    interesting fact number 1

    Contrary to popular belief, Dublin does not experience high rainfall with the west of Ireland receiving twice that of the capital city. Dublin has the same number of rain days, on average, as London.


    ok... study time

    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    Your're right! You said "people actually still wondering whether 'TBA' is a band or not". They should know it IS a band - what fools! :D

    Well, we have to leave the car back to the airport by 6pm. So if you'll be coming through about 5 I suppose we could aim to be there for 5, meet you and rita and we'll all get a taxi back to mine :o

    See we'll be travelling back from somewhere but I reckon we will make it. Text me before you get on the flight stoney, even if we're back a bit early we could go to the airport early and have a pint with Rita in the airport bar while waiting for you. Can't imagine we WILL be back early though :o

    I thought stoney was arriving 4ish. What time ARE you landing Stoney?

    EDIT: Oops... should this be on the Schedules thread?

    Oh maybe it was 4ish, I had 4.50 in my head for some reason... BUT there are always huge queues to get through passport control at Dublin airport and they're starting to build another terminal so the queues are supposed to be longer than usual... and with the whole terror bullshit added on... I'd add a half an hour from when the plane lands to when you get out (withOUT having to collect luggage :o )
