Excellent! Mind you my Welsh isn't half bad either

Hello true blues. I'm going to Connacht too but also driving and staying over. Any idea of gathering place after? or even before if I make it there on time?

Folks, I just discovered that the Galway Oyster Festival is on this weekend. So what you might ask - well the place is going to be packed, hotels are booked out and the paparazzi will be in town. What's a rugby gal to do.

Galway is a very small town - okay they call it a city but it's not a real city, bit like Kilkenny. Basically the place is too small to accomodate all the people in it on any given weekend - hence you gotta go to the nightclubs before 12 to get in - especially Halo. It's like that pretty much most weekends.

Just looking at times and sh1t, would I be dreaming to think that if I left Rathmines at 3pm, I'd make it to the sportsground for kick off?

Am seriously thinking of focking off an hour early tomorrow evening, but 3pm is the earliest I could leave without taking a half day, which I can't do!

Won't bother if traffic will be shite.

I'd say if you left at three on the dot, you'd probably have a reasonable chance. Depends if you can get ahead of the general traffic leaving Dublin early and also the Moate situation.

and remember if you're stopped to invoke the Alex Fergusson defence to speeding charges

yep you'd definitely make it - It's only ever taken me longer than three and half hours a couple of times and that's usually bank holiday weekends.

Mullet have we got a banner sorted?

sexy_rexy · Post by **sexy_rexy** » September 28th, 2006, 4:32 pm

Right, that's that then, I'm going down, and after a quick phone call looks like I may be spending the night too.

For those that need it:

I'm on drum duty but what would stick on this banner
