Blue Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Pancake Day is not Belfast only. It's everywhere in Ireland (and the UK), as the article says. Pancake Day is on the 16th of Feb this year, the day after the gig in Dublin indeed. That is why I posted the link. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babspanky Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 A Wait...that link is Belfast on the Dublin thread...oh I see, the Dubs gig is on the night before....everyone should have pancakes for breakfast, before giving up Mika for lent Actually on Pancake Day we usually have pancakes for tea, not breakfast. Well we do in our house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Well if tea = dinner, we do the same here. Never heard of Pancake Day before though, but I think it's a nice tradition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sienna Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 ... better than snow... I was just going to say the same!

Shaza! Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 Boooooooo!!!Is there any cover there? Outside the Olympia? Not much But on a brighter note for those coming to Belfast it's meant to be a nice day. ... better than snow... True that We learnt all too well back in January that Dublin has not got a clue how to cope with snow!

mellody Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 ... better than snow... nope. rain means i'll get wet, so i'd definitely prefer some fluffy flakes! especially rain when it's really cold is so awful! you get wet, AND you'll freeze your a** off! let's just hope the forecast is wrong, it's still almost a week, so they might change it 3x until then anyway.

mellody Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 Have you ever tried holding an umbrella? () yes, and i still prefer fluffy flakes. umbrellas are so unhandy, especially in a queue, since there usually isn't enough space, so you'd get an umbrella in your eye, or the water from the umbrella from the person next to you is dripping on you, you don't have your hands free for other things, you get cold fingers, and some venues don't allow to take umbrellas inside, so after the show, you'll be left without an umbrella. and if it's raining really hard, or if it's windy, the small pocket umbrella wouldn't help much, and you'd need a big (expensive) one, which i'm certainly not willing to take with me to ireland and possibly leave it at the venue door! so, um, i guess i'd just prefer if the weather kept dry.

sienna Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 So true! I'd prefer sunshine But I won't be there, so I don't care. Nah, I hope the Weather God will show some sympathy! And Donuts! I've never had Donuts in the queue! Mmm, that would be so:groovy: yes, and i still prefer fluffy flakes. umbrellas are so unhandy, especially in a queue, since there usually isn't enough space, so you'd get an umbrella in your eye, or the water from the umbrella from the person next to you is dripping on you, you don't have your hands free for other things, you get cold fingers, and some venues don't allow to take umbrellas inside, so after the show, you'll be left without an umbrella. and if it's raining really hard, or if it's windy, the small pocket umbrella wouldn't help much, and you'd need a big (expensive) one, which i'm certainly not willing to take with me to ireland and possibly leave it at the venue door! so, um, i guess i'd just prefer if the weather kept dry. Ah cheer up I'm sure it'll be sunshine! And about the umbrellas, we all had to leave them to the guards in Amsterdam, but amazingly enough I got mine back after the show, it was just lying there on a table and I took it. It was well needed a moment later, believe you me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
