When they came along first in the late 80's I used to get people coming up to me in the street going "Howya Leo!", and indeed it got me into a few places and got me up to the bar in packed nightclubs a bit faster too! I'll take that as a compliment so ilovesleep
How are you fixed for Saturday night? Can I buy you a drink?

Pretty good crowds around today in spite of the weather.
The walkways in South Park seem to be sinking into the mud in spots... but I guess the Claddagh people didn't call the area 'The Swamp' for nothing.
Met Eireann 3 hour forecast suggests a damp squib rather than fireworks... hope they are wrong

Anyway, would people generally recommend a trip down? Bearing in mind I'd be travelling, is it worth it? Would tomorrow night be any good?
There will be craic whatever night!:D
I am friends with people in at least four of the local bands playing and one thing that came up was they noticed people found it difficult to know what time the smaller acts were on from the 'programme', and where things were.
I mentioned the Salthill stage for example (it's actually right beside Seapoint on the prom), which is listed for Thurs and Fri as 'youth bands'. If ye look at who's playing on those days, there's a few 'far from youths'
who would be fairly well known (and well worth a look) Galway and Limerick bands.
Have a wander, you will have a great time!0 -

Went out on rib a today ,€15 for 30 minutes and was definitely worth it. Went out and was right beside Camper and Groupama while they were sailing (if anyone was watching the live stream when they were entering Galway, we were a bit closer than when the cameraman was filming) and had some helicopter do a very low flyby which kind of topped it off really
haven't a clue what it was, no registration number or anything, just all green. We were then asked if we wanted to have some fun so he cued the music on the onboard speakers and let those 2 250HP outboards liven up a bit :cool:. Anyone got €85,000 rib? Wouldn't mind becoming your friend haha 0 -

Abu Dhabi's keel being repaired after it is thought they damaged it by snareing a lopster pot on the last leg from Lorient.
The yacht was levered on to its side in the Galway dock using halyards and ropes attached to the mast and the team worked from a dinghy for more than eight hours to repair the damage.
More on the story here.0 -

This sounds great, Brad.
