mid summer shindig

Do it in July and I’ll be able to make it. :)

Friday 29 June, Friday 6th July, Friday 13th July?

Dave

It’s also my friend’s birthday on the 13th! I’ll probably be camping that weekend so it’s not good for me either. Need to stay in touch with nature now and again. ;)

29th and 6th are both fine.

Results are out June 28th for us so I’m going to go with July 6th on this one.

So which are you bringing, a DS or a PSP? :D

6th then :)

Steph, Claire, suitably busy that weekend? :)

6th sounds good.

6th sounds good to me too, been meaning to go to one of these for ages. Hope there will be a big turn out.

6th is a goer

:D 6th and 7th are killer long days for me … but if i have a dram of energy left in me after i finish work on 6th i’ll drop in :D

The 6th it is then.

Perhaps, if we’re able to, we could start off at the Xbox Gaming Centre and then move on to the pub afterwards. The pub near Trinity that we were at last time was a good enough place. That is if it’s close to the Xbox Centre.

You know you want to, Claire. A pint couldn’t hurt. Take the chance to wind down after a long day!

6th then :)

Why you little….
I oughtta….
:twisted:

To the risk of (mostly) shocking most of ye, I am actually free on 6th July.

I comes with added freedom, to boot (wife & daughter, lucky them, are getting a couple of weeks’ headstart on me at the beach :lol: ).

Would be perfect.

All still up for the 6th, aye?

Is there any other date that suits people? I really want to go because I haven’t been to one in months, but the 6th doesn’t suit me because I have another engagment :cry:

Next friday or nothing at this stage I think…is the plan to start in the xbox center and maybe head down to somewhere like dakota then?

Dave

Has anyone been in touch with Jamie?

If not, we should sort out a quick plan b. Perhaps a good pub near the centre of town.

LOL! this is so bad it’s laughable. I’m cursed, I’m telling you…

Had an email from company secretary Friday 3pm: company summer (yeah, right) barbecue (Yeah… right!) this Friday 6th, so after all that… gotta show, so that’s me out :cry:

Balance is restored to the universe? Will it go on past the time all us DG heads will have gone home to bed?

Doubt it – I’d need a mobile no. from one of you guys by pm, to hook up later.

hey guys, aphra was talking to me.

How about 7pm – 9pm in the centre, it’ll be a tenner a head and i can organise a reserved area in capitol or ba mizu for you for after.

let me know

cheers

7 sounds about right.

Sounds like a plan! ;)

Thanks aphra and yes, mobile by pm, please.

Given how good a summer we’re having this year, the company might reschedule, or it might be a very short affair anyhow.

I just realised today that I haven’t organised anything for the trip yet. I’ll have to give this one a miss but have a great time guys!

Hey folks prob wont make it to Xbox centre (Might catch tail end of it) is Dakota the pub of choice?
I plan on bringing my girlfriend to help make up the girl numbers. She is interested in the educational aspect of games.

Aye, lets do Dakota – suits and we need a decision :)

Ill be on mobile (086 897 4872) if anyone gets lost.

Theres an educational aspect? :)

Enjoy the shindig lads. Manage myself to get a few days off in the end during crunch, so gonna head to the lake district to recharge before back to the fire that is finishing SRR next week.

Have a good one, I can’t make it unfortunately, next one I will!

Sounds like your working way too hard Peter…crunch shouldn’t be that hard these days…

It’s a good thing I wasn’t able to go. Apparently the motorway was backed up for hours because of Oxegen.

Any news from the shindig?

Yeah, Ian!

Shindig was well worth attending and I am already looking forward to the next one. Was great to finally put faces to the names.

I now have to find out how much of it can be made public…Ian?[/quote:2b00b8d043] Way to build up the intrigue Aphra :wink: . The naked truth will come out.

Jebus the pressure… ye lot are worse than the paparazzi.

Anyway… I can end the "intrigue" and reveal the naked truth ;)

After two truly great years, I’ve moved on from Nephin Games and the world of mobile and have just started with Rebellion in Derby!

See!!! the news wasn’t that big ;)

Rebellion. Nice one, so Damo’s got a drinking buddy :)

We’ll be whipping him into shape ;)

Nice one Ian :)

Don’t worry ye’ll not get rid of me that easy Aphra! Thanks all for the good wishes ;)

BTW I’d like to assure you that I have NO idea what omen is talking about… ;)

Cheers,
Ian

Congrats, Ian. If you and Damo can’t come to the shindig, we may have to bring the shindig to you. ;)

It’s a shame I couldn’t make it down. Would be nice to meet you sometime, David. Make sure you’re at the next one! :)

Best of luck Ian, hope yer send-off was a right larf, sorry I couldn’t make it down.

Congrats again Ian. Thanks for all your help.

Make sure you’re at the next one![/quote:fe7704e1cc]
Will do Ronny.

Good luck in Rebellion Ian!!!

It’s a shame to see experienced developers leave, but given the current state of game dev in Ireland, it’s unfortunately understandable also.

Mal

Congratulations Ian,

sorry to see you go, but best of luck in England!

Ian,

I hate you, I hope you have a miserable time over there.

Hugs and kisses

Paul

P.S. oh and a begrudging congratulations too :)

Yeah Paul, now you have no one to blame for breaking the 360 disks!

Careful now Pete, you might start to receive some bills in the post…

Get enough of those already! Did ye manage to get a new CoD2 disk yet, or have you switched to a new game?
