    I'd love to head to this but I'm doing something on Thursday which may leave me hung over on Friday. We shall see!

    You do realise that's actually less appealing.

    No, O1s1n is a special kind of person, he actually likes the things.

    I'll bring Guinness farts.

    They taste better than the crisps.

    Just an FYI, spice girls game will be making an appearance.

    That'll haunt my dreams tonight :(


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,633 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    So, are all good to go for tomorrow night?

    I'll get the Guinness crisps in!
    It'll be like a salty Arthurs days all up in here! (to be read as if your dad has watched one to many Spike Lee movies (pre-2000, natch))


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,906 ✭✭✭CosmicSmash


    Is this still going ahead tomorrow? I'm not working Saturday so I can still make it.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,633 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    Yeah, we are ready to rock, should be a blast


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,633 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    Pdbhp is incoming!
    Come on EnterNow, make an appearance!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,056 ✭✭✭Sparks43


    Need a lift out and back but myself and my soon to be 10 year old are ready to go.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,633 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    No CD-I or games for same will gain admittance,
    You have been warned!


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 51,889 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    Totally forgot about this, been too busy lately to think about anything else. I'll have to get my car insured tomorrow otherwise I won't be able to make it out.

    Pity if I can't, I have a copy of INXS make my video that needs to be played.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,019 ✭✭✭Touch Fuzzy Get Dizzy


    Raging I won't see Pdbhp, really deva on missing out on the beers in general.
    As I said Friday's really awkward for me now and it isn't 100% Retr0 would have the car anyway, hopefully I'll get to go to the next one.

    Well, I can give lifts to you both if needed, it's only up the road
    won't be the same without you pair!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,725 ✭✭✭The Last Bandit


    Off to Cork for the weekend, so enjoy folks. Although the Spice Girls will unlikely add to the enjoyment :)


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,633 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    The curse of EnterNow strikes :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,244 ✭✭✭MrVestek


    Ahh... I had forgotten about this and arranged to have a few beers with the old man.

    Another time perhaps!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 585 ✭✭✭alpahaeagle


    I should be able to make it tonight......

    Awh stop it'll be just as fun.
    If I had more notice yesterday I could have asked to get off earlier, by the time I get home it'd be an awful rush to get to Dublin and I'm not up for that even for a beers </3.
    Retr0 might take the lift though.

  • Registered Users Posts: 2,041 ✭✭✭pdbhp


    Tallafornia duties and constant tanning will keep anyone busy.
    Working too hard at the moment


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,244 ✭✭✭MrVestek


    I just looked up a review of Wappy Dog.

    It's like Nintendogs only worse and for 3 year olds.

    Kill it with fire.

    I'm sure there'll be one between now and Christmas, Dino's doing a small one right? maybe Co1s or Atavan might have one in the meantime too.
    Tell Mrs Ciderman I was asking for her.

    It's for 5 year old girls..
    The reviews are mostly true about it and the noise from the dog is horrendous, looks great on the shelf though and at € 14.99 in Smyths it is well worth it for the collection.

    Worth it for the collection?

    There are worse things you could collect I suppose... like dog**** and donkey tongues...

    Ok, no excuses now O1s1n, I even bought in the Guinness crisps, sadly overlooked during Diageo Day.

    I can't right now, but if you take the left after Kettles Country House on the Rathbeale Road, go up about a half mile, passing a garden centre on the right, give me a call then if you're still clueless.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,695 ✭✭✭DinoRex


    SIRI here still remembers it. I can email you her co-ordinates.

    Sparks, I just shared a post on facebook that only you should see

    (emailing gave a strange a attachment.)


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,633 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    I will be home and in a retrogaming mood from 8pm, should be a blast, pizzas, nachos and sweets are on standby


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


    I'm picking up Pdbhp at 8 so should be there around 8.30. Want me to bring anything or just a selection of random ****e?
