    Getting excited Angron? :)

    Ah yeah well that's understandable.

    I'd imagine I'll be the same if I ever get the opportunity to get out of Ireland for a bit. I'd love to. Never had passport and wasn't allowed to go on the school tour to Barcelona in 5th year, couldn't afford it.

    Watching our valiant boys in green trounce those damnable Scots. Hope we win so I can give my dad a bit of stick (I'm a Celtic fan too, so seeing Strachan, O'Neill, and a few of the Celtic lads makes my inner fanboy happy:D).



    I am ALL SORTS of jealous!

    I remember my school screwed me out of a tour not once, not twice, but three times.

    Second year, we were supposed to go to England to see a Premier League game and visit a theme park. The year that had done the tour the previous year got drunk over there, so we didn't get a tour.

    Then, in fourth year we were supposed to do a tour where we start in Austria, finish up in Italy. I think it was a week long tour. Despite the year ahead of us (the ones that meant we didn't get a second year tour) getting to do this, it was decided we wouldn't get this. Instead, we'd get two days in Paris that somehow cost more. I think maybe 15-20 people went, I refused cause that was bullsh*t.

    I repeated that year cause of reasons, and the tour regressed even worse. Instead of doing something interesting, it was decided we'd take a trip to the Aran f*cking Islands. Once again, refused to go cause I was not paying money to go to some windy islands just off the coast.

    Not for a few years. I had two big bounding Border Collie/Doberman crossbreeds, they were the biggest smartest hounds I ever knew. We had to give them away when they where two years old (both brothers), I was still in England and my brother didn't look after them while my parents worked full time. Here's a pic of ole Lenny and Larsson. I hope they're doing well.

    Will a hot whiskey do instead?

    Yeah, the second year one was the one that rankled most as we were punished for something that we were never involved in, while the year that did it was punished in no way. The other two were just rubbing salt, and then shards of glass, in the wound.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 236 ✭✭butterbun


    I know the feel about the school trips, Angron. I remember the year before me went to Paris, the year after went to Barcelona. My year went to Lisdoonvarna.

    Yeah that's really sh1tty. Something similar happened with our Debs. We wanted to have it in the Red Cow Hotel but the year before us had had their's there and apparently wrecked the place so they told us to take our business elsewhere..

    I forget the places we had ours (cause I repeated a year I ended up going to two). I think one was in Meath, but the other I couldn't tell you. Those things were just ridiculous for the amount of drama they caused though. One guy projectile vomited onto someone's date before we'd even gotten to the hotel, one of my best friends invited a girl he was kinda going out with, she ended up making out with two or three different lads at it. Someone threw a tantrum over there not being a vegetarian option (which was weird because neither they, nor their date, was even vegetarian). Lots of inane bickering too.

    I didn't have a date for my second grad, so I just ended up inviting one of my guy friends that had a suit from the previous year's grad. Don't regret that, it was great fun.

    ahh ok, cute picture :)

    feel better soon grem *hug*

    my school tours weren't too bad, we went on a farm, on a activity centre, I can't remember the rest. never went outside of Ireland though. My friend at the time went to a
    slaughter house
    as a school tour at a different school, I was hoping and praying we weren't going there!

    Jeepers Angron, your school days weren't the nicest, were they? I brought one of my brother's friend's older brothers and had a great night until he vomited on my shoes on the way home. Nice, eh?

    My brother was at 2, like yourself. One when he was in fifth year. He had done TY and the guys they started with wanted them all to have their debs together so they invited them. That one ended horribly though because one of their classmates took his own life when he arrived home and they all woke up to that news a few short hours later.

    Edit: Apologies for bringing down the thread :o

    It's cute until you realise that half-eaten cinder block is in fact half-eaten:D

    I wouldn't have minded going to a slaughterhouse. Most people are largely in the dark about where their food comes from, it'd be reassuring to know the details, if a tad gross. But that's food I guess! No pretty way to get it from a live cow to your stomach.

    that's true :D not so cute then

    I vaguely remember sitting in a bog in the Midlands trying not to let too much dust coat my sandwich for a school tour.. Sisters of no mercy perhaps? :pac:

    35 degrees!? Where are you, delightful Jason Momoa obsessed person? Come home to cloudy grey Ireland place in one piece, not like a Creme Egg left accidentally on a radiator.

    I played Valkyria Chronicles on PS3 a while back. Most definitely worth the asking price!
