Oh Tudz, you're so beautifully confused

Maguined

Since it is on a Saturday I will book the table on the Wednesday previous so people have between now and then to decide if they want to go, say that they are going and then pull out at the last minute. :P

What time would people prefer for dinner? 6pm ? 7pm? Either way it should be plenty of time to get our feed on before going to TGC beers.

I love Japanese food.

Sadly the 21st is a no go for me as I shall be in Kilkenny/Waterford with Twinny.

Hope you enjoy and I'll try make the next one.

jokettle

I'm moving house that weekend, so no guarantees from me!

Damn it, we're losing so many good souls due to the date.

jokettle

I'm a maybe, but I think I'll most likely stay in; I have a LOT of crAp to move so I'll probably be too tired/unwashed/unable to find clothes to be sociable.

Are you no longer going to be a D4 head? Is that why you're sad and not sociable?

jokettle

Not quite; I'm only moving across the road and down a bit :P

Lamest excuse ever.

Especially when you admit you are only moving across the road and not across town.

jokettle

Does the distance matter, though? I'm still packing up my ENTIRE LIFE, transporting it across a couple of roads (approx. 12 minutes walk from current location) and unpacking it all in a slightly smaller apartment. If it were 12 miles away, would I be more tired? No, because I'd be driving my belongings instead of carrying them. So, so, so shut up :P

I do love me some sake, though.

There'll be no talk of that kind round here mister:p

I expect the mighty DooM and fearsome Nerin to pop by for a chat, to...discuss what happened to the last zed to show its face in the forum:cool:


And on that note, have a good meal everyone...me and fish dont mix, and doubtful I'd be back from Galway on time anyway heh so I shan't be there.

12 miles would mean it would take time for each trip, a 12 minute walk means its much quicker so you get it all done quicker.

I suspect the real cause of the time and tiredness will be you wanting to pack and move like a "girl" ie you are probably planning on neatly folding all your clothing into suitcases and making several trips emptying and refilling suitcases instead of moving like a "boy" ie throwing every scrap of clothing into a pile on top of your bed, wrapping it up in your bedsheets and then dragging the bulging mass to your new place in one go. :pac:

Besides if it is only 12 minutes away can you not get a hoard of friends to help you move? 4 people moving stuff in a loop would get it done in no time.

jokettle

The main problem is moving furniture; there will be beds and lockers and booshelves, and none of this flatpack sh!te either, proper furniture! Hence my probable tiredness. But if I get it all done in good time and I'm not too tuckered out, I will come along. It will just depend on the day, so it's probably best not to book it expecting that my ass will be filling a seat.

You shoot lasers into people brains and map their brains with daily nonchalance so I have full confidence you can move a few sticks of wood in time for delicious food.

I like this positivity! If Jokettle can't do it, nobody can! Which... probably means that if JK doesn't make it then we should all cancel it. Damn the extended logic of slogans!

Damn my feeble brain, I only just realised that Satu 21st is the Heineken final!

So who wants to find a pub around the corner from Ukiyo to watch Leinster win!

reallyrose

Does that mean dinner is off?

Maguined

Oh god no, Kick off is 5pm, Dinner will be 7pm so if the pub is just around the corner it should be grand.

It just means I get to watch the rugby, then go have dinner with you lovely people all before getting smashed at the TGC beers. It's a 3 in 1 night of awesome!

BaconZombie

There are at least 5 pubs with large screens { 1 that will be 90% boggers } within walking/stumbling distince of $Food.

We sup upon the finest oriental cuisine at Ukiyo early in the night and then finish the night drunkenly and debauched while eating the crappiest oriental cuisine out of Charlie's.

I love it when a plan comes together. :cool:
