Dublin Drinkies

Nah it was said on Twitter that one of us will be coming out of the closet at Drinkies.

It'll be fun to speculate on a lie like this so it's FF material as things stand

If someone's coming out at Dublin drinkies then it has to be Peter. That walk.....
 
No chance of getting the Monday off for me so I'll have to do a Houdini at some point in the evening. Defo up for a few jars all the same.
 
Morning fellas - All confirmed I'm definitely coming. Just booking my flights now. Looks like an early start for me. I'll be getting in around 8am. I've never been to Dublin before so some advice would be much appreciated.

What's the best way to get from the airport into the centre of town - Bearing in mind it will be a Sunday? Actually thinking about it is it the centre of town where drinkies will commence? I'm going to stay in a hotel in the centre anyway I think as I'm planning on exploring Dublin proper on Monday before taking a late flight home. Anyway fellas any tips on what I can do in a day would be great so I can get planning a little.

Cheers
 
You can get a bus in for about €7 I think. Aidan get's it the odd time. Taxi is about 20 quid id say. Maybe one of the locals will pick you up???? 😉

You could go to the Guinness Storehouse Monday. I'm sure the Dubs will give you a list of things to do.
 
Just checked that Guinness Storehouse thing - That looks a must do thing! Cheers mate 🙂

The Guinness Storehouse is good. At the end of the tour you end up in a bar with a free voucher for a pint of Guinness. Make sure you get friendly with plenty of non-drinkers on the tour so at the end they give you their voucher. I ended up completely shitfaced on free vouchers. Happy days.
 
The tour of Glasnevin cemetery is meant to be good and is a little different from the usual touristy things.
The Book of Kells in Trinity college is another popular destination and the long room library which is included in the tour is worth a look.
 
I wouldn't make too many plans, you won't be able to get out of bed on Monday.


(Because of the hangover, we'll have untied you by then)
 
I'm not sure yet, I've put in my holiday request but not been approved so far.

I've got 4 new starters in work this week so if I can get them trained up sufficiently to have a day off then I might be ok...

Bump
So can we not temp anyone else along to this?
We have Red Astair travelling from Landan and Piedro from Liverpool (hopefully)
Surely a few more of the lads a bit closer to home can make it too?
 
Yeah I was going to say actually. I'm in the middle of booking an apartment in the centre of town. There will be loads of room if anyone needs a place to crash. I haven't got it confirmed yet but drop us a PM in the next few days and I will see what I can sort out.
 
I'm tempted but the 31st is my last day at work (probably), so they'll expect me to turn up

It'll be finished by nine.
You will have no problem making it into work the following day. 😗
 
I'm more than likely a no, sorry guys, but don't quite rule me out yet totally. I'm going back the states with work and it's looking like it's gonna be week of 31st march, I'm trying for 7th April instead...
 
What time do you get in at Red Astaire? Your best bet is probably a taxi if you're booking a place to stay, buses obviously stop at designated points. I've been to the Guinness Storehouse. Thought it was only ok. Bar at the top is preety cool. What time do you fly back on monday? If the time suits i might be able to give you a lift bac. k to the airport
 
Another bump,
So any late interest?
Pete, any luck on getting over?
Refugee, are you coming mate? The party could do with more muppets😉
