But you're the only regular poster from Ireland!
We're only coming to see YOU!


I like the Irish crew, it's a case of them across the water coming over. I had to endure sense and Dave. ;)

Is there any point in telling you? You're not gonna show up anyway!


Depends on who goes if i'm being honest. I don't want to be sat next to someone I don't like on here. This thing of "oh they're different in real life" doesn't sit with me. If you need to act the cunt on a website and then be totally different off it, then I think you have some issues. Either way the Irish JU will go ahead if i'm there or not.



Ah! That's why you never came to one when I lived there.

So basically we're back to square one. Didn't you once organise a jolly up and didn't turn up?

From my experience, some of the people that behave all nice and kind on here are some of the biggest assholes I've met in real life, and vice-versa, so you might be in for a surprise if you only go to meet BCBers that you think are "nice".

I've yet to meet a BCBer in person that I didn't like. And I've met a lot of them.

I met one BCBer once who I really didn't like. Everybody else was at least tolerable.

Jolly Ups are the preserve of the first generation of BCBers.

How many posters who joined after the ex-Mojo crew had disappeared off to Facebook in the early 2010’s attend Jollys?

How many of the Jolly Uppers actually chip in on BCB these days?

To be fair, you immediately acquired a different reputation.


Yes but after that I lost my dignity. Or so I’m told. :(

Last time I saw it, it was in a skip outside the Blue Posts next to my self-respect.

Good lord, I did leave early.
