It will be a success! I was so worried about my table quiz and it went well! This gig will be a success too

grames_bond

hope so pem! We have the comedians, we have the venue, we have the prizes - it's just the crowd I am worried about! We need an audience!

If we don't get that none of it will be worth while!

You're inviting this crowd. I think you should be more worried that they will turn up. :P

I hope every single member of tGC will be there - no better crew for a comedy gig!!

Would head up to it except I'll probably be in a heap - Staff night in Kilkenny the night before - will probably crawl back to Cork for leaba - going putting on my heavy winter duvet cover and stuff tonight - getting up will be far more difficult in the mornings - this will probably test my going to the gym before work in the mornings plan to the limit.....

Haha, I'll use that as an answer so!

Not all week.

Mon night/Tue morning.

Thurs/Fri

Mon/Tue

ick.

Panthro

Jaysus, that's a bit shít! I used to work Sun/Mon/Tues nights on 12 hr shifts, in the end I got fed up trying to adjust back to "normal" hours on my days off so I just stayed on night shift mode on my days off! A 36hr awake stint wasn't uncommon to me!
Had a mate on the same hours roughly, we may have had beverages at 7am the odd time!:o
:pac:

bleh.

It's not shift work; I was in this morning for my normal day (well, left at 3 cos I knew I was back in tonight)

Operators don't allow work during the day time so offpeak hours are when I get to work.

yay...

Yep, a bear. Young black/brown bear. Not sure which cause it was dark and he was in the bushes. Big bastard too, considering he was only like half-grown.

No job yet, but the course is going well. First day today. Was out with no practice, wearing new boots, riding new skis. Did maybe 5 hours skiing. Absolutely wrecked. Only 9pm here but I think it might be bedtime.

How goes Canada for yourself?

It's stopped now. I'm fascinated by lightening. Especially the fork lightening we get here. Could sit and look at it for hours.

You know, back when I first met you, I thought to myself that you would make a fine fire safety officer. True story.

Really? I instantly thought, "I wouldn't leave him in charge of a chair"

I am sure if a fire broke out in the gents club Panthro would step in and lead us all to safety, like moses led his mates through the jungle or whatever it was.

Sure he would. He's just lock the place up and leg it.

True, once you hit Wednesday and get it over with it's all gravy seeing as Thursday is like a dress rehersal for Friday

Bloc Party are playing Dublin next year early on but they're on Tuesday and Wednesday...might try go Tuesday and work out of Dublin or something....haven't been too fond of their latest stuff though

I was on Ticketmaster earlier looking into getting tickets to a match for my Dad for Christmas and decided to give a look to see who's playing Dublin and Cork soon


Damn you Dublin with your far better acts!
