I think myself and Agent Smith are booking together but that offer is much appreciated mate. Thanks.

Really looking forward to this. Never been to Galway... well I have been but I was really young and sick as a dog.

You're allowed drink on the train right?

The train is baddass. You can even buy drink on it on Good Friday.

Myself and Agent Smith are planning to book a hostel together but if anybody's still looking for accommodation, I'll add more numbers to a bigger room. Just shoot me a PM and let me know before I book it.

It'll be roughly €25 per person. There's a 10% deposit that is to be paid which you can just pay me back on the day. It'll only be a couple of quid and the rest is payable on arrival.

I'll book it tomorrow so I'd kinda need to know by the end of the day.

The hostel is this one by the way:

I know loads of mammies of a certain age who do this! Apparently, it was a really popular wedding present to give back in the day, hence every household had one.

Well if people PM me before 8pm tonight, I'll pop down to Rouge and provisionally book a table with a rough idea of numbers.

Why PM? Because it takes a bit of effort and only people interested in going might PM:cool:

Rouge

Forgot to say, thanks so much for organising the eats, Daisies!

Really looking froward to this. LOVE Galway!

I think you will find that in the first post* it is stated that by voting in the poll, you commit to paying for my dinner and drinks.

Big Mac or a McChicken Sandwich? We'll be nice and go large and all!

I think the thread's going to need another poll..
Get Daisies a Small, Medium or Large takeaway!

Good to hear the Otis will be bellending himself along, whoop!

Enjoy your suit if the weather is like this! :P

Wait a minute! If the weather is really poor, and it is Galway after all, one wearing a suit might have an excuse to compliment it with an overcoat. Hmmm, suiting up is getting more and more appealing.

And for the record, if it is warm and sunny, my suit is a three-piece.

Out of interest daisies, for everyone else are converse ok in this bar or is it a brown shoe affair?

I'm guessing its like most places and doesn't matter but its a long way to go and be wrong.

Yes, a 3 piece to a beers! What's wrong with that?

I mean, this is The Gentlemen's Club, right?

awec, Kelly's is pretty relaxed so cons are perfectly fine.

Sorry mate, didn't mean there's anything wrong with it

Defo won't be wearing mine. I'm not risking it getting booze spilled over it or it being stinking of smoke. Plus I have to wear mine at a wedding 2 days before the beers, so it might not even be in any shape to wear! :pac:

But each to their own of course, sounds like there'll be a few of you suited and booted anyway!

Damn right there's nothing wrong with it! Suits are awesome, when you don't have to wear one every day.

Besides, I'm still not fully decided. I'm leaning towards a suit alright, but I dunno, it seems very formal. And I don't want to look out of place.

I look amazeballs in a suit,

A three-piece, you say? If I find a waistcoat that goes with the suit I'm going to be wearing, I might just wear a three-piece too.

Haha.

You lot better actually wear suits. I don't wanna turn up in a three piece suit to find the rest of your are in jeans and tshirts. But then I'd get over it when I remember how amazing I look in a suit!

Kev.OC

Screw it, I'll suit up! Make a good first impression on everyone for my first beers.

Three piece suite, cufflinks, completely redundant tie pin, I'm going all out!

Based on the fantastic weather we are having I am ditching the suit idea as it's just way too warm to be sweltering in a suit for some beers!

Pfffft, you take the jacket off, loosen the tie, roll up the shirt sleeves et voila, suit smartness without the sweltering effect of a suit :pac:
