Good morning strangers,

Hope you are all nursing "Big" heads this morning!
Sorry we couldn't make it this year, (only discovered it was on Friday past!)
I'm sure you all had a great night as usual, I hope Paulie made to the end;)

Must pop back more often (new lappy now) hope to see you all soon!!

It was a legendary night. Jon Alexander drove all the way down from the west for a surprise visit, we had good food, a great band, all sorts of antics down in the residents bar. Few new members as always, lynchie on top form air guitaring, serious prizes in the raffle, and I didn't see my bed until about half five. Great great fun :)

Seconded Owen it was a great night with some great craic had by all. The usual suspects were entertaining as ever, and some favourite stories were retold to new folk, they never get too old to hear again. :)

Thanks for organising another great party lads!

What time is it Laura? I've 8.00 O' Clock!! Well what can i say the whole weekend was a blast.. From the lovely meal on Friday to a party of parties on Saturday night.

The band were, rock so it was hard to keep up to the beat, so a red haired man swept me off my feet
The little Mini Car's were gorgeous, and one was won by a member who's only just new
John Alexander chatted to one and all, he made the mother of all journeys and the time just flew
Tim & Alvie raffled the tickets, many won prizes to the shrieks of delight
All of a sudden there were spilts in the air thanks to Lynchies Flair for some of the night
Mrs Clause even made an appearance with a red dress, lace & some feathers
and the boots were her trusted leathers!

The band finished up on the floor
To the residents bar did we travel for more, and along came Owen with his trusted guitar
We began the usual rendition of tunes, from young & old but the clock struck 3
Alvin called time with a gold clock that woudn't shine!
The bar closed before who knew what to say
That was the end of the MCOI Annual Party, hey hey hey!

Paulie tried in vain to keep the eyes open at the MCOI Party he knew,he tried to stay awake but alas he failed
Sure what about it, at least his shirt was spared
The craic was mighty, the company too, well roll on the next MCOI get together, to name but a few!
Thanks to everyone it was a hell of a do!

What a fantastic night. My first MCOI Annual Party and I had a blast. Can't wait for the next one. :) It was great seeing everyone and catching up with those who travelled long distances to be at the party.

Thanks to all who helped organize this brilliant night! x

Greetings Oh wise ones,
I do not envy the headache you all had after your awaken :blob6: :blob6: :blob6: I must admit I am tinged green with envy, gutted, devastated and slowly sinking to the bottom of a fungi ridden stinkin pond due to missing last night :1icon_cry: :1icon_cry: :1icon_cry:
I hope the insanity was at the peak of nuts, (walnut whip style)
It is the first party I missed and it will be the last.....It vill never happen again...
I have been talking myself out of leaving the couch for the last 16 hrs and its about to happen.........
Hope to see you at MTI (If Ger gives the correct date this time!)
Taraaaaaaaaaaaaaaa............

Ps...cant believe its a whole year since I lost my legs......................

Just in case everyone hasn't seen it, there's about 166 photos up on the main site. Go to miniclub.ie, click gallery, and choose the party album. Thanks to Pete for uploading all the shots, and Greg for being our paparazzi last night.
