May 4, 2008 at 6:34 pm #61041AnonymousInactiveI don’t know what time but we drove past Battle of the Boyne yesterday and the whole place was closed and cameras being set up everywhere so it looks like they are planning something huge.
May 4, 2008 at 9:26 pm #61048Taylor5MemberIt Tuesday, Bertie will be there and its his last offical job as PM.
I would love to know if its open to the public, one of my neighbours is the community garda, so might pop down and ask her if she knows any of the details
May 4, 2008 at 10:41 pm #61051rossylisaMemberi tought it was friday and we went up the secruite fellah told us it was for the public but to get there early think it is at 11 or so
May 5, 2008 at 6:22 pm #61064Taylor5MemberRossy will you give me directions to Oldbridge house?
I only know how to get there from walking from the Battle of the boyne site and accross the fields IYKWIM
Can you drive to the house and get parking?
Im guessing that you would drive past townely hall/ curley hole and then take a left heading for Dowth, I know up that road on the left there is a bend in the road and I think there is a gateway there…… but really lost 😕 😕 😕 😕 😕May 5, 2008 at 8:02 pm #61078rossylisaMemberoh god taylor im s***e at given directions and dh was driving so i wasnt really looking ifykwim but it is near towney hall i remeber we went over a little bridge im useless sorry 😳 😆 will ask dh tomorow and let you know
May 5, 2008 at 8:38 pm #61079Taylor5MemberI know the way you went, the battle of the boyne centre and display area is just over the bridge and now that I think about it there is a gate lodge and gates to the estate.
Dont know if joe public will be allowed to park on the estate or will we mear mortals have to walk or push buggies 🙄
Looking forward to it, might even see you there. I’ll be with Scole and her little fella, we will both be push or chasing two little brats 😆 😆 😆 😆 😆May 6, 2008 at 8:22 am #61101happymumblemumParticipantforgot d is at montesorri this morning, not sure whether to pop down or not, think i am just gonna enjoy the peace at home and watch it live on rte at 11, will look out for you all !!!
May 6, 2008 at 3:23 pm #61135Taylor5MemberWent out an was told to feck off as it was invite only. We couldnt get near the place so we settled for a walk in Townley Hall, which was fantastic. We found about 10 garda hiding in the forest, they had too many on duty and half of them were told to go and sit it out in townely hall 😆 😆 😆 😆
May 6, 2008 at 4:20 pm #61140happymumblemumParticipantyeah i popped down in the end and couldnt get in either 🙁
Glad i hadnt promised dd to see Bertie orI would have been scaling a wall lol!! 😆 😆 😆
May 6, 2008 at 6:50 pm #61146Taylor5MemberI pulled up and asked the garda at the barrier if there was public parking, he took the nose off me and shouted to the other garda who was answering me " Get that fucking car out of there" the Garda was just finishing his sentence to me and he shouted again " Get her f***ing out of here"………. so me being me I asked him with a "f*** you and I pay your wages" 😳 😳 😳 😳 Garda or not he wasnt going to speak to me like that 😆 😆 😆 😆 😆 😆
