    I noticed some of the other forums are doing it, so I thought I'd throw it out there. Vote accordingly and rest will work itself out. Decide which night by clicking here

    Tried to organise this before, nobody can ever agree on where to drink

    Starting downstairs in the Pembroke, solved. I thought the date would be the problem.

    Do this then, maybe:

    1) Decide on a venue (done, right?)
    2) Decide on a list of about 5 possible dates
    3) Create a google spreadsheet that can be edited by anyone and link to it here
    4) List the dates in columns along the top
    5) People put their name under every date they can attend
    6) Longest list wins

    Best bet is try arrange something with Waterford forum for perhaps a south east thing?

    Right, as well suggested by fabbydabby here's a list of dates, I came up with. There's a midweek option and a weekend option. Each date you are available write your name in that column. I've left the dates against Christmas out and this weekend is also out to give people a chance.

    Only four of us have put our names on the Excel sheet. At this rate, we could hold the Kilkenny Beers in a telephone kiosk (bring some cans of Dutch Gold)

    Well, I say the four of us go anyway, wouldn't mind a few beers next Wednesday.

    I'm sorry but I wouldn't touch Dutch Gold, I'm a man of a different class and taste:

    If it isn't in a medicine bottle, you've paid to much.

    While I'm here, would the other 4 that are interested like add their names to the list as Wednesday coming is looking favourite.

    That foul elixir hails straight from the groin of lucifer. It is vile beyond words, and yeilds the most painful, revolting, emotionally fragile hangovers known to man.

    If you ever want to feel like killing yourself after drinking three or four cans, buy a four pack of this.

    I have boards.ie knee warmers, I'll throw one in the middle of the table. Actually I just thought of it, I drink Bulmers light, I must be the only one that'll be there drinking it.
