[Rep of Ireland Hibee]

[U What?]

Great stuff mate - it'll be good to see you. I might not be hosting it this year so I should have more time to chat.

The entry price for members is the same as last year: a bottle of Irish whisky!!

 

[Scoobie]

Took a while to find a STRAIGHT A3 envelope, as I didn't want to use a tube for the card, Conor. Unfortunately BRIDIE left it behind (at work, couldn't find one anywhere else).

BUT...

She also managed to grab an A3 flat box, an Inch high. Would it be acceptable to send as much stuff as I can in one go, or do you REALLY need the Stencil right now? Everything is there, but I can't help thinking the posters, etc could all be sent at the same time.

Sure, let us know what you think, and I'll do it.

You're right - send it all at once, would make sense.

Look forward to it, the quality of the designs for last year's function once was one of things we were most proud of

 

[NI Hibby]

One and all,

The tickets (5 minimum each) are available from George Kelly, 24 Iris Street, Belfast, BT12 7AR. (Cheques payable to George Kelly).

Thanks,

NIH

Ivan? :hmmm :yipee

 

[NI Hibby]

Ivan? :hmmm :yipee

That would be good, but it's more likely to be former players because of the Smeltic game.

But you never know who we'll talk into coming across.

A Belfast accent can be very persuasive

 

[Rep of Ireland Hibee]

Have got Old Man Kevin on board for this now, so thats 3 of us

Will work on the Kilkenny lads at the Hun match (haven't given up on Nabser yet either)

 

[Scoobie]

Updated the signature in relation to the fantastic announcement above! Well done Conor! :worthy

Brilliant stuff - thanks Scoobie.

But getting Eddie to come was a team effort with Hibee Angel and Ned Kelly.

(And we're feeling very pleased with ourselves : )

 

[Dublin_Hibee]

Thats great news about Eddie coming again this year, the 2 remaining members of the famous five - excellent :worthy

 

[Scoobie]

You can put me and Bridie on that list Conor. Finally made able to make arrangements, couldn't get Days Hotel this time - had to go for the Holiday Inn Express off Ormeau Road.

That's great news mate

Look forward to catching up.

The Holiday Inn is a handy spot too.

 

[Scoobie]

The Holiday Inn is a handy spot too.

Ach, it's not too bad. The price was decent and it was quoted for the room, not individually. Wot swung it was that we would've been getting a Joe Baxi anyway, so it wouldn't have mattered if we got the Days Hotel or not.

Funny tho.... Deb goes "what about Stormont, is that far?" Er.... YES!

Actually, we are booked into the University Road one.

 

[NI Hibby]

Actually, we are booked into the University Road one.

The University Road one is home to the Offyerface (AKA Orpheus) nightclub.

The front of the place sometimes turns into a Vietnam re-enactment at closing time, so you both might have to open a can of whoopass when you get out of the taxi!


Sorry - it's not that bad really.

Oh Joy!
Now I am worried.
I did request a quiet room though...shall tell Scoobs to pack his ear plugs!

I did say the Holiday Inn Express OFF the Ormeau Road. I believe University road is OFF the Ormeau Road, and I don't believe that there are any other Holiday Inn Express's that are just OFF the Ormeau Road.




Do you think I main my point clearly enough?

A copy of the poster for the event can now be seen online at www.nihibs.com (it will appear in a pop-up window - don't ask me how!).

Is the Holiday Inn at Ormeau Avenue an 'Express'? I believe I said that we're staying in the "Holiday Inn Express". OFF THE ORMEAU ROAD!!!



You know I'm right!

At least I was able to find the hotel!!

I'm only parked there to save a space for you when you eventually turn up.
