    Hey Al, I just remembered, you complained to be at the top of the Irish Gathering list, so in return I demand to be at the top of this list! :D


    then that would put you above me... so no ;)
    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.

    i remember in line in dublin what constituted a pisser for me was behind
    the vans in parking lot....it wasn't noticeable anyway as it was pissing rain also at the time...no queues either

    I remember that. I was bursting for a piss as i was having to down a shit load of beers at the front gate before going in. Why is there never a pisser available when you need one? :confused: :rolleyes:

    yeah i got caught with 3 half bottles of wine on my person seen as my good wife would not help me try to smuggle them in.
    I wasn't handing them over so the extra fluids caught me out in the line.
    ah well...came back into line to photo evidence of my misdemeanor

  • Guys .. seriously what do you think are the chances of me getting decent seated tickets for my 10c tickets. I mean, I dont want to end up sitting right at the back behind a big pillar or something. I'll feckin take me chances on the floor if i have to !!! (ok , maybe not)
    But if you hear of anyone with good seated tickets to swap for my two will you let me know - was kinda lookin forward to the craic but c'est la vie - :)

    The Stansted express to Liverpool Street takes about 30 minutes. A return ticket to come back the next day will cost you about £25. The train runs right from under Stansted airport. Then take the Metropolitan line train from Liverpool street to Wembley Park, which will take about 20 - 30 minutes. Simple.

    This one :confused:

    I was going to stay in a Travel Inn or something, but now I'm just going for whatever is closest. In Dublin, I stayed in a hotel really close to The Point and that was great for walking to and from the show :)
