    I moved this to a thread of it's own, because I really don't think the Feedback thread is the place for organising beers.

    What was Windsock talking about Glasnevin Cemetary? Is it the tour she was on about?

    If we do do that, we should contact the tour guide and tell him there's a group of us coming down from t'internet, he might do us a special or an extended tour or something.

    He's a really nice fella, I did the tour last year (Easter last year afaik, I think there were free tours on)

    Dates i suppose...the date with the most votes gets it.

    Tbh,i'd prefer city centre pubs to somewhere like the gravediggers..its a bus journey from town and not everybody's cup of tea,also tends to be quite jammed at the weekends.

    The FLowing Tide was handy, and wasn't too packed.

    I'd be up for town more than Glasnevin, though anywhere Norf of the river is fine for me.

    I say Hop House followed by Fibbers :)

    Yep. A place with good pints is essential.

    The Guinness was woeful in the Flowing Tide.... although I found over that whole week Guinness anywhere on Abbey street was a bit dodgey tasting.

    This is why I drink pint bottles, always the same good quality drink no matter where you buy it. :)

    The Guinness was always good in the Batchelor and it was an old man's pub, just to be my Grandda's pub, grand place for a few quiet pints and a bit of craic.

    If its in The Lower Deck I won't be interested, but don't let that be a deciding factor please.

    I think I have to make a new thread for a poll to work properly, so I'll make that thread. The poll will be public and multiple choice, so we can let people have a choice.

    7 choices.

    Fri 4th
    Sat 5th
    Fri 11th
    Sat 12th
    Fri 18th
    Sat 19th
    Don't Mind
