Did they not screen it in the Ould Ormonde??? Saw a few movies there.:D

No idea - most likely. But where's the fun in that to a lunatic 17 year old in possession of the key to a new MKII(?) Golf!

Now you're getting me thinking about the late night screenings they used to have - like 11 or midnight? Remember seeing Kevin Costner as Robin Hood there around the same time and Silence of the Lambs both followed by chips in Aprilles and long walks home!

Aprilles Grill! I worked in Xtravision up on Kilmacud road beside the pub. Always grabbed my takeaway in Aprilles on the way back to my flat in Cabinteely! Often detoured to Hollywood nights!

Hilarious, Hollywood Nights was where it was at back then :P
We used to also hang out in that pub in the Montrose hotel - Fitzsomethings? as well as Deerpark and then also the Mad Hatter and The Purty. But my video store was in Blackrock - opposite the library. I remember they even used to have an old Betamax shelf!

Yup! I played in a band in there, Dingy kip.:D Drummer.:eek: Not from that area, but spent my college days around it. Art College. Bakers Corner was my spot.:D

Grandeeod, pretty sure we crossed paths!
There were a lot of great (90's) party houses out that way too, between Monkstown and Sandycove/Dalkey. Dublin was a different country back then. That scene was all about the 'Roses, Happy Mondays, John Squire was the real hero and Shaun Ryder the messiah :P
Something Happens, yer man from Cactus World News and Glen Hansard were all knocking about the area then, shower of lunatics all

EDIT: sorry all. Told ye - nostalgia side. Blame Grandeeod for distracting me from 2019

Ended up at party last night and wasn't home until 02.45 so I foresee a quiet day today. Going for a walk first.

Armchair-side, thinking of what to do for the day. Have my tan done for the communion tomorrow, wanna get my nails done and I need to go get a top to wear tomorrow, and a few bits for dinner. But right now I’m comfy and don’t wanna move

Sun has broken through, time to head to the garden with my first cup of tea of the day

Witchie

Just about hanging together after rehearsals. Hungover City, population Witchie.

Went for a few quiet ones after work yesterday. 12 hours later we stopped drinking.

On our way to an all night bar found a random guy lying drunk on the footpath. After much cajoling and threats of calling the police or an ambulance, we managed to get him into a cab. He was Irish, from Limerick. Hope he is ok.

Going to my local supermarket for supplies, i.e. french bread and cheese then home to sleep until Tuesday
