      ok…so it is time we set a few dates…

      I was thinking that some people are coming to Dublin for the Dublin web summit 27/28th Oct…would that Thurs or Friday be a good evening for a shindig/informal pub get together.?? The summit seems to end early enough on the Friday.

      the DWS is in the RDS so maybe we need to move from Capel street back to one of our old haunts near city centre for this one.

      discussions are ongoing re having a more formal event

      Aphra.

      Post your preferences re dates and venues….

      great, cause I know 2 of the open emotion guys will be up in Dub for the web summit and they are on for it.

      Maybe meet in the Lombard…(what was Mahaffys) at the back of Trinity?

      see http://www.thesmithgroup.ie/thelombard/location.html

      Which is better for people, the Thurs or the Friday?

      I guess I better pop along too to laugh along with your Chris De Burgh interpretations!

      Lots of news going about – sure going to be an interesting one!

      hi everyone,

      i’ll be around that weekend too, so i’ll be there. I have a bucketload of printed copies of the Edge Dublin Feature, (as in dozens), so if you want me to bring one for you on the night, please send me a PM so I can have one put aside for you.

      Look forward to seeing everyone, it’s been ages since I could make it to one :)

      looks like a nice crowd will be there.

      I might have to order a couple of platters to feed you all..!

      tables are reserved and I will place signs on those tables that are reserved in case you can’t find us.

      If you have never been before pm me for more details

      Aphra.

      I’ll try to get in too, and suggest to my students that they do so.

      Should make it for this if city is not flooded. :)
      If anyone has demos of what they are working on that they can casually show on a laptop or phone, would love to see.

      Myself and a few of the lads off the gaming course in pulse are planning on dropping in. Should be a laugh.

      It’s very heartwarming walking into these and recognising the first guy you see from working in a previous games job :)

      really enjoyed the night, must do it again!

      I regret I missed it before the date rolled around.

      After hearing all the comments I just regret it even more :(
