    I wouldn't worry too much. Theres quite a lot of people in the same boat. Wednesday and Thursday are where they really pick up. That said, every night from Tomorrow onwards the Lodge will be jointed.

    The local nightclub. Its about a 5 minute walk from UL. Trust me you'll get to know it very well in due course. I hated it for the first month or so because it was packed and run down but you grow to love the place.

    dont worry all the lodge or mollys ask for is your student id for the su gig's you'll need another form of id tho . the stables only ask for your student id as long a you have the club sticker for it (you can get one in the su fairly handy like )

    Mollys aaaaaaaaaaaalways want a 2nd form of ID if you've a first year ID card. Trust me. Lodge started asking for age this year. Just get a sticker off someone who already has theirs and that'll do for the lodge.



    @Lilly92

    Students Union :)

    And you have to be 18 to get the sticker from reception

    The Calvin Harris tickets are 15euro and Trooms riiipp students off anyway particularly during Fresher´s Week.
    I got one because a/ It´s Calvin Harris. Performance or not, I want his babies b/ Obviously going to play some decent tunes, c/ Trooms would be charging a tenner regardless and at least, on the Thursday night of Fresher´s Week, I know I´m going to get in somewhere and not waste my time going to Molly´s, queuing for Angel Lane and ending up in Trooms anyway.

    Just my ole logic on it :D
    Can´t freakin wait.
    Have been abroad since June 23rd so to come home on Saturday and then to UL on Sunday for a great epic week is getting me by!

    Near the college there's the lodge. That's awesome and where you'll end up going more than 50% of the time.
    All the other clubs are in town then.

    but your student ID has your date of birth on it?:confused:

    Anyone know how they react to cancelled passports? I've made thirty or forty in my time so i've kinda gotten the hang of faking passports at this stage:D

    And i've an NUIG college card that looks like me.....except its nuig...will the likes of the lodge accecpt a college card from another college or do offers and the likes only apply to the UL students?

    ....god I hate learning each clubs different policies/offers all over again....

    Being u18 is the worst haha.

    So the student IDs dont have you're date of birth? So that and a convincing fake ID will get you into the lodge and Molly's?

    What about the likes of Trooms and Angel Lane?

    Angel Lane is supposed to be 21's- though that doesnt explain how I've been in there many times over the summer...

    You'll have little luck with trooms and a fake ID unfortunately.

    Damn, they good at spotting them yeah? Friend of mine makes them and he gets into our local club all the time with his, but it isn't too hard to not get ID'd there.

    So long as I can get into the lodge and Molly's I'll be happy.Only 3 months till I'm 18 anyway. (big night out anyone? :P )

    Not much gets past them really- they put them under uv light sometimes and then its pretty obvious...

    By all means decide for yourself, but I'd hate to see what would happen if there was a fire in the place or something. Plus the stairs is feckin lethal...
