Belfast meet

[wwfcpogue]

Im hoping that the hat has the polish channel that shows the celtic matches

yeah, hopefully they repeat the Eurocup final from 1970

sorry about that, just couldn't resist it, for by birth,
can't help being supporter of Feyenoord Rotterdam

ive followed feyenoord since john de wolf became a wolves player

So what happened to everyone?

Just wondered as there was only me, Niall, Mick Molloy and Paddy Goes Dutch at the meet.

Myself and Fr. McGreer must of got there too late - 7.30?

Must have just missed us, that is about the time we left.

Did you see Niall?

not the magnitude is grand,
but the grandness is magnificent

(or words to that effect, I try to translate a Dutch saying, is their sth similar in English?)

Thnaks for the advice mate, i reckon i'll walk it, you see much more on foot and you can stop and start when you like - i'll hopefully see you there maybe at the hatfield

Well the latter didn't materialize, hopefully you made and 'enjoyed' your walk though.
I had another look around and discovered two things. For one: there's more fence there than I noticed first time around. Secondly, many more roads were blocked now than in early November. How come??
Was there more tension recently? Is this general practice in weekends? Does that have sth. to do with it almost being Christmas? Who can help me out?

Sorry to not have met,
undoubtedly there'll be more opportunities

[PADDYgoesDUTCH]

I'll probably be propping up the bar

sounds like we absolutely cannot fail to meet (-:

glad we met, though we didn't get to talk too much,
where the f... were you during the gig?

cu mate, take care

[Mick Molloy]

where the f... were you during the gig?

Probably third pole from the left

[rumsodomyandthelash]

Sorry folks i never made the meet, ended up in the kings head across the road from the venue and well you know what its like i kind of got settled in - what a complete Shit hole of a venue the Kings Hall is though, totally unable to cope with a crowd of that size, i would plead with the band to look at some of these big venues and at least play venues that you can use the toilet in !
That said the band were fantastic, i thought Shane was in excellent form, as for the crowd, well i've only done the 2 gigs this year and i have to say the Birmingham crowd was far more up for it, every last oner of us sang along word for word, a large proportion of the Belfast crowd did not seem to know the words to some of the songs, but maybe that was just me
Really sorry i missed everyone

Yes i made the bus tour, they lock the gates at the weekends, the guide filled me in on the bus attack, they are very lucky people to still be walking, produced Rangers shirts and union jacks outside the memorial garden and got surrounded by Taxi's,in the guides words " the first one on the bus was the one that did those 2 squaddies at the funeral ", as i've already said I'm really sorry i missed you and yes hopefully there will be more opportunities
Happy Christmas t o you all

Clever man, when we saw those pubs opposite the venue we were very surpirsed that the meet wasn't there, as the Hatfield was a curious choice, miles away from both the City Centre and the venue

[Niall]

Probably third pole from the left

actually i was at the bar just before the third pole

no, we left shortly after you heather

Actually if you went out into the Smoking area, there were a dozen or so more toilets, portaloos mind, but no queues.

And there was some trouble in our area because someone had weed in someone else's shoes

[PADDYgoesDUTCH]

funny how you were to have a meal inside the Dublin venue:

there was food on one side of the auditorium and drinks on the other,
yet you weren't allowed to bring the one to the other,
so you really had to make up your mind:
"do I want my beer before my pizza, or my pizza before the beer"

solution of course: a beer before and a beer after

but no way could one wash the pizza down with a beer
