Conor in a friendly style pose; Waltzer starts to kick it up,
under supervision from Mad Charlie, no better man; Pete impresses
Dervla and Mairead with his new tattoo; Jody laughs as
Richard tries on his glasses; Waltzer before he bit the head off
Pete, Waltzer after several pints, shots and a savage coctail,
oh and with nice messed up hair.

Leopardstown party review: 70%
Leopardstown - Mediocre food and music didn't
wreck the buzz too much for the annual company summer party. After a mix-up
with Dublin Bus, a slow start and the usual painful wait to be served,
the party kicked off with plenty of getting to know your managers with
helium voices, and other usual party antics.
The turnout was pretty good, most of my friends were
there (thanks for coming!) and there was very little scandal. Brief
anecdotes: The busses went the wrong way completely, everyone laughed
at the "Ring Prices" sign, Siobhan and Rachel kissed when I wasn't
ready for the picture, there was no salad or cheese for the burgers,
the music was better suited to teenage bedrooms and Tesco aisles, everyone
was in great form, and the top of the bus to Rathmines/Ranelagh/Ballsbridge
completely emptied in Rathmines.
Compare this years to last years party which featured in week
030. Those assumptions still hold true, don't you think?
Next week on Waltzer
I was in Killary
the weekend scuba diving, hence the delay and lack of content this
week. Next week I'll have the write-up on the weekend away with the house
scuba class, with some nice photographs to match. Don't forget next weekend
is a bank holiday, so the experience will be up on Tuesday,
as is usual for bank holidays.
On next week's site (probably): Kaner crashes
again (but this time got two races in first), Wage Slave back for
at least three weeks, another good separated at birth, an interesting
Wrecks me Buzz from the master moaner, Moose, and some controversy
too if my evil plans come together. |

This week last year
Last year: Last year was also
my birthday, surprisingly, so there are some pictures of that.
Also an interesting Top 10: Pub Types in Ireland, and in Wrecks
me Buzz, the reasons I won't do the Lotto. And how's this for an
update: I still haven't got around to getting film for the camera they
bought me last year, I still don't do the lotto, (but am slightly less
enthusiastic about being an entrepreneur), and I figured that if your
party isn't handy, no one will come. It's nothing personal, people
are just lazy, especially in Dublin where there is lots of other things
to do.
Last year includes:
4. "Old Fashioned" Pub

Waltzer a year older! By Waltzer.
There's always something, isn't there. Now you know
I'm not a grumpy person AhemTrionaAhem, but nobody likes getting a year
older. Once they hit 23, that is. Now I know most of you will read this
and go "Ah, poor baby" or "Ah, poor wee lamb," (whichever you are most
comfortable with), because you are well over 24. Well "ha ha" I say to
you. (It's especially sad for my dad who's not only left 24 a long time
ago, but also has a 24 year old son, he he he!)
However, having a new age comes with it's advantages.
I invited a rake of people to O'Shea's to help celebrate the passing
of my cool 23rd year. Not that anyone needed an invitation to O'Shea's,
but that's another story. So after a civilised start with about 40 people,
we ended up about six of us fairly merry. Or so I believe, I was too
busy pouring water on myself and jumping on the tables to notice who
was there and whether we were setting off the fire alarms or not.
Well it was a great night and I'd like to thank you
all for coming, I won't list all who came because I'd upset anyone who
wasn't included and was there, and I'm sure I'd also upset people who
weren't there and I claimed they were! Yes, it probably would be a fairly
random list.
But now I am 24, getting on. I better go buy a place
to live and get a nice young one to settle down with! ;-)
Now that wrecks me buzz. |
