to kerry or not to kerry?
JODY:
I'd say stay in Kerry... there are so many good rivers down there & we are a canoe club after all... thats what we go for (if only it would rain ::)).
I dont think the prices are excesive in Rossbeigh considering the demand, its just a pity the houses are so cold but thats gonna be a problem wherever we go. It is the middle of winter & most holiday house are built for summer use.
Anyway, has anyone gone on the other clubs boards about it yet? As far as i know a few of the colleges already have plans about where to go next year.
Siobhan UL:
Price vs value may be a bigger issue. The hire price may be the same in August but you are far less likely to have to spend the first two days of your rental getting the damp and cold out of the house then and there is a huge expense involved in that also.
I'd be up for changing but I've no idea about the rest of UL.
Sick Boy:
i have been talking to trash about it. infact it was trinity who suggested we look into it last year, i think something came up and we never got round to it. as far as i know trash has been talking to some people from ul. anyway what i got back from her was that everyone might be interested at looking for another possible location, maybe hence this post are peeps interested and so on and so forth. you picking up what im puting down?
dannylyit:
If you are looking at donegal i could give you a few places to go. A few of us were to be in kerry for the new years but i couldnt get off work which ruined it for everyone else as i was driving but from limerick to donegal is 4 hours. Have made that trip many times and its pretty much within the time frame of getting to dublin on a busy day. It was timed for me to be in rossbeigh in 5.30 hours.. i do drive fast but not excessively fast so the north west is within reach of most clubs.
The roads are pretty good in most places... like on every road except the ones in donegal... naw its not that bad but its like any county in the northwest they are bad in places.
Keep us posted in Lyit about where you's are headn throughout the year and ill get the club to move on more events than just the intervarsities.
P.S
Oh there is a place in donegal called rosbeg and it is int he middle of nowhere with good surf and river close by and oh there is one hotel/pub there so why change the name just the location :P
And it rains a hell of a lot more in donegal than anywhere else so rain isnt usally a problem for us
