Ok so after have the chance to get up to Uberstaff and meet all the loverly Irish folk that went, ive decided that they are all so nice that they should be visited very soon.



If not only to steal more staff trix wink



So far they have kindly offerd places to stay, but are not sure on numbers but we are all grown ups and ive started this here so we can be a little organised.



Im thinking the weekend of the 17th June we fly over and come back on the Monday , then we can have much harcore spinnage on sat and sunday along with much tea drinking and doobie making smile



Call it a tribute to Uberstaff cool



So what i would like to know is who in ireland can make it to Dublin that weekend, and who in the Uk wants to come with me biggrin



So far the list of the UK attacking team is:



Frodo

2bags

Strugz

Dunc (in spirit)

Birgit

MCP

Skully

Vixen

Nate



So any other takers? flying from gatwick return will be max £40 if we book in next few weeks! smile the earlier we can decide the cheaper it will be!



Let the dissciussion begin weavesmiley

Pffffft you people spank

I go to work sit on my [censored] for 8 hours and then come home again and look...... you all posted a whole bunch of confusing stuff........ pffffft!

Matty I'm probably going to get thursday afternoon off due to the fact that everyone but everyone in our place has a cold except me and they may have to shut it down on grounds of health and safety. Being disabled workers that have to have a certain number of sane well balanced people (the factory workers) to watch over the less sane (the management).... trust me thats the right way around...... so I might get thursday off all together..... yippppppeeeeeeeee! On the down side I maybe harbouring evil germs....... I could be in charge of germ warfare on this invasion...... *gets ready to pucker up and snog a lot of people* ..... Oh and I have a 5'5" tube that will fit a few staffs in if you want me to bring it. Maybe we could do like you said and club together for the £17 staff travel costs..........

I'm not allergic to cats but I've given up eating them because the fur balls make you cough. I'm not so keen on nits, bit small and not very tasty...... I like nuts... especially roast chestnuts..... wrong season though i guess......

I demand a smoosh off everyone at least 15 times in the weekend. Anyone refusing to smoosh me will get bitten!

oh [censored] remind me to get euros..... silly Irish people don't have real money *runs away to hide before betting blatted*

Feed me Chocolate!!! Feed me NOW!

ha ha! you don't stand a chance! the scots & the welsh on your side have already asserted their celtic heritage, even your own man, 'commander in chief' strugz requested honorary irishness for the weekend.

you know what, seeing as we're such a lovable bunch and hold no grudges whatsoever from the last time you lot invaded our country wink, i grant you all honorary irishishness (that's how it's pronounced after 7 pints of guinness) for the entire weekend!!!

either that or face defeat...

mwaahaahaahahaha!!!!

Actually I'm so happy that I don't mind being put on the list as a Brit (and even worse in blue) wink

that's the spirit strugz!! clap

ok folks, listen up, listen up!!!

the plan is....

the thursday evening arrivals are staying chez moi biggrin

the sleeping arrangements may alter slightly for friday evening. this mean that 1 or 2 peeps who'll be with me on thurs may have to sleep elsewhere on friday, but that will mean that everyone will be slept more comfortably, as there's lot's of floorage available at mine, but lots more beddage available at other locations from friday onwards.

see? we know how to look after our guests!

jon, firepoise will be picking you up at the airport enroute to mine, we'll all head back in to town later to meet the 8-9pm arrivals.

garthy & hels, would you mind very much getting the bus from the airport in to dublin city centre? there are buses every couple of minutes. you can get the airport express coach which costs €5 one-way, or you can take a normal dublin suburban bus for €1.75. the normal buses are the 16A, 41, 41B, 41C and 746. ask the driver to let you off at o'connell street. we'll meet you at the spire - that's a large silver pointy needley type object d'art in the middle of the street - you can't miss it, it's 120m high. text me when you arrive at the airport, or when you're on the bus and we'll be waiting at the spire to meet you.

ros, i'll meet you from the bus, it's only around the corner from where we're meeting garthy & hels

i'm pm'ing you all my addy just in case of unforseen mishaps smile

arrangements for friday's arrivals to follow biggrin
