    Is it just me or is there absolutely no discussion board on www.irishfilmboard.ie?

    Am I just missing an obvious link?

    I can't see any forum myself either. They must have it well hidden to keep out us plebs.

    Pff thats not news at all, the very first boards awards in Spy bar in 7 years ago Dav was MC and wore his Tux, for as long as I've known him he's always had suits, just cos you have never seen him in one :P

    Randy, just cause the only suit you're frequently seen in is your birthday suit, doesn't mean the rest of us have no style :p

    Thanks very much guys and gals. The Award spent the weekend on my mantelpiece and has migrated into the office with me this morning. We need some shelves for all these Web Awards :D Also, this year's award is made out of granite and is not the sort of thing you'd like to drop on your toe. They're getting more and more dangerous as the years go on it seems. I figure next year's awards to be made out of either lasers or depleted uranium or something along those lines...

    Whilst I'm here, I just want to say a big thank you to Damien and the team who put the show together, it was an excellent and very smoothly run event at a really great location (Mansion House). Rick O'Shea on MC duties was a good laugh too.

    Finally a huge thank you and well done to all of you Members, Mods, CMods and Admins who make this site what it is. We couldn't do any of this without you, so give yourselves a well earned pat on the back for a job well done :)

    Thanks again folks.
