The plan for freshers weekend is as follows:
4pm on friday: meet in the engineering car-park at evening to get the bus to Rathgormack where we shall retire to the local pub in time to scare or entertain some local as the mood takes us.
Saturday: river trip for those who can haul their drunk/hungover asses out of bed. Probably some cleaning for the rest of ya :lol:
Later dinner and then some (hopefully!) imaginative fancy dress costumes followed by some definite scaring of the locals when we hit the pub.
Sunday: a short river trip in the morning and then back onto the bus to hear stories from the oldies, then back to UCD and bed for about 3 days in order to recover.
We provide: bus down and back
accomodation (complete with mad owner :wink: )
bus etc for river trips on sat and sun
breakfast on sat/sun and slap up meal sat night
Bring: Fancy dress - this is essential as every year some people think we're lying about fancy dress - we're not 8)
Some money for snacks over the weekend and pints in pub
Paddlin kit (be optimistic - you might get out of bed :lol: )
Stacks of booze (tell the off-licence it's for a party if it'll make you feel better about the quantity :D )
Sleeping bag/ground mat cos there's probably not going to be enough beds for everyone(unless you all score to snore :wink: )
All this for the meagre price of â,¬50 - you won't even need a bank loan!
We'll be taking money from people at the pool sessions this week and next week and also at the river trip on saturday.
Could anyone who's comming down put a post up here so we can get an idea of numbers (please let us know if you intend getting the bus down/back) Thanks :lol:
Hey Caoimhe,
can you book a place on the bus for me both ways please.
I'd be more than willing to share a bed if the numbers are tight :lol:
i'll be there with bells on (well actually not bells, pom poms, but you get the idea!)
I'LL BE THERE!!!
...with wings on!
I'll be there with intentions of cocooning Holly... she can't evolve otherwise! :wink:
Oh and Caoimhe forgot the most important thing... this year it has been decided that the weakest bladder decides the toilet stops :wav:
therefore I will be deciding the toilet stops so they will be plentiful!
Ill be there with either pom poms or a whip still cant decide! and a bus place for me also :)
I was wondering is anybody driving down on Saturday afternoon, cos I cant go on the Friday :cry:
oh ill be there with beard on
viva la hairy revolution
VIVA!!!!!
Don't forget that it is of course compulsory fancy dress, if you arrive without you shall be stripped and waxed :twisted:
Hairy is good. Just remember that, anyway would hope to make it to the bus.
Very little of my life is more memorable (and subsequently less memorable) than the bus journey to Clonmel last year. I believe I shall do it again this year. BUS please!
wahooo!!!!! BUS ME TOO!!!!!!!!
cant wait to initiate all the freshers!!!!!!! :lol:
remembering mine..... :oops:
twas great :P
F R E S H E R S W E E K E N D =
:P + :occasion5: + :sign11: + :occasion9: + :3some: + :la: + :bootyshake: + :drunken: = Meabh there with bells on!!!
yeah i'll take a bus. now to get a costume... maybe a toga, i have a white (sort of) sheet. how original.
yea babes bus me too!
will some one bring a guitar-as claire so nicely put it, with music and booze it wont be a bus journey :( it will be a portable pub with an unlimited number of toilets :occasion5:
Offering lifts for Saturday morning early. Early enough to paddle saturday and staying Saturday night.
My ride will be pimped for this trip. You won't recognise it.
i think myself and allio will be on the bus both ways
I'll be on the bus both ways., and just so i'm clear. Is fancy dress only on saturday night? Is the club bringing thhe boats down?
Fancy dress is traditionally on the Saturday only although no-one would prevent you trying one out on the Saturday aswell. I'll let the committee confirm about the boats. They were brought down on the trailer last year and I can't see any feasable alternative so I'd assume they will be again this year.
since like a tit I am towing the trailer again
I need
the address to the place we are staying
a bed
and a passenger if possible( get bored just by myself I'm very bad company really!)
Quote from: The.Van.Manand a passenger if possible( get bored just by myself I'm very bad company really!)
Don't all rush at once now. :lol:
I won't be going down for the weekend. :(
But I will be going on teh Colours Weekend. :)
I'll take the bus both ways....
with beer & lots of it....
For anyone who's driving down I said I'd post directions since I'm the only one who really knows that area of the country.
Right you're better off taking the Carlow-Kilkenny route south to Clonmel. I'll assume you can find your way to Clonmel adequately.
When you come into the outskirts of Clonmel (you'll pass the Bulmer's or Showerings factory on your right) go straight through all the roundabouts, ie. don't go around the bypass. Drive until you come to a set of traffic lights. Take a left at these lights, go up that street over a bridge and straight on at the next roundabout. This road, if you stick to it will eventually bring you to Rathgormack, it's about five or so miles (maybe more).
Can't wait to see y'all, won't be there for Friday though . So Saturday tis then....
Later, M.
Would really like to go, but i have that whole big problem of having to hitch a lift from Germany, damn, had my lederhosen ready and all for the fancy dress :sad5: Oh well it looks like im just going to have too console myself with a crate of german beer ( 24* .5l for â,¬11 and you get â,¬3 back when you return the bottles i.e. 12litres of beer for â,¬8 ) :occasion5:
Hope you all have a great time,
remember the dirt others do,
try in vain to forget your own drunken nocturnal activities
and lick at least one LOCAL :tongue3: ..........(each)
Cheers
Denis
Lorco and me will be there with smiles on :D
If it's just smiles that you'll be wearing, then I might reconsidder my original plan and go. :twisted:
your favourite pint inspector will be there of course ensuring that every1 stays within the safe limits of alcahol consuption[ie.no 1 gets drunker than me :pukeright: ]
.bus me for the way down please.....though i gottat get bus eireann/lift? back to dublin saturday evening or sunday morning for work.......my poor employers!
:iroc: any1 whos heasding back round the same time as me and would like to help me out will be provided with petrol money,sweeties and of course every1s favourite car accessory.....a lisa :love7:
Book me a place on that passion wagon please. I'm going down on that little beauty :P and I'll take her back, seen as I have no locamotion of my own :cry: .
Looking forward to some fun and dementedness. Mmmmmm buckfast, its been so long!!
I recon bring a couple of bottles of country spring to mix with random spirits and then screw piss stops. One those bonanza country spring bottles should easily hold a bus full of piss, and if it doesn't we can just feck the contents out de window and recycle. You could probably even squeez a number two into one of those litte bad boys :pukeleft:
Lookin forward to seein ye all down there :D
Benny

I'll be going on the bus both ways. Being the uninformed/unprepared American, I have no sleeping bag or ground mat, so I guess I will just have to partake in this weird and foreign custom of "score to snore".

Results will be graded on a complex system which I made up myself.
