    End of an Era

    UCD's Clubhouse, cunningly disguised as a hotel for the past 4 decades, i.e. The Jury's Montrose Hotel has been sold to Superquinn. They intend building apartments and installing a supermarket on the site. Won't leave much room for a hotel then will it?

    Ballcocks. So when's it closing? And where do we go now? The Doyle Tara is the obvious choice (went there after the InterToto game when the Montrose was being redeveloped), but it's a bit far away, especially from the Bowl. The Sports Bar is gone, the SU Bar is crap. Does that jus tleave somewhere out in Clonskeagh?

    I assume Lonegan's, being part of the Montrose, is part of the deal?

    Doyle Tara is miles away. O'Shea's in Clonskeagh isn't too far, Student Centre bar is probably the best.
    We're not arrogant, we're just better.

    Far.

    Lads, it pains me to say this, but I don't see any alternative to the Student's Union.

    On the bright side, the bowl is convenient to Belfield's premier member-of-the-travelling-community drinking spot.

    Are you going to light bonfires at the Water Tower in November?
