    Is there a way to know where everyone is, or just go round asking strangers are they from the internet? :D

    There's the Know your Galwegians thread. Or we get a boards sign to put on the table.

    I'm usually ok, Asmodean, until I had a few. Then all hell breaks lose :D

    You won't come to any harm, people at the previous meetups were grand. Although I recall I sat at the wrong table when I came along to my first one, that was a bit embarrassing...

    Sounds good to me! I'll definitely pop along next time I'm free and there's one planned. :) Besides I haven't frequented nearly enough of Galways pubs in my 5 years here, criminal I know.

    Sure for the most part, it will be the same for everyone. I haven't been to any Galway boards beers or activities. It's only natural to feel a little sheepish, not knowing anyone. Give it 5 mins and you'll be having a whale of a time.

    I'll print it out so. ;) I'm actually being serious. I probably will. To avoid the awkwardness of looking for peeps myself, I'll just arrive early and claim a table in the name of Boards.

    Brilliant... :D

    Something similar happened to a mate in Monroes. A big group of us were meeting up in there and had planned to order in pizza from next door.

    Yer man walks in, sees a big table with lots of people around it and a pizza in the middle. He leans in to bag a slice, says "Yay... Pizza" and as he looks around him while picking it up realises that the people at the tables are all strangers...

    He just left the slice back down and stepped backwards and retreated to the bar. We were all laughing uncontrollably in the corner. Good times!

    Maybe bushing with some randoms isn't exactly up my street, but meetin up earlier in an actual pub might. (Defeating the purpose of being early and drinkin cheap stuff I know...)

    I should be in at half nine.
    Put a couple of board games on the table, definitely a Jenga anyway.
    Jenga is the secret boards beers game.

    Smashing good time chaps. It was great to meet everyone, or errr... stare across a crowded room at people. Salthouse was jammers! Jenga was way awesome!

    Kinda scared of the pictures to come though... :o

    Great turnout. Really glad I went.

    We pretty much commandeered the place for the night.

    Everyone I spoke to was good craic. I still haven't gone home :D

    Cloud probably thought I was being a bit of a tit :rolleyes: going on about wearing the boards shirt. Didn't know it was him as I didn't really hear properly when he introduced himself. I forget names 10 seconds later anyway so I didn't bother asking again. If anyone can wear the shirt, it's him... haha.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18 climber123


    Really cool night!Everyone was lovely and it was great craic in the Roisin.I
    think I told everyone my username was rockchick;I forgot I was that username on another site!oops.Sore head today,the beer in the salthouse is too nice:)

    Really mad night last night! excellent turnout and I had a brilliant time even though I wasn't drinking... Great to meet so many cool people, even though it was pretty busy... Couldn't believe it but it was 7am when I rolled in home! I too am worried about the pics from the night... Flojo, be nice... :p
