Guys,

Almost all on the original list have confirmed. Those who haven't confirmed are Dr.Gonzo+2, Phil06+dad, Teensy, Fitz and MDesmond. If anyone knows these guys, could they give them a gentle nudge. Ta.

There are others who want to make the bus but couldn't cos its full, so if you can't make it and you're on the list, shout now.

The bus company are saying they have a problem with drinking on the bus - new safety legislation etc. Harp is available at Kielys of course, couple of pints in the Great Northern Brewery and of course the Harp tent at Ravers..... :D

You won't go home thirsty.

Couple of points:
As I said, please don't show up pissed at the brewery, its mine and Fungal Boys place of work...What you do when you leave is entirely up to you... :twisted:

Also be mindful of the others on the bus, bear in mind that Grumpy needs to take his nap in the afternoon.

Final point, the Ravenhill 2 were left behind a couple of years ago when they couldn't be found when the bus was supposed to leave. If you don't make departure time from Ravers, please check with them as to alternate travel options.....cos we want to make Kiely's for last orders and we're leaving on time..... :wink:

Can't fockin wait - bring on the Gringos and bring on the Harp! :D

Another reminder, your tickets are your own responsibility. Harp only doing the bus and the beer!

PS we will pass a hat for a voluntary contribution so that we can try and fund an operation to the Turnip patch. Suggest 5 or 10 quid.....If you're strapped don't worry at all, no pressure.
You have to work in Dundalk? My sympathies. Explains a lot tho. :P
No Tara. We just go there occasionally to sample the Harp. Cos thats our job. We get paid to do it. :D
Well thats two reasons to contact the recruiters then...

JRC - 1 of the buses has a DVD player. The other one doesn't.

We won't tell you which one is which :lol:, you'll just have to draw lots.

Yay, I want to be on that bus!

OK, let's get some practice in:

"Everywhere we go, everywhere we go
People always ask us, people always ask us
Who we are, who we are
Where do we come from, where do we come from
And we always tell them, and we always tell them
We're from Leinster, we're from Leinster
Mighty, mighty Leinster, mighty, mighty Leinster............"

Hello? Why am I the only one singing?

Crazy Dave will be leading the Rebel songs all the way down the Malone Road.... :lol:

Needless to say, Fungal Boy and Sexy Rexy will be giving the dancing lessons.

Ceist, do they take real money in Ravers, or do I have to head down to the bank and get the stuff with George Best or Lizzie in London on it?
