    so plans are afoot to have a vapemeet in carlow on the 6th (maybe the seventh.. but people seem to be gelling around the 6th) of october, first saturday of the month

    its not going to be anything fancy like vapemeet, if vendors wnat to come and bring stuff that's up to them but like.. there'll be no room for stalls or anything

    itll just be vapers meeting up for a few drinks (non alcoholic if you're driving, naturally) and maybe some food or something

    preliminary plans are noonish to some time early evening.. 7 or 8 maybe
    once it hits 9 the town will start filling up with students/drunks and while people are more than welcome to stay out.. I'll be buggering off home :)

    it's not an overnight deal, pretty much just.. come down in the morning/afternoon.. hang out, head home in the evening but considering most of vapefest was spent just hanging out chatting to people it should be a bit of fun

    there'll be no workshops or anything but anywhere more than e vapers get together some twat breaks out a rebuildable so if you're thinking of coming and are having trouble with a dripper or a tank rebuildable, bring it along and the brain trust can try and break it


    no idea on a venue yet but just about every pub in carlow has a big covered (practically indoor) smoking area so even if no one lets us vape indoors we'll be able to chill out in a smoking area in one of carlows many fine alcohol addiction centres. I'm going to wander around town tomorrow and ask a few places if they'd be cool with a small/large crowd of vapers turning up on a saturday afternoon and spending money in their establishment.


    leave a shout in here if you think you'll be coming along. like i said it's nothing formal, nothing fancy. just an afternoon out in Irelands second capital.

    so it is...

    Don't forget to mention the wall! (sneak peek ---> here) I'm told it's one of the main reasons to visit Carlow. That and the pubs and the Tesco.


  • Registered Users Posts: 689 ✭✭✭sept09baby


    Can't make it that weekend but may have to invade Carlow some other time. That wall sounds too good to resist

    Vape meet in Carlow on the 6th or pay deposit on Glastonbury tickets on the 7th...

    lol

    how much money you planning on spending at the vapemeet?!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,484 ✭✭✭Elbow


    lol

    how much money you planning on spending at the vapemeet?!

    For the 478km round trip i'll need the following: Juice (petrol not e-liquid), alcoholic beverage's, a kebab, panadol, hot chicken roll and a bottle of lucozade sport so around €125

    2 x £50 deposits for Glastonbury = £100 or €125.69


    Decisions decisions.......

    ye gods

    no busses from cork to carlow? :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,484 ✭✭✭Elbow


    Turns out there is via waterford :P

    Only problem is that a return ticket is costing €35 each and taking 6 hours 50 minutes each way.

    I would rather roll balls naked through thistles, nettles and hedgehogs for 478km then spend €35 to sit on a bus for 13 hours and 40 minutes!


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 23,556 ✭✭✭✭Sir Digby Chicken Caesar


    hehe yeah I checked it after I posted.. 36 quid, jesus christ and 13 hours... ye, noweh


    train costs 60 but is only six hours all in... guess its not really worth it when you consider how much simpler it is to just drive

    man, travel is expensive.


    if you can get a lift up on the thurs/fri beforehand you can crash at mine until the vapemeet if you want :)

    Sounds very painful, I would like to do that to the politicians if they do the dirty on us.

    Train would would end up costing nearly €100 by the time i'd have driven to cork and paid for parking for the night, car by far the cheapest and quickest option :D

    Cheers for the offer but one of herself's friends is living right behind tully's and I presume if I say i'm going to Carlow herself will want to come so i should have a bed for the night (Haven't asked or anything but I persume there'll be no problem considering they moved in with us for a week in july :p)

    hah, right behind tullys?
    how delightfully loud I'm sure that is

    Ya pretty much, if you look out their kitchen window your looking at the back wall of tullys beer garden :D

    next time i'm out drunk in town i'm going to wander down that street shouting 'which one of you knows elbow'


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,674 ✭✭✭DirtyBollox


    this going ahead?


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 23,556 ✭✭✭✭Sir Digby Chicken Caesar


    i dunno

    doesn't seem to be much interest...


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,674 ✭✭✭DirtyBollox


    Thats a pity, more time to play my ps3 so :D


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 23,556 ✭✭✭✭Sir Digby Chicken Caesar


    actually.. this almost definitely isn't going ahead

    doing the budget for this week I realised I have 50 quid altogether :) can't afford to spend an afternoon in town, still need to get food and stuff out of that 50


    I guess the lesson learned here is it's a good thing I didn't try to organise vapefest

    I was interested, but don't think I could have made it this weekend anyway.

    yeah, might have been too close a date

    maybe somebody who isn't a hopeless ****up will organise one for november :)

    should give people plenty of time to sort stuff out
