Reilly's CCXXXVI: Journey to the End of the Universe.

[Andy Broadley]

Seems like we all got lives eventually.

*Looks at his post count*

Well, except me perhaps......

 

[Andy Broadley]

*Raises glass*

Absent friends

 

[Andy Broadley]

Hard to believe that it's over four years since I first wandered in here in search of good Irish whiskey

A lot of water under the bridge since then. So many people no longer here in Reilly's. Many good friends, dearly loved and missed.

 

[Andy Broadley]

Lonnie...a man among men, and a great friend. man I miss that guy

*Laughs* Well, I haven't exactly gotten much of a life the past 2 or 3 years either, though often I'm not able to be on for very long.

 

[Andy Broadley]

Cat. Even as an athiest, peobably the best Christian ever to walk through those doors. Still around from time to time, but like many others, busy with trivial matters such as life...lol....miss you Cat

A year in Spain, collage, swimming, acting......and you say you have no life?

*Laughs* Well, I still manage to check in at least once a day most days Though you do have somewhat of a point there

Aaron...forever the indesptable King of Reilly's. My inspiration and a good friend.

There used to be a large group of 'regulars' in here. Wish you could have experienced it. Awesome nights in here. But one by one we have all drifted our seperate ways and those days are gone now

*Nods* I definitely remember the days when there used to be more activity, even if I was somewhat of a latecomer to the show.

....and I could go on all night in this way. So many who deserve a mention in the Reilly's hall of fame.

Sandy, mother of Reilly's and without whom there woulod BE no Reilly's. Emma, she of the perpetual coffee machine. AnnM, and the night of the long Veggie tales. Still with us but only just.....

 

[Andy Broadley]

.....and then there are those of us who still get in here, albeit much less often

Lel, Anne, Steph, Debbie, Shannon.

And me and the missus of course

Oh we had some wild nights in here.

The now very respectable Eve (Mrs BillH) dancing on the tables at a Grease party (accused ME of spiking the milk shakes )......Digging a tunnel from here to the Anglican Alehouse......I even got murdered in here one night (I got better), struck over the head with the oscer for worst supporting actress.

We have laughed, we have cried, we have quarrelled and we have loved....often at the same time.

If you ever get bored enough, have a dig in the archives and read through some of the old pubs, especially those in the first 50 0r 60.

 

[Andy Broadley]

And although I have made quite a few posts tonight, this is nothing to Anne's 10 page monologues, or AnnM's marathon Veggie tales sessions.

And the parties....oh man the parties

 

[Andy Broadley]

These days a pub will last a couple of weeks and more. Back then it was 4 or five pubs a week.

 

[Andy Broadley]

In fact we once completed a full 1000 post pub in less than four hours. Lonnie, Bill and I did the last 300 in an hour. I had blisters on my fingers that night.

 

[Andy Broadley]

*Gets the Bushmills from behind the bar*

Gonna be that kind of night I think....

 

[Andy Broadley]

Been a while since I did this.....
