    I'm cool with that.

    Only thing though, the central hotel library bar is always very quiet. Being a library bar and all. Reckon they'd mind a big gang of noisy internet loons?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,183 ✭✭✭✭Atavan-Halen


    We can always just meet there and move on from there if need be.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 52,036 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    I might have to turn up a little later. Up to my eyes in college work but will defo be there.

    I'll make it along anyway.

    Won a ticket to the The Entrepreneur Show in the RDS tomorrow, so I may pop along to that for a bit first...

    But are we looking at the afternoon here? Around 3 or so?

  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 52,036 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    I'll be at this but it might be after 5 when I arrive, or maybe earlier if I'm having a procrastinating day. No later than 6 anyway.

    Huh? I don't get it. Are you or your family planning to kill off a relative or friend around this time or is the person expected to die around then? Sorry if I seem disrespectful though, just joking :P Seriously though, sorry for your loss. We'd love to have you over if you could make it.

    Oh I know sorry, it sounds weird I'm laughing as well. No my uncle died Friday and it can take over 2 weeks for a funeral to happen I hear sometimes it's 3 because they only do it on certain days or something, I'm not sure.
    I'll see how things go but I don't really think so, but I promise I'll do my best to go I'm mad to go like

    Ah no, I understand. It's different in the UK. In Ireland we usually bury people within a few days of their departure here, but if we can at all we can always do it a day or two after you get back. I just thought the weekend would be a good time because people might not be working or studying and also I don't think I would be working.

    Oh I'd prefer it on the weekend myself, I'll ask my mother about it tomorrow we kinda talked about it enough today, I mightn't be going at all I just presumed I am. I'll know tomorrow sure and then I'll only have to sort out money

    Yep, I'll bring it along. Dunno what games to bring though. Might have to put up a list and see what people would like to play.

    I can't drink more than two beers or so, so I'll be sober enough to make sure nobody breaks it :D
