Junior Cert board gathering?

Caoimhe89

It's delicious... it's just chocolate as a meal... with whipped cream. I love it.

Distinguishing features - red hair. and probably jeans.

In closing; Fobia: Dublin > Galway. Even if the gathering sucks there are numerous other good things you can do in Dublin.

Aye, I'll head down. If I can't find somewhere to kip if I'm down on my own or if I can't convince someone to come meet nerd friends with me and stay overnight in a hostel I'll just get a late bus back....see ye there

[Edit] Anyone fancy meeting me in *insert bus station* and showing me the way to this "Stephens Green" malarky? Otherwise I may be a few hours late [/edit]

PurpleFistMixer

If it's Busaras, I have a vague idea where it is and should be able to meet you there.

And if you're desperate you can probably stay in my house. I'm sure my family wouldn't* object to a random internet stranger at all. =D




*wouldn't may also be used interchangably with 'quite possibly would'

That's the one, bus house. Good good.

If anyone doesn't show up due to weather (or any other reason really ), I shall hunt ye down and beat ye with spoons. Metaphysical spoons, of course. I'm sure the dublinheads know somewhere that's not outdoors and will let people from Galway in.

But... it's educational. Obviously since the only thing we all have in common which each other is having done the Junior Cert, our conversations will be entirely based on education and uh... the pursuit and furthering of... education.

Victor

I should be able to attend, but I'm working Friday evening.

Fobia, you are welcome to come, but do talk it out with your parents. Invite one of them a friend if the "bigger" people will allow it. Its one thing to be lost (or have no money) in you own city, another completely in another.

Fobia wrote:

But...everyone's seen my photo....everyone....

Yeah but one time you wear wearing a ninja mask and the other time panda make-up.

If you guys want an educational excuse how about we go see a museum or something or is that too educational?

PurpleFistMixer

Actually, I don't believe I've seen either of those pictures and demand them instantly.

Yes you have, you posted them. One was CTYI and the other on a plane.

PurpleFistMixer

Nope, Fobia wasn't at CTYI.

You're confusing me with PFM, which I think we'll both find a little offensive consdering we're of different genders .

Re: The old people's talk. Well I'll be meeting PFM at the bus house so getting lost shouldn't be a problem, and will probably meet my cousin after that. Though you may think that we're all little kids, 16 isn't *that* young...

We can always huddle under trees or the gazebo deely...

Victor

Pesky space aliens. Foiled again. Yes, I do confuse the two of you, must be an avatar thing. i also thought that quote said "... nobody's seen my photo......"

I need more sleep.

You can *all* meet me at the bus station!

Rozabeez

I would but where the hell is it?

Fobia

Havent a clue.

Strokesa

Its beside that...bridge. With ads on it. Maybe.

Flashling

My friend has a pop-up map of Dublin (oh yes! ), so I'll be fine...What time do you want us there?

Irishstabber

Busaras is...If u walk down Talbot from O'Connell street and turn left at the end there you should see it somewhere( I Hope ) :rolleyes:

Fobia

Flashling wrote:

That sounds wrong.

Well according to here, the bus comes in at 13.10, so I guess around then? 50 mins is enough time to talk to the place right?

/me knows nothing of Dublin geography.

Flashling

Eh, try 15 minutes? But sure, I'll be there, with some kind of recognisable item....(that means a big sign saying Fobia.)

PurpleFistMixer

Hm. 50 minutes MIGHT do it...

If we wanted to walk to BRAY.

I'm kidding.

That'd take like 4 hours.


But yeah, if it is where I think it is (don't worry I will find it) it'll only take like 20 minutes... maybe half an hour to get to Stephen's Green from there.

And yeah, I have that pop-up map of Dublin. It's great.

Irishstabber

I think that this will turn into some sort of freakshow lol

PurpleFistMixer

What else were you expecting?

Ah yes Abbey Street, I know it well. Almost got hit by a Luas there if my memory serves me.

I have an OS map of Dublin anyway, I will thoroughly know the area before Friday.

I probably wont see the sign, but how could having someone hold a sign of your internet name not be cool?

Hey...the horn/tail removal surgery didn't go as planned ok? No need to be so mean about it


[Edit] How about we put the time back to 1.30? That way I can either be on time or fashionably late. I don't *do* arriving early [/edit]

Irishstabber

So can somebody write out exactly all the details?..Have to meet somebody in town at 1 so I'll be in early. After that im all good. Any time does me well.

Numina

looking back through this, I'm getting lost and confused, where the hell are we meeting up and what are we doing???

Fobia

St Stephens green entrance (the one Victor had in his post), 1.30pm, pants are not allowed, mats for twister compulsary.

Rozabeez

what Fobia said, BE THERE. I'm eh...bringing a non-boardsie or maybe two for the entertainment and because I've run out of time to see people and whatnot.

Piste

Can I come too?





Y'know, just for entertainment value?

Flashling

Wait, aren't you....not a person who has just done the junior cert? But hey! The more the merrier. So, half one then? And Fobia, you'll see the sign.....It'll be pink.

Irishstabber

See all you crazy cats tomorrow

Irishpimpdude

Irishpimpdude

Flashling

Well, when's the next one?

Fobia

The next time I go to dublin/ the next time ye come to Galway.

*thrusts*

Diarmsquid

I was unsure about being allowed about meeting strangers from the internet in Dublin, I reckon I won't be allowed travel to Galway to do so.

But you didn't even come to that .

What do you honestly expect, a bunch of paedophiles throwing you into a van and driving off with you? That's only happened once, and they offered me sweets.

Worth it.

Diarmsquid

Yeah, i wasn't at the last one because i forgot about it. (typical moi)
But Mumsy and Daddy are incredibally strict :mad: .

Strokesa

WOOHOO ROAD TRIP!

We're going to Galway baby...

Rozabeez

I'll bring the boom box!!!

Flashling

I'll bring the...hmm. Eh....the...Flashling? Wooh00t, Galway!

Diarmsquid

Galway is actually a really cool place. I'm going there after school. Is there a college there? I might study there, but I'm going to Galway anyway.
