Hello world,

I'm Dave Cox. People seem to like me because I am polite and I am rarely late. I like to eat ice cream and I really enjoy a nice pair of slacks. Years later, a doctor will tell me that I have an I.Q. of 48 and I am what some people call mentally retarded.

Well, i'm still Cliodhna and pretty much exactly the same as last year! doing civil Eng, tall with curly hair and i live miles away, spending my life trekking in and out of town (im very bitter about that!).
love compliments, minstrels and dancing. hate boiled potatoes, waiting at the bus stop in the rain and when it's windy and those little bits of dust go in my eyes.

im the one who sends the emails and buys the biscuits. and my name is pronounced 'cli-ye-na' or if you cant manage that 'clean-a'.

Post by: Towelyey on September 24, 2007, 11:58:45
i am towel i like to to remind people of the importance of having a towel - especially when you go paddling as after a few hours in the water you tend to get wet n if your as good a paddler as me you'll get in a few swims while your there!!!

So DONT FORGET TO BRING A TOWEL!!!

i am also known as alli murray but im not the real alli murray i am a fake!! the real alli murray is far cooler, hotter and has superior boobs but unfortunately the real alli murray is not around too much so your just gona have to put up with me - the fake - for a little longer!!

Post by: becca on September 24, 2007, 12:07:25
yeah,he's got you there kyle.he may be totally stupid but he's not a ginger and therefore has the inherent ability to not only beat all gingers at everthing ever but also to be able to slag you for the fact that you're a ginger and have people sympathise with him...life is just grossly unfair isn't it?

hi,i'm becca.
if you're a fresher i might have told you otherwise.also,to all those who i have introduced lucy to as "blade",i apologise.lucy is in fact "lucy" and not "blade".you might think i pick on gingers,because lucy is a ginger and i once humorously called her blade who is also known as "day walker". there's a connection there.i don't have anything against gingers.blonde isn't that far away from ginger anyway....but it's far enough.

Ritchie, Why you change what I wrote?

Did you change it back or what are you doing?

Is this allowed here? cos on any other forum I've been on it isn't acceptable.

Welcome to the board. On the editing a freshers post so you can make a joke about someone else. It's not fair and is really not on. Ritche was just returning your post to normal. Luckily anyone editing a post leaves a trail so you know exactly who to blame.

Hi Eveyone,

I'm Laura (aka Lorco), I'll be dragging my sorry ass home from New Zealand at Christmas after a year and a half here, a little older but definatly not any wiser, (I'm still haven't gotten the hang of staying IN my boat). I survived 4 years in the Club previous to that.

So will be seeing you all in Kerry for New Years! Until then, be good (or wha'eva) and if in doubt, paddle hard!
