wow this weather is the best

wont make dinner sorry but hope to see you guys for a drink later , hope everyone is enjoying this tropical weather!

Thanks catthinkin, shame you can't make it. I've dropped the numbers on the booking to 6. Where would people like to meet up? I was going to suggest the abbot ale house seeing as we never got to go there the last time.

@ Cadyboo, you don't need vouchers from the Echo but there is an extra discount if you have them apparently. €25 is a bargain anyway.

All agreed then, Abbots at 8ish. I'll be in Costigans before that if anybody fancies an early drink. :pac:

Enjoy your drinks guys! Having a BBQ today and not only is the weather shite but my bum is burnt.

I've never been so uncomfortable.

Maybe from using the bbq as a seat?

Cadyboo · 01-05-2011 12:11pm

Thanks Mudokon for organising last night.:D
The food was fantastic and so was the company. (go on the cheesiness

:D) Next time we should try for early food so we can have drinks after.

they took the doors, walls and a bit of the roof! though I suppose if you're taking an ATM out of a bank there's no point in being subtle about it.

LenaClaire · 02-05-2011 3:35pm

This rain is so yucky

I have been spoiled by the nice weather lately and the rain is bringing me down.

Owen · 02-05-2011 5:59pm

Got drowned. Went out today to do a favour for a buddy who's car wasn't starting. 2 hours of leaning inside a bonnet with rain running down my ass crack wasn't pleasant

I have however rewarded myself with beer, and the necessary ingredients for a curry so hot, it may actually cause the end of the universe by a cascading thermal reaction.

Paintdoctor - you certainly paint a "memorable" picture with that description...!

Webmonkey · 02-05-2011 7:59pm

I can't believe that it's bad down there. It was a fantastic lovely day in Dublin. Blue skys and all. Very windy though!

Hope everyone is doing good here.

deRanged · 02-05-2011 9:01pm

it's a horrible day down here, weather wise.

and those ATM guys apparently didn't manage to take the ATM afterall. I don't know why not, they got just about everything else.

how's Dublin Webmonkey?

Webmonkey · 02-05-2011 9:08pm

Ah Dublin's fine thanks. Quite settled here now. Sorry I didn't get to meet up with you the last time I was down. The day went a bit fecked up!

How's things there

no bother, and aside from the weather all is good in Cork. shame we can't shift the rain up to Donegal/Sligo direction - I'd say they'd be glad of it.

Sephiroth_dude · 02-05-2011 11:04pm

The weather has taken a turn for the worse,got drenched in town today.

Ha ha just got sunburned, badly. Couldn't move all weekend.

never sun bathing again!

Hope everyone had a great weekend. I have a half hour walk home in the rain to look forward to later. What the hell happened, weather is all over the place lately!

akamossy · 03-05-2011 8:58pm

Damn this changing weather and making me sick!! Missing out on work and money... grrr :mad:

wispyman · 04-05-2011 12:08am

Lads (and gals) do you think we should keep putting up the monthly meetup threads going or do ye all think that things are better just done as and when in here??

Just wondered what the opinions are?!

wispyman · 04-05-2011 12:10am
