He.
I normally go into the Crown. Then if I get pi$$ed enough to not know any better Robinsons next door when it closes.

Would not recommend it for Shagger as it's owned by the national trust and the staff are all unionised and in effect civil servants. :shock: :wink: :)

This time I will be visiting the Taphouse near Queens. It's about a mile and a half from Ravenhill and there are a bus or 2 full of Ulster fans converging on it. They show all the Rugby games there and it is said to be good crack.

Sadly (actually not so sadly at all) my dancing days are over and I was never big on nightclubs in the first place, so I can't help you there.

Fine. Ravenhill is in a "nice" area. You can park a few streets away. They put cones out near the stadium so you can't park.

We parked outside someone's garage door last time, (2 years ago) just as they were coming out of their house. I thought they were going to complain, but they smiled and asked us who we thought would win etc.

You did what?? Some people! I would have 'got 2 other cars and parked them up against yours so you had to knock on my door to get out. :D :D

Sweet... yeah driving up as well. Last season I just parked in the city centre in a car park and got a taxi over.... Looked like you could park a few streets away alright. Will try it this time...
