    rugby means i will be missing the weekend with everyone in munich, otherwise i would be there. instead i will be in montpellier!

    there is an australian/irish bar (well 2 bars, in the same building but seperate bars) in munich, aussie one called Ned Kellys. It is near the big church behind the marienplatz. i watched a rugby game there in june last year, they both have sky :)

    yeah, i'm leaving here! will be home eventually but probably not for to long, my feet wil be itchy very very quickly!

    small amount of interest, so maybe a smaller pub might be better, and maybe cheaper than waxys on a weekend, less crowded as well.

    i think i will throw it out there on facebook as well...

    weekend after payday i will have money as well!

    not too sure, only was there the once.

    some wetherspoon maybe? there's one on charing cross rd (well, used to be Moon Under Water, now a lloyd's bar called the Montague Pike, same prices though), but they start kicking you out at 10.30 :(
    don't know any wetherspoons in central london with extended opening hours.. checking,
    The Penderel’s Oak or Shakespeares Head , both in Holborn are open until 1am

    The Railway in Putney also is :p..then we can go and get more drinks at my place ;)
  • What about that place we went to for Byrnzie's booze-up? I forgot the name, but they're open till midnight and drinks are cheap...?
