Getting out in the pointy boats (marathon)

[Douchier]

Morning folks!

I'm still struggling to get over how well everyone did in varsities...so let's do more of that stuff.
Anyone interested in taking the HP boats out on Tuesday or Wednesday (or Thursday?) evening this week?
There's a race coming up in a couple of weeks and everything - it'll be a a good bit longer than varsities, but that's what training is for!

Anyone who drives and wants to go would be especially welcome. I'd really like to get out to the Liffey, but if we can't get transport then the Dodder will have to do.

Say...boat house at 17.30?

Who's interested?

Wednesday: 6-7 spaces

Thursday 6-7 spaces

I'd love to do wednesday. My lectures are scheduled until 6, but I don't know whether it will be on as the final of the competition is on tuesday night.

If anyone wants to watch my robot be vaguely useless against other amazing (and not so amazing) robots in the Clinton Auditorium fro  7 till 9 on tuesday night you are very welcome! Diarmuid and Ross have both promised their attendance already.

It'll be like Robot Wars, crossed with rugby, but without the weapons and oval shaped ball.   

I'd also be interested in Wednesday marathoning.

I'm in the same boat as derv but If I'm not in till 6 on wednesday I may make it??

[Niall Finch]

I would be very interested on Wednesday night also !

[Tiny Tim]

im always keen for summer training but itll have to wait till axter the zams for me im afraid

[Karen]

I'd be interested in something. After 4ish though, actually more like after 5.

[Douchier]

Karen will drive on Wednesday, aiming to leave as soon as everyone gets their asses in gear (being there for 17.30 would be great as the boats are a bit tricky to tie.

Is there anyone who wants to go out on Thursday instead?

There's a limit to the number that can go: At the moment there's only the Gola, Gola-sprint, Deceptor and wave-hopper in service. fitting all four of these on a roof is a bit of a challenge. If there's another person driving then we could bring some other boats too and swap around.

[Ross]

So no chance of me and Diarmuid taking the duo then?

[Douchier]

Probably not, it could be tricky to get bill and cormac away from it.

So, can you make Thursday instead?

Wednesday will be happening too, Karen's going out with whomever prefers Wednesday (numbers allowing)

[DervM]

Thursday suits me!

[MarieH]

Hey  Oh, paddling trumps study any day! Thursday would suit me if ye are heading out.

[Diarmuid]

I'm driving wednesday
myself and Ross for the Duo

Boathouse at 5.30 aye

[DervM]

[Diarmuid]
