though, are the good people of Cork tearing chunks out of each other for costumes?
