From the Weather Forum:

FRIDAY NIGHT some heavy rain moving north across Wales and western England will edge into coastal areas near the east coast and eventually may bring 5 to 15 mm rain overnight to parts of north and central Leinster and east Ulster. Lows near 9 C. Staying dry further west with moderate northwest winds at times.

SATURDAY and SUNDAY will be somewhat improved with partly cloudy skies, moderate westerly winds and after any rain comes and goes on Saturday morning in the north and east, just a few scattered showers likely. Highs near 17 C.

could be a sup of rain around in the afternoon/evening

I got a carpark pass as a person with a Disability. Do I need to book a space through the app? As far as I recall, I was told in an email that they will have our names on a list when we get there......?

Edit: scrap that - it's answered in an email that I have.

Dave Mustaine has hijacked Yr.no

I use yr.no for work and I find it easily the best (along with windguru for wind direction/strength etc) of the weather apps.

However, who the **** really knows?

Cause I'm sure some of you are dying to know but my Metallica dress arrived from Boohoo and its basically a night dress :pac::pac:
Feck it, I'll be cosy on the bus home!!

Was asked to come into work to volunteer for an event they're running on Saturday and had a very good "hahahaha noooooo, kinda busy" response.

All in all - super looking forward to this now!! :D

I bought it too and oh my god I was in KNOTS laughing when I tried it on yesterday. What is with the sleeves?? It’s like a men’s 4XL T-shirt that they’re calling a dress!

Looking at Accuweather for the weekend. Saturday looks not too shabby.

Lads I'm having a nightmare with parking.

I booked it through the eventz app (awful) as directed. I made a hash of it though and put my email address in incorrectly. I only realised when I got no confirmation of booking off of them.

Do you need any proof of booking off of them when you arrive or do they just have your reg on a list?

To make matters worse a friend got told his booking was cancelled due to a technical fault and to rebook.

Tried to get an answer through their customer support but its worse than useless. 1 week and I've gotten 2 responses from them, both just looking to confirm details.

I've no idea if I have any parking =/.

Paddy@CIRL

Can you not just arrive & park as per previous years?

GLaDOS

First time at Slane so can't comment, but MCD press release said to book in advance.

Go a bit lower, better getting 130 than nothing at this stage

Was looking at Toutless, some tickets are going for as low as 40 and 50 Euro, wouldn't be surprised if you could pick up one outside the venue for 20 on the day.

Kirk wants to do the Ronnie Rising medley they recorded a few years ago live at some point.

I''m camping with them. We booked it but will hand over the money on the day to the lads directing us to the campsite like we did for GnR according to the booking email.

There was an adjacent field at GnR that they used for cars that weren't camping - what do you want to know? The two times we drove we didn't pre-book and just got guided into a field by traffic cops on the day so not sure if it was ran by the people in your link

NufcNavan

Will there be shuttle buses back to Navan after the gig?
