permission from his wife

it all makes sense now

Road testing Sheilas on Friday 18th.
What interest is there in hosteling for the Cask Ale Festival?
Group booking? reserve a room/beds? Rooms sleep 4/6/8.
Do we need a list for Fri and Sat?

My accommodation situation will have changed by then, so I'm not putting myself down just yet, but can do the legwork.

[Ciderhead]

So who has a weekend pass
Friday

Saturday
1) Ciderhead
2) Dempsey
3) Tube

Anyone else, there is one spot still in Ciderheads car from Dublin return if anybody wants a lift down and back.

We are slumming it in the travel lodge

Not sure if people saw the post on Beoir in relation to vouchers for Beoir members on the Friday, but I've asked Shane and something similar will be open to NHC members. As we don't have membership cards yet, I suggest that anyone wearing a NHC hoody or tshirt should be eligible.

My wife is whisking me away for a romantic weekend that weekend! Especially for Valentines! Isn't she great... "where shall we go Padraic..."  Still firming up plans but most likely I'll be queueing at the door waiting for them to open on Friday!

Cool beans Taf.
So if I'm a card carrying Beoir member wearing a NHC shirt?...

Ha ha, yes I thought of that as well, as many of us would be in that position, but probably wise not to push it.

[johnrm]

I have a Tee for both.
Get a pint, disappear for 30 secs, pull one Tee over the other, then return and ask for a pint.
'What? No I've not had a beer in ages. That must have been my Evil twin brother.'

Ye cheeky pups

Guys, Gobus.ie travel to cork now (not sure if ye are aware) but it's non stop from busáras to the bus station in cork, takes 2 hours and 45 mins for €20 return.

Just a cheaper alternative than the train in the same amount of time = MORE BEER MONEY 

You have to buy your ticket online though.

Handy to know!! Cheers.
