Unfortunately the small, low key Hallowe'en Reunion that was in the pipeline will not be happening. Keep an eye on this topic for word of the next one. Apologies to one and all!

That's a shame. Maybe we can have a get together ourselves. Anyone interested in choosing a date and venue? Smiths, Neptune, Sunny Southeast anyone?

A pity but we will be all biting at the bit in anticipation for the next one as its been a while and the rarer they are the more special they will become plus I am sure that will be other nights out organised before then. Apparently theres a new social secretary on the site...... ------------- Good Grief, Charlie Brown |

I have to do a U turn on the 17th I'm afraid...its my birthday on the Monday (20th) and Siobhan has invited some of her family over to join us for a few beers on the 17th...it was supposed to be the 18th (which I would have preferred) but that doesnt suit half of the 'invitees' so its been switched to the Friday. Just my luck....two great events on the same night...I was really looking forward to the gig in Swords as well... Edit: Almost tempted to tell them all to just join us in Swords but theres nieces etc., involved (not to mention my 6 year old daughter, who is really looking forward to Dad's birthday) so its not really a runner. ------------- TPFKAB (The Poster Formerly Known As Brunswick). |

I was in Penny's at lunch time and they have the army hats the Bass player with the Pat McManus band wears for €3. If we all got one it would be a real laugh .

The Slaughtered Lamb is right on the main street June, on the right as you come into the town from Skerries/Rush etc., (about halfway up the main street). If the time is the same as last time, the gig doesnt start till around 10pm (I think)... ------------- TPFKAB (The Poster Formerly Known As Brunswick). |

Folks, I'll be out of the country on 17th. Am sorry to miss the gig. But I know there'll be enough Grovers there to rock the house.
