Hi All,

After 3 great parties in 2009, we kick off 2010 with our 1st party of the year. Come and join us to celebrate St Valentines day and the start of Chinese New Year for the New and Not So New In Dublin members.

2010 is the Chinese year of the Tiger. In particular, this is the year of Gēng-yín 庚寅 (Metal Tiger). Gēng is the seventh of the ten celestial stems and Yín (Tiger) is the third of the twelve terrestrial branches, thus February 14th 2010 marks the year of the Tiger with its association to bravery.

We will have great music and food, a buffet of Chinese and international cusine and of course chocolate and cake. Food will be served at 9pm

Come join us for a fun night. Pre pay tickets are available from me at €18.00 and any of the up and coming events or €20.00 at the door on the night.

    Jeff is indeed a bit of a hero. I think we'd be sat at home tonight otherwise. Surely the man should never have to buy a drink EVER again! :)

    Hi Folks, I am very much with Anne-Marie on this one. Jeff has put an incredible amount of work into the events which are wonderful. The party is at McGrattans. All are welcome and made to feel very welcome - particularly new comers. I have not doubt it will be another great night

    Just to say, don't worry about going in on your own...as soon as Jeff spots you he'll whisk you off and introduce you to ABSOLUTELY EVERYBODY! How does he remember everybodies name? Was my first time last week and I had a great time.

    I haven't been to a meetup before. If there's a pre-meetup meetup that would be great.
