PARKER BROWNS nightclub at Dundrum shopping centre was the place to be for many south Dublin teens last night, as Junior Certs queued to celebrate their results.
Nicole Coffey (15), a pupil at Loreto Abbey, Dalkey and St Andrews, Booterstown, pupil Haley McNamara (15), had heard about the event on Facebook and paid €15 for tickets.
The pair, outside taking a breather from the “packed” disco, were in high spirits and in high fashion for the evening. In vertiginous heels, mini-dresses and false eyelashes, they said while the disco was branded alcohol-free, they thought some “might have had alcohol”.
Outside perennial favourite, Donnybrook's Wesley nightclub, one group of male students wasnt too happy about missing out on tickets to Parker Browns.
With parents picking them up at 11.45, they said they were looking forward to “some dancing, maybe some girls from Loreto Foxrock.”
Meanwhile in the city centre, Louise Raymond (15) a pupil at Warrenmount school in Blackpitts said she delighted with her exam results. She and her friends had been to popular Chinese buffet restaurant Jimmy Chungs on Eden Quay for a meal. “I dont want to go out drinking,” said Louise. “I just wanted to get something to eat with all my friends.”
And at 9pm, what were they up to next? “Were all going home.”
