Anyone on for a challenge in the Liffey Descent

<< < (2/2)

Lorcan:
Donnie

You should know by now that speaks for me as well.

I also accept

Lorcan

Jim:
Be warned Lorcan and John that this race will be a test of your relationship. Two-people racing boats are known as divorce boats. It's fraught with relationship perils.

Who goes in the back? Who calls the stroke? What to do if one of you is tired and wants a snooze? This could be the end of the beautiful thing you guys have going on there.

Also, paddling K boats is really frigging difficult.

Not to mention this particular boat's illustrious history - did you know that Donnie once featured on the front page of the Irish Times in this boat, working the magic on Lucan weir in the Descent? So you'll have the weight of history and expectation on your shoulders too.

Not that I'm questioning your joint abilities and qualifications, you understand. Just Flannigan's.

Jim.

Lorcan:
My dearest Jim

Clearly i the fatter and less fit person will be occupying the back of the boat.

Therefore i will be the one shouting at john as i drink my way down the descent.

as long as we finish which i am not saying will be easy at least we will have completed the race in a K2 a feat that mr mollo will appreciate.

Thanking you for your much appreciated advice

Anyone fancy doing the descent in a donkey costume?

Donnie:
It seems like the club has a K2 racing boat in the Liffey Descent this year!
