When you found out it was a fake vid or when you saw that an idiot got burned doing something idiotic, ruining your faith in humanity for another day?? :pac:

When I found out it was fake, I cursed Jimmy, cursed him I say!
I had kind of wanted it to be true, after all the twerking talk, I thought it was funny to see someone (literally) get burned by twerking.
I'm a horrible human being.:eek:

Fairly seasoned, I was college for 3 years up here, then took a year out, which then became a 2 year out, but now I'm back..and 4th college beckons.
And I'm fairly out of touch college wise!:(

Would love to go away somewhere for a weekend, this year has rotted the life and soul out of me. Argh, stressed.

Long bank hol coming up in Oct, perhaps look into doing something for it? Even take a spin to some part of the country that weekend. I was looking at discover Ireland's website (the lady is coming over so I want to show her a few places) there's heaps of activities on for Halloween.
Might be just the ticket for you!

The Black Oil · 13-09-2013 8:37am

Have ye seen that video (brilliantly edited) from the Canadian couple documenting their time in Ireland? Makes you realise there is so much to do here.

Panthro · 13-09-2013 8:40am

yeah I sure did.
It made me feel homesick (when I was sitting in the dining room of my home house!!)
It was really well put together, Bord Failte should be allover that.

Watched it just when it hit big on Vimeo and it shamed me to be honest.

I like to believe that I've done a lot of what Ireland has to offer and that made me realise that I haven't really.

So next year from April on, I'm hitting the road every weekend and doing it all ! I'll stick the tent in the boot just in case and see how I go !

Cracking video and a lot better than Bord Failte have ever come up with !

The Black Oil · 13-09-2013 8:45am

Absolutely.
Have to get out to the Cliffs of Moher at some point.

Been there ! Well worth a look !

The caves nearby are a must if you're down that way too !

Liam McPoyle · 13-09-2013 9:36am

Morning all, happy Friday and for me it's pay day!

Exam is tomorrow week so will be a beer free weekend.Having date night tomorrow night but apart from that it will be quiet.

I've a stag in Cork City mid October, approximately 20 blokes going.

Any recommendations of decent places that are stag friendly down there.

Age group would be early 30s upwards, total beer monsters but not bowld with it.

We are staying in Jury's Inn if that makes the geography easier.

Stag friendly and close to Jurys would be The Woolshed which is next to The Porterhouse, quick stroll up the road and you have Cavanaghs and The Courthouse (bit small for 30 though) - go on up from there and you have the Classic which is a nice bar downstairs and a club upstairs if that's what you're looking for, otherwise you can stoll on a bit further to the Woodford which is a late bar on weekends I believe, other than that I'd say the Savoy will have plenty of space for you but it's €10 entry to a club that's young enough.

Alternatively you can go from there to Oliver Plunket St. which has Voodoo rooms (large queues) probably the best club in Cork atm, and a couple of late bars in The Oliver Plunkett, The Bróg and the Old Oak - all of which will have a nice mix of normal & weird Irish & foreigners.

I'd say start at the Porterhouse - perfect start with loads of different beers, shuffleboard & plenty space, stroll to the Courthouse & Cavanaghs, Classic and decide where you want to go from there - You can go to all those pubs with literally 10mins of walking

Was just saying to a guy I work with - we're back to the dark depressing days - looking fairly depressing in Cork right now....

Only alcohol can cure it
