Any word on what section in Wickla?
Depends on water levels and numbers, but most likely rathdrum to the meeting of the waters.
-
Is that the bit by Claralara?
-
No Clara lara is on a different section
-
I'll be there too
-
Ill see you there.
-
Great stuff, looks like good numbers so far!!!
-
No Clara lara is on a different section
Why not do both sections? If it's high then you might get both done in time.
-
Rathdrum to the meetings is long enough as it is douchbag.
-
Annamoe? please please please please please
-
You all better wrap up! It's gonna be a cold one.
...and Finch? You better have a proper wet-suit...NOT A SHORTY, thermals and SHOES!
If you get "death by cold", be it on your own head.
-
im there
-
Moi :)
-
Me please ;D
-
Can we go to the Tallaght lesiure-plex instead?
-
lets go to the NAC :)
-
Are you going to rathdrum to the meetings? If so what time do you want to be there at? Cause I will be coming from carlow I won't be going to dublin

You know ursellf Kieran... Boathouse at ten (10.20)... Committee mayhem(10.30)... Tie the trailer(11.00)... More Mayhem(11.15)... Get the freshers on the bus(11.30)...Trailers tyre falls off, needles to say more mayhem(12.30)... Get to the river(1.00)... Freshers boat explodes(1.30)... Mayhem(2.00)...
So i'd say we'll be at the get on around half 11 - 12.
-
Or more likely 11.30 - 12.00. People should be well used to this right now and we'll be able to get moving fairly quickly.

This sounds way more fun than any river trip I've been on. We have to make a fresher's boat explode. I vote Leighton.
-
Great idea Evan, we'll allow him to bring the t-canyon and we can get rid of the damn thing once and for all, i'll bring the TNT.
-
Guys, I don't condone bullying Leighton. Pick some other fresher...but not Eoghan, or jer, or Rowan, how about Aengus...he's getting a bit cocky...
-
But Aengus wouldn't paddle the t-canyon so we would end up having to watch a g-force blow up and they're nice boats.
-
You're a meanie Lucy! :'(
But i do think u should blow up my boat
-
Grand so
-
I vote fill his boat with expanding filler so he gets trapped in his boat until it bursts with the foam
-
I suppose the instructions do just say that the boat will explode. It doesn't say from what. Can we do a practice run with you Bill?
-
Private boat!
Hah!
-
Exactly. That way the club doesn't have to worry about replacing it. It makes far more sense
-
Meh, never can have enough boyancy I always say!
-
Ha ha!! I have the secretary on my side now, all I need is the safety officer and the club is mine. Matt, remember the talk about side-burns? Get on it.
Seriously though, if anything happens to the T-Canyon I'm gone, no foolin. The club won't be able to survive without me and that's a fact, check wiki.
-
I just wiki'd us - we're not real, I have been wondering where the self-esteem issues in the club come from and now we all know, we're non-i-entities!
Diarmaid, get on it for all our sakes.
God speed sir...
-
... you want me to write a wikipedia article about UCD canoe club?
ok, everyone throw some poorly researched facts about the club my way and I'll compile them.
-
I'm the heart of it should be there. We don't do much canoing. We come from UCD.
That's about it.
-
Im able to go :)

You know Leighton has a point here. We don't do enough conoing. I say less canoeing and more canoing.
-
I can't make it anymore, sick. BOO >:(
