Woop Woop Guys !
It's the First River Trip !!!!! Wahoooooo
So we're going to meet at the boat house at 10 in the Morning. Pack the trailer with all our gear and head off to the wonderful, magical and majestic Weir that is Lucan Weir for an afternoon of introductory paddling on moving water !
So, what you'll need is your own swimming trunks, a pair of old shoes you don't mind getting wet, a towel,10 Euro for the days activities as well as a bag full of Banter, because it's going to be a banterful day !!!!!!
Here's a guide made by our now Captain, then Safety Officer : Maryanne Doyle about helpful hints of the Dos and Don'ts of staying warm on the water : http://forum.ucdcanoeclub.com/index.php/topic,10222.0.html
Here's a map to the boat house for those who don't aready know :

hi my name is linn and i would like to sign up please!
I'm up for a bit too... If there's no space on the bus I can take the car...
Can I make my own way there and ask if diarmuid can get stuff ready for me ? It'd be easier that way for me.
Sorry for the delay. I wanted to finalise plans and make sure I wasn't left liftless. I will not be requiring a bus seat.

Agree! Also I saw some serious edges being lifted and held, nice work guys :)
Also, the Liffey was at 4 megs or 32 cumecs while we were out, that's the highest it gets to (bar a flood) and you all styled it 8)

However it's a very different kind of turtle that Diarmuid's referring to.
