Film, Paddy’s, Belfast, Galway
Hi everyone! Ed here!
Four things in this post: Film announcement, St. Patricks Day, Belfast Trip, Galway Trip.
First off, the film for this weekend will be Superbad. It’s a hilarious American comedy, well worth watching! Bit of a change from last week… The film will begin, as usual, at 8:00 PM, this Sunday evening in the Arts Block, Theatre 1 (or 2, depending on wether the projector plug works).
Next: St. Patrick’s Day! As every year, we arrange a meeting time to get the train into Dublin so you can all get good spots for the parade! It is important to be in town early to get good spots for the parade! The timetable says there is a train 10:30 AM from Maynooth train station going to Connolly Station, and this is the best time to go in! I’ll be working my security job all day starting at 12:00, but please come by to say hi! I’ll be at The Bailey, just off of Grafton Street! I’d love to see you there! But dress nice, otherwise I can’t let you in! Haha! Here’s a little map to help you locate the place (link).
As for the trips: we will begin sign-ups for both the Belfast and Galway trips this Sunday evening! We will be there in Theatre 1 from 7:30 pm for sign-ups!
The Belfast trip will be from 4—6 April (Fri. to Sun.), and costs 55 EUR per person. Links: 1, 2, 3
The Galway trip will be from 18—20 April (again Fri. to Sun.) and costs 60 EUR per person. Links: 1, 2, 3.
I would like to mention that each of the hostels has trips on offer that you can sign-up for right at the reception desks! The hostel in Belfast offers the Giant’s Causeway and Black Taxi Tours (Floz’ photos from last year), and the hostel in Galway offers the Connemara, Aran Islands (more photos), and Burren / Cliffs of Moher Tours! So, if you are interested in doing any of these great day trips while visiting Belfast or Galway, you can sign-up and pay for them right at the reception desks of the hostels when we arrive there!
That’s all for now! Hope to see you all this Sunday for the film and sign-ups, and also out in Dublin on St Patrick’s Day!
