Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: JudeL Date: 27 Aug 04 - 03:58 AM So Kate: if they have given Dumigan's a face lift does this mean they have removed the tapless bath from the ladies loo? |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: JudeL Date: 27 Aug 04 - 04:10 AM It's been established that people want the pancake workshop again .... so who's still likely to be about to join in the "that's not going to fit in the oven" Sunday Roast Extravaganza ? |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: MudGuard Date: 27 Aug 04 - 04:17 AM Jude, as one of my major hobbies is eating, I think I will join! |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: mooman Date: 27 Aug 04 - 04:50 AM Ah...but will your food ever arrive Andy? Richard |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: Fibula Mattock Date: 27 Aug 04 - 05:03 AM Hiya Jude - no, I think the bath is still there, but it's now clean! The nice thing about cooking (and music) events next time is that there won't be a mass exodus off on the rocky road to Dublin to see Planxty. Full turn out at all times! |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: MudGuard Date: 27 Aug 04 - 05:20 AM Richard, at Loughstock II I made sure I get food by helping to prepare it ;-) I guess I will do the same next time ... |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: JudeL Date: 27 Aug 04 - 05:58 AM ah but will Raven ever find his pint? |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: John MacKenzie Date: 27 Aug 04 - 06:08 AM It's still sitting on the bar getting cold I hear. Yes yes, I'm all in favour of a joint [wink wink] Giok |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: MudGuard Date: 27 Aug 04 - 06:13 AM But Jude, his pint stands exactly where he put it down ;-) |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: My guru always said Date: 27 Aug 04 - 06:25 AM Sounds like we'll need 2 or 3 pancake pans on the go all through Saturday then!!! Jude: Happy to assist again - that makes 3 in the kitchen - room for one more to spread the load???? |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: Leadfingers Date: 27 Aug 04 - 07:16 AM It would be really good if we could get a few Transponders over this time - Shame easy Jet doesent seem to do transatlantic flights . At the moment its less than £15 return from Stanstead ! |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: Skipjack K8 Date: 27 Aug 04 - 07:42 AM Hilary, as well you know, I am the doyen of Loughstock chefs, so I can direct operations, which will be all the help you need. So that's sorted. |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: GUEST Date: 27 Aug 04 - 07:58 AM HAlló all , it is gonna cost me about 308 evr. to come both ways, so i´ll guess I am coming. all the best skarpi Iceland |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: manitas_at_work Date: 27 Aug 04 - 08:06 AM from descriptions I've heard this event should be call "Loughstock and draining two barrels" |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: MudGuard Date: 27 Aug 04 - 08:07 AM Back at work already, Paul? You forgot the last two words: "per hour" ;-) |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: JudeL Date: 27 Aug 04 - 08:19 AM If it's fib's birthday does this mean we need to bake another cake? |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: MudGuard Date: 27 Aug 04 - 08:23 AM No, not in 2005 but in 2006. And then it will be her duty to bake LOTS of cakes ;-) |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: manitas_at_work Date: 27 Aug 04 - 08:28 AM I've had two days of laying in a bed. I need some mental stimulation so I'm back at the office. |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: mooman Date: 27 Aug 04 - 08:29 AM Excellent news that you're coming Skarpi! We'll all look forward to meeting you and playing music with you. Peace moo |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: Eric the Viking Date: 27 Aug 04 - 09:12 AM Of course it's Phibs birthday! It's just that she'll only be a sweet young wench of 29 and 30 the year after. But it's not Skipjacks until 1st of March and him the xxxxxpert at marzipan and sheep brain sandwiches.When he say's he can cook, he means; Eric, Kate, Letty, get on with breakfast! |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: mooman Date: 27 Aug 04 - 10:32 AM As a witness to the event I will second what The Viking said! moo |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: MudGuard Date: 27 Aug 04 - 10:34 AM What do you second? That Eric, Kate and Letty should get on with breakfast? Then I third it ;-) |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: Eric the Viking Date: 27 Aug 04 - 10:53 AM And you ate it! (And survived) |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: Eric the Viking Date: 27 Aug 04 - 07:04 PM Is the hostel still going? Is it bed bug free? Have they fixed the roof on the conservatory? |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: Fibula Mattock Date: 28 Aug 04 - 05:17 AM Just to let you all know that I should have a webpage up by Monday detailing all the details. I just have a lot of work to do before then... |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: White tiger Date: 31 Aug 04 - 10:24 AM Hi all I think that me and my dad will definately be going so we'll probably see you all there. White tiger |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: Fibula Mattock Date: 31 Aug 04 - 11:17 AM Hi Sorcha! Excellent news. My Loughstock web page isn't up just yet - I'm busier than I thought - but I'll post a link when it's ready. |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: mooman Date: 31 Aug 04 - 02:20 PM We're all booked on RyanAir now...please don't cancel it Kate! Looking forward to meeting friends old and new again. Peace moo |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: Liz the Squeak Date: 01 Sep 04 - 02:28 AM Whoo hoo!! Manitas says he wants to come too!! Count us both in and we will persuade the Limpit she wants to stay with nanny and grandad or some other poor unsuspecting mug! LTS |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: John MacKenzie Date: 01 Sep 04 - 02:47 AM About time he came to. ;~) |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: Liz the Squeak Date: 01 Sep 04 - 06:25 AM It's the three days of lying in bed that did it.... he's bored witless and says if he's going to be lying down for three days, he might as well do it in a pub in Ireland! By the way, as a novice at this, what does one do for accommodation there? LTS |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: Catherine Jayne Date: 01 Sep 04 - 07:12 AM There is a hostel....fibs will probably post details later! |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: GUEST,Big Mick on a neighbor's computer Date: 01 Sep 04 - 07:40 PM I will be checking on airfares tomorrow. Aer Lingus should be starting their winter specials any day and I am going to book it if it is available. Fingers crossed to make it and meet Skarpi all in one trip. All the best, Mick |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: GUEST,Laura Plummer Date: 01 Sep 04 - 08:06 PM If any of you ever venture across the fjord to St Patrick's country check out Paddy's Barn, Saul (near Downpatrick) on alternate Tuesday nights singer's session meets @9.30 then and plenty of greengrass and bluegrass songs featured in Mudcat are sung by a good wee fire with tea & sandwiches @ midnight. regards Laura |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: Fibula Mattock Date: 02 Sep 04 - 11:48 AM INFORMATION!There is now a website for all relevant information. Find it at: http://www.loughstock.co.uk |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: mooman Date: 03 Sep 04 - 04:31 AM Excellent website Kate! Knickerelastic! I shall now have to do one for the EuroGathering! Peace moo |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: Leadfingers Date: 03 Sep 04 - 05:47 AM I am booked on easy Jet and have e-mailed the hostel for a room , so it looks as though I wil be there too . Looking forward to it . |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: Fibula Mattock Date: 03 Sep 04 - 06:00 AM Hurray! it's getting underway. Richard - grab that eurogathering.org domain name, quickly!! ;) |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: mooman Date: 03 Sep 04 - 06:57 AM Kate...it's possible I already have something similar! Anyway, what's with this "Malarky"? That was my mother's name! (Well... Mullarkey actually!) (;>) Richard |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: Fibula Mattock Date: 03 Sep 04 - 07:06 AM ain't a malarky a bit like a palaver? |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: Eric the Viking Date: 04 Sep 04 - 06:48 PM I thought you woz bright Kate, a palaver is a jumper wot goes over yer head! |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: MudGuard Date: 04 Sep 04 - 07:40 PM That means that a palaver is a helmet? |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: Amos Date: 04 Sep 04 - 07:47 PM Palaver is a talk, derived from Spanish palabres. Malarkey -- at least over here -- means nonsense, an intersecting set, I am sure. A |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: Liz the Squeak Date: 05 Sep 04 - 03:56 AM I went to school with a boy called Mullarkey. His dad was a teacher. I believe it has Irish roots. And so everything returns - not even 7 degrees of separation in this one! Manitas has agreed!!! All we need now are cat and Limpit sitters. LTS |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: MudGuard Date: 05 Sep 04 - 04:43 AM It might be easier to find cat sitters ;-) Liz, see also PM that I am going to write in a moment ... |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: MudGuard Date: 05 Sep 04 - 05:51 AM Flights are booked, hotel in London is booked! Portaferry, here I come again! |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: MudGuard Date: 05 Sep 04 - 12:16 PM Me again. Kate who is Fibs, on your Loughstock webpage, under Accommodation, you give info@barholmportaferry.co.uk as the email address of Barholm hostel. On the web page of the hostel, barholm.portaferry@virgin.net is given. Do you know which one is correct? |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: Paco Rabanne Date: 06 Sep 04 - 03:44 AM 98. |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: MudGuard Date: 07 Sep 04 - 05:45 AM Just got an answer from Barholm: I am in a bit of a dilemma - you will remember that I am in the throes of acquiring funding to refurbish the house, I need £200,000 and I have successfully acquired £180,000, but the deadline is that the work commences before the end of the year. The work is going out to tender as I write this, but by the time the tenders come back and the grantors agree it, it will probably mean a November start, and it is estimated that it will take 12 weeks to complete (I am closing the house down during this period). I cannot guarantee that it will be re-opened by the time that you all wish to come over. On the other hand if the tenders do not come in under budget the work will not get done, and I would be able to put you up in February. Now you see my dilemma. Do you wish to wait and see what the tenders bring in, of is there any chance you can change the dates until March. That way you could probably be my first guests in a brand new refurbished house. Let know your thoughts. |
Subject: RE: Ireland Mudcat meet: Loughstock III From: MudGuard Date: 07 Sep 04 - 05:56 AM Did I mention that some of us have already booked flights? |
