GPS loves exhibiting at 091 labs!

... and we made a show of ourselves! Wa wa wa.

This was all for our exhibit all along one wall of 091 Labs as part of Culture Night last night, the 21st of September! More here and here.

I don't have time to fill you guys in on everything right now, as more socialising beckons, but I shall edit this post later. Anyway, who cares what I have to say - here's the Art!

THIRD BIRTHDAY PARTY WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY-HEY!

Huge, huge doings tonight as we celebrate Pub Scrawl's 3rd Birthday! Celebrations, sketches, cake and crafts! Thanks SO MUCH to all of y'all who came on down to have fun in the Pub.

There's still the exhibition in 091 labs for Culture Night this Friday, you guys. I am super excited. :) I hope it'll be at least approaching the fun of the birthday party.

Here's your pics - I have to get a few hours sleep before work in the morning, so full commentary, links, etc. when I have a chance!



























Again, thanks to everyone who helped us celebrate. I have a little plan for next month called Sketchtoberfest! May the Pub Scrawl be ten times as good by this time next year - everyone who comes and participates makes the Pub Scrawl that much better every year, minimum. We are now at least a hundred times better than we were at the start. :D

A big reminder!

Don't forget to help us celebrate our Third Birthday tomorrow, the 17th September, at 20:30 GMT!

We'll be in the back room of our local, McSwiggans with piles of cake and goodies. You can also find us through a Hangout on our Google+ Page, although you'll have to virtualise the cake somehow. Photos to follow as quickly as possible, if that helps...

Also, don't forget we've been asked to exhibit all along one wall in 091 Labs as part of Culture Night on Friday, the 21st of September! More here and here.

Galway Pub Scrawl #70 - AARGH!!! FROGS!!!

Oh my god, the weather was disgusting in Galway tonight. Pub Scrawl was correspondingly quiet, I can't blame anyone. It was horrible out. Some people still struggled into the Pub, these are the heroes of this world. Heroes or fools, the line between, as usual is very thin.

Anyway, photos!

Here we are, wet and bedraggled. :)

I was copying portrait photographs as always, another one from portrait-photos.org

Yolande was knitting shells.

Ger was tweaking his comics.

New scrawler Helen was crocheting Bender!

And Ger was so productive he worked on another piece as well!

That's it from a very, very wet and windy Galway this week. Check back in for announcements next Monday and our Third birthday in two weeks time!
