    Are people just selling parts at this or full bikes too? I have a few I could bring if there's interest.

    Don't see a problem with full bikes as long as they are yours to sell!

    Eh, Blanch are technically a northside club - Strawberry Hall (meeting point) being on the north bank of the Liffey, after all (even if the address might be Chapelizod). :pac:

    Ahh, the Strawberry Hall used to be a nice pub, with bagatelle played in the lounge. Nice family running it.

    Where's the sale? Might bring me front panniers and racks (and a spanner to take the racks off).

    the strawberry hall was where me and the lads used to go when learning to drink (even though i was a non-drinker at the time); declan used to put mix tapes together for us (i'd never heard of big black or public image ltd until then) and entertain us with his stories about being a medium. i still don't know if he was sincere or trying to wind us up.
    we used to hear stories about the wren's nest; a real 'local pub for local people' as the stories would have it. was enough fun walking to the straw, without having to deal with walking to the wren's nest.

    There were three local pubs: the Wren's, the Angler's and the Strawberry Hall. All were real local pubs where local people drank. Perhaps the Wren's was the local-est, though, all right.

    it was a 45 minute walk for me to get to the strawberry hall, and this was actually the nearest of the three. we used to walk down the esker from the sandpits cottages onto the liffey.

    I may try to get to this (do i need to confirm by a specific day)?

    I have a shed load of Team Sky related stuff including quite a few jerseys (some signed) and a limited edition (50) T shirt that was given after Froomes 1st TdF win.

    Frankly its clogging up my cycling drawer :eek:

    Would it be in order to list here, some of the items, that I intend bringing to the Sale?
    Will there be a charge to sellers?

    I think it will be ok to list here BUT NO DEALING OR TRADING here.
    WRT charging a fee ...No. We wont charge but if someone wants to make a donation to a charity that myself and Rob decide or to the Santa Strike Force here at Xmas then I don't think there will be a problem.
