June social on the 18th

Hi gals and guys,

the June club social will be Thursday 18th in The Gingerman from 8.30pm, the same place as last month. Here's some details on it http://www.dublinpubscene.com/thepubs/gingerman.html
It's city centre and right beside Pearse St. DART and not far from LUAS either.

This is a perfect opportunity for new members to come along, suss out the gang, and maybe make arrangements for the Summer Solstice weekend trip (20/21st). With a bit of luck we'll get some waves and sunshine for the longest days of the year. If you miss that you'll kick yourself you weren't there!

Slán,

Conor

Christmas Social & Iceskating Night - Fri 12th Dec

Folks,

the Christmas social will be on Friday 12th Dec. I hope this suits most people. We'll be back in Jack Nealon's of Capel St as everyone liked the place and it suits our numbers.

As with the Hallowe'en, friends/non members are very welcome to join in the craic. Please let me know if you're going to come join in and let me know if you'll be bringing friends so I can know how many's coming. My number is 0862935333.

****************EXTRA UPDATE ******************

I've provisionally booked ice-skating in Smithfield for 8pm on the night. It's only round the corner from Jack Nealon's and should cost €12:60 (discounted group rate). ECSC will subsidise anyone interested in attending so it'll only cost members €5 on the night. It lasts for 50 mins so we should be finished up and in Jack Nealon's by 9:15.
Please let me know who's interested by texting me on 0862935333 as I need to know in advance. Go on, you know you want to!

Looking forward to seeing you all.

Hallowe'en Club Social

The next club social will be on Thursday 30th Oct.

We want everyone, yes everyone, to arrive in fancy dress. If you can manage something along a scary theme, that'd be great, zombie surfer or something like that.

It'll be a great laugh and non-club members are more than welcome (as long as they make some effort to dress up).

Venue: Upstairs in Jack Nealon's bar on Capel Street
(http://www.dublinpubscene.com/thepubs/jacknealon.html)

It's less than 5 minutes from O'Connell bridge, does great cocktails and we've upstairs to ourselves. Kickoff is 8 o'clock as the bar will close at 11:30.

Sláinte,
Conor O'B
