Oman trip

Wednesday, April 30th, 2008
Ok gang
Sorry about the last minute-ness of this but here is the craic for Oman.
We are leaving from the crown plaza at 8o’clock on thursday for our 10:20 flight to muscat on Oman Air.
The tournament will be all day Friday and i will give people more details about that on Friday.
We are staying at the Beach Hotel in Muscat. Couples will be in a Double room and the rest in twin rooms with extra beds.
As far as I know the only couples going are Dec and Brid, Brian and Sarah and Cathal and Gillian. If there is any change to this can you let me know asap.
Saturday we have to be in the Airport for 6:30 but the day is your own until then. I assume we will have to be out of the hotell between 12 and 2 but we can work out arrangements for that once we are there.
We should be back in Abu Dhabi by 9:30 on Saturday night.
Most of us will be meeting in Heroes at 7ish tomorrow -  see you then.

BBQ and Beach Party, April 10

Wednesday, April 16th, 2008

Thursday April 10th saw the inaugural Abu Dhabi Na Fianna/Irish Society beach party take place at The Club and what a night it was. A crowd of 200 people showed up on the night – a number that far exceeded our initial expectations – and a big thank you must go out to all who supported this event. Click for more pics!

The Club put on a fantastic spread of food (it’s funny how, when free food is available, the vulture comes out in all of us!!!) and entertainment was provided by our own resident DJ ‘Michael Buaichaill Feic’ (aka Canada Mike). Mike did a fantastic job, so much so that rumour has it that Paul Van Dyke is looking for him to do a set at his next Dubai show!!!

We were also blessed with a rare guest appearance in the form of former WWE wrestling great Bam Bam Bigaloe (aka Trev Buckley), although Trev’s – sorry I mean Bam Bam’s  – fashion sense left a lot to be desired!!!

Everybody who turned up had a great night so hopefully this night can become a regular fixture in our social calendar for many years to come. A big thank you must go out to both Brid Tierney and Ben Kehoe for the fantastic work they did in organizing this event – without their efforts this night would not have been possible. And finally, a big thank you to The Club for hosting our event and having set up everything perfectly, contributing immensely to what was a memorable night!
