Varsities is upon us!
This weekend there will be no river trip, as the UCDCC are travelling to the far and distant land of Castlebar, Mayo!
The trip will cost €55, so get your money to Jer as soon as you can! He'll be skulking arounf the lunches on Monday and Tuesday as well as the pool and pub on Thursday :)
Bus leaves at 6pm on Friday 17th January (Polo players will be leaving on Friday Morning, Coach should have all the info) and we will be returning on the evening of the 19th.
What you'll need:
-Kayaking Gear
-Sleeping Bag
-Money for Extra Food/Drink
-Fancy Dress Costume
Varsities is the one time of the year where we actually compete in real life competitions that only sometimes involves how amazing at drinking and fancy dress we are, so everyone should try come along and show of some BROWN UCDCC Kayaking Skills!
Best of luck to everyone planning to compete, do us proud!
Pretty sure Castlebar is in Mayo but otherwise CAN'T WAIT !!!!!! afro.gif

Here is some motivation! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OSYtQy9EqTA)
Play hard, drink hard and just be yourselves.
I'll be at the board on Tuesday at one and at the pool session on Thursday.
If anyone wants to pay on Wednesday gimmie a shout, I'll be around at 12 and 2, might have lunch at the board at 2.
Deadline for entering competition:

Long distance is our big send off, and it's really worth everyone competing in and showing our numbers!
Peace, out.
Count me in, hooray!
I won't be around at all until Friday so can either pay Jer then, or Bill before then.
And will anyone with roofracks be driving to the pool on Thursday? I need to get a boat from Northside to the boathouse.
News just in - polo peeps lost 4-2 in their first match, 3/1 odds of being wildcard. A few prayers to the big man and boom got the wildcard and got a bye to the quarter final...a woo!
I've no idea how that works but hooray!
ha yeah we got beaten so got into the quarter finals afro.gif
there was an uneven no of teams i think so there was a wildcard, me thinks...
So how'd you get on? I hope there is a huge amount of gossip! Remember the bus ride home is the ideal time to study for exams
2nd overall! :D
So whose writing the article for the college rags?
Congrats guys!! Kieran's right, someone write this shit up!
Left my intervarsities the room. Sad face.
Plum petals falling
I look up...the sky,
a clear crisp moon.
Is it just me who didn't understand Bill's post?

Ah. Missing from the sentence was the word "t-shirt". I left my GMIT intervarsities t-shirt behind in out room. Did anyone find it?
Or a dark green PeakUK lightweight cag? :'(
Or a pair of glasses?

Or my dignity ?

I was in apartment 9, first room on right.
:laugh:
im fairly sure i lost a hoody somewhere, blue & navy hoops with a white zip... :(
Was chatting to them up there, all the apartment haven't been cleaned out yet but he will check 9 for your cag. What apts might the other stuff have been left in?
Outside on sunday they found a brown bag type thing that seems to have a jacket or something in it. Ring any bells.
Brill! I left it in the wardrobe on a hanger...
Knicker elastic! Tie everything to yourself and never loose anything!
Left a Blue Ski Jacket somewhere in one of them if they find it.....
Matt by any chance is it grayish and more like a peckuk jumper then what I would call a cag. Well that is what was found in that wardrobe and I have Finch's jacket also in another wardrobe . They will be cleaning them over the weekend and he will give me what ever else they find hidden in presses and I will being to the ball.
