Groovy. There's a possibility I'll be coming to this, which would make it my first comp outside the UK.

 

[UAmikey]

Awesome. It was great last time I went, can't wait to go again!

I've never been to Ireland but it's not going to be easy to persuade Mrs Base that this is a good idea.

Any tips?

Bribery?

Important travel question: if we vote ourselves out of the EU two days before the comp, will we need visas to get into Ireland?

Most likely not. I'd wager that there'd be a little wait or transitional period before Visas are required, considering the uncertainty over the referendum's outcome. I mean I'd imagine it would cause a lot of commotion among those who regularly travel between the UK and Ireland for business reasons and whatnot- if they make Visas required the moment the outcome is announced.

...But I could be 100% wrong about this...

I don't think it'll matter to me, since I'm considering spending the whole week in Ireland as a little holiday for myself, so I'll be in the country before the votes are counted.

@Tyler Comfy Hat, you missed the smiley! No doubt there will be a transitional period before our collapsed currency is replaced by the dollar and civil war subsides, too.

I really have to look at how expensive flights and all will be, but would be great to be there

-edit- Oh, and obvs have to check to get the days off of work and all, flights are still under a 100quid, so that ain't too bad

There's no schedule on the comp site. Do you have it?

 

[Pitzu]

Hi Guys,
do you know anything about format & time limits of blind events? I'm thinking of going.

 

[newtonbase]

Can't get permission to go I'm afraid. Maybe next year.

 

[Oisin]

Yes I'm registered can't wait. I actually got a gopro don't know why but it'll be fun

 

[Tyler Comfy Hat]

Everything booked to go on my end. Can't wait to meet a bunch of Irish Cubers! See you all there.

 

[Sidster]

Any meet up plans for tonight?
