I think €10 - €15 is ok really. Any surplus can go into a "kitty" for something which will aid these meetups. Either subsidise the next one or a coffee machine or whatever. Is there nearby parking Simon? Just thinking of access for large heavy boxes etc. I know the hall to pass by... lovely building.

yep, I'm up for that. Even if we could stop to unload and then park across the road or something would be AOK I think.

I *think* we'll be able to use the church carpark. I have a zapper which should do the job, assuming they don't mind.

I'm also interested. FYI I am a member of a wine club with approximately 16 members who meet in a parish hall approx 7-8 times a year in the evening. The insurance cost is approx. € 200. I would think a club like this would need some insurance or alternatively the parish may have cover. The fact alcohol is involved probably is a significant factor in wine club but it might also be a consideration for this proposal.

Don't know what others think, but my gut is that trying to kick this off before Christmas might be too lofty a goal. Should we choose a date in January and try to make it happen? Although now that I say that I see that I'm basically only free one Sunday: the 15th.

Dates are going to be the difficult bit I think.

I'm sorry to say, but if we can't use their parking, i don' t really see the point.
100 euros for 3 hours isn't exactly cheap.
I don't know the details of the room though. but...

for 150 euros, we can get half a day of castle goodness with a parking.

The Viking suite has alot of space :
Width: 9.7m
Length: 19.8m
Height: 2.6m
Total Floor Space: 193m

Someone with a better english accent than me could contact them. Or, using that website, might find other suitable venue.

Like this one, less nice, close to Dublin Airport, 77 euros :

Room Dimensions
Width: 15m
Length: 15m
Height: 3m
Total Floor Space: 225m

More expensive : 150 euros for half a day, but with 4m height !

Room Dimensions
Width: 9.14m
Length: 7.6m
Height: 4m
Total Floor Space: 70m

I think, we could also investigate Yatch Club and Golf Club, they usually have nice room to rent.

Cheers,
