Thanks again folks for the great night.
Really had a ball, and that was the most exercise I've had in years! (I'm usually dancefloorphobic!).

Get well soon Roma, sorry to hear that your quest to eradicate the balloons ended with injury. It did look like you had a bad landing.
Anyway, maybe you could have the details of the list put on the cast? ?

That's been anothe rreally fast weekend...can't wait for the next one!

Well guys... I am back in the land of the living... had such a great time last night... as usual...!! Thanks to everyone involved - Alvie & Ger especially, once again you pulled off a fantastic party!! The entertainment was brilliant and all of your hard work and effort paid off. Thanks a million guys!!

As for the balloon incident, poor Roma.. I was lucky I didn't come a cropper as well...!!! It wouldn't be a mini club party without some injuries!!!
Thanks to everyone who made such a journey to come to the party... I'm sure it was well worth it.
Also, big thanks to Pete, Greg and Oliver for taking me home... it took me a while this morning to figure out how I had got there!!!

And on another note, I may or may not have thrown a spring roll at some one.. possibly others, who knows, and just want to say to whoever it was, I am truly sorry... I don't usually throw spring rolls at people... serious apologies!!!
Adrian... I don't know the fate of our tablecloth list... but no doubt some day in the near future we'll compile the list again!!! :king:

I'm not really sure even where to begin ... but let's see ...

It was brilliant to have the catchup pints with our overseas buddies, Anan, Derek, Chris and Nicole, and of course everyone who travelled down from Dublin and further afield too. The food was of course up to the usual Oriel House standard, but the entertainment was unreal. Robert Farmer's quiz show was brilliant, and it was priceless to watch people trying to hammer the buzzers faster than each other, even if they didn't know the answer!

Fair play to Mary for donating her prize money back to the Cork City Hospitals' Childrens' Club, but for a moment there, I thought Eugene had it won for sure.

After that, the disco was just a tad wild, with Ian Wallace's pole dancing, Alvin's molesting of said pole, Paulie's eloquent falling - which this time wasn't too eloquent at all (Try on a carpet next time Paulie :) ), and of course the amazing flying spring rolls. Having to get up the next morning for work was a toughie, but it was great to stay out so late and catch up with everyone.

Well done to the photo competition winners, Oliver, Derek and Alvin, and to all the raffle winners too. I do have to say an extra special thanks to Chris Blackham for sponsoring all the prizes again, especially the presentation awards to our overseas travellers for being so dedicated to our Club and coming to every event.

Well done everyone, and hope to see you all really soon again!

A Big Big Thank You to everyone involved. Excellent Night..... :king:

Thank you also for the brilliant picture prize & the trophy of recognition. :D

What can i say!!

I really enjoyed all the fun and frolics of my 1st Christmas Party with the Mini Club... despite me being stuck to my seat!

Excellent organising, and a great night was had. Loved the Quiz and the slide show, say nothing about some of the antics!

Get well Roma..!!

Thank you
Siobhan.
