October is a quiet month. There are a lot of festivals throughout the summer; but October is quiet as Halloween is coming up.
Right at the start of the month the "Tough Mudder" adventure race is taking place, just outside Dublin in Kildare.
The National U-22 boxing championships will be on in the National Stadium in the middle of the month.
Dublin is a hive of activity and every weekend will bring something new.
As regards nightlife; Templebar is the centre of activity. And it is good. Its thronged with tourists, locals and parties. But its crazy expensive man. Way Way overpriced for what it is.
Lillies Bordello is one of the "it" places. I went there and harted it. Copper face Jacks is a must visit. It just typifies Irish people... quite humorous.
There are tons of nightclubs dotted around the city, hundreds of bars too.
The autumn internationals will be on for the national rugby squad. These scheduled 3/4 games are great to watch live or in a pub... Theyre fun either way.
You staying for long and planning on travelling much?
Very cool man.Quote:

We have a B&B booked right by O'Connell street so I'm looking forward to just walking around and touring.
We're from Newfoundland, Canada just across the pond, which is pretty much all Irish. Hopefully next summer I'd like to get back and do a proper tour across Ireland to get a real feel for it. But for now, it's just a taste.
[QUOTE=Beanflicker;1254206]Ah, cool man; sounds like a cool trip.Quote:

But I see smith67 has been around a lot longer than that. Its worth checking on things like that by going to their post history cause it saves you alot of work later on having to delete a day of them spamming the boards.If someone is fresh and they post a few of them in a row we wipe them out before hand.;)Quote:

How was the trip?
Great trip, weather cooperated throughout, even in Dublin. Never had to wear my jacket once.

Snapped some pics with the iPhone, nothing great but I enjoyed Berlin the most I must say.
Nazi uniforms?
Yeah at the Berlin museum, I got to see Hitler's desk, I enjoyed it.

I bet you enjoyed Berlin you dirty bugger :D
Unforuntately no brothels close by where I was staying, I even had the GF's permission as long as I get an STD/AIDs test afterwards.
Its legal there. Streetsw filled with hookers after 10 o clock. Comical. When I was there 2 girls approached us and we thought they were trying to get us into a strip club and we asked how much. Something like 30 euro and asked what do you get with that (expecting free drink with entry) to which they reply handjob blowjob maybe more. Needless to say our jaws dropped :DQuote:

I was reading about one (I think it's one of the bigger ones), guys spend all day there, 60 EU to get in and lounge about (they have a pool, jacuzzi, ect) and 20 EU for the fun stuff.
