St. Patrick's Day Pub Crawl (Melbourne)

Coenhead

Nice work Doc!! Sounds beertastic:D Theres also the Corkman pub down on Pelham Street which isn't too far from Peel Street if ya wanna throw it in there.Only 2 days to go.Can I get a woop wooop:P

Doc

If we add in the Corkman then the new route looks like this (see attachment at bottom)

Revised times would be

12:00-1:30 = P J O'Briens (Southbank Prom)

2:00-3:00 = The Irish Times Pub (427 Little Collins St)

3:30-5:00 = Pugg Mahones (106-112 Hardware St)

5:30 - 7:00 = The Celtic Club (320 Queen St)

7:30 - 9:00 = The Drunken Poet (65 Peel St)

9:30 - 11:00 = The Corkman (160 Leicester St, Carlton)

11:30 - Finish = Bridie O'Reilly's (62 Little Collins St)

Still a bit of a walk to get back to Bridie's but we can always tram it.
7 Pubs should be more then enough (possibley too many?). What do people think?

If the majority is ok with this then the plan is we meet up at P J O'Briens at 12 and follow the route shown bellow. If you have a suggestion to make the route better or to alter the time we spend in each place please post something quickly as we need to get it sorted.

I might try and make a Boards.ie Paddy’s day T-shirt to wear so you will know who the hell I am!

My mobile number is: 0405965513 in case anyone gets lost and needs to find us.

The only problem you might find is getting in to Bridies at 11.30 as it's likely to be bunged.

Don’t bring me problems bring me solutions!

Should I drop The Corkman back off? Do we want to end in Bridies?

I'd say if you wanted to do all those pubs, you'd be better off starting at the Corkman and doing PJ's second last.

Abstaining from alcohol for lent and getting on the piss at 10:30am can sometimes lead to epiphanies but occasionally drunkenness...
