Title: Stuff this week
Post by: Cli on November 19, 2007, 10:55:35
Thursday pool session - Trinity 8.15pm, €2.

Saturday Trip - Boathouse 9.15am, €10, water depending we will be heading to wicklow.


Edit: Ok guys going by weather forcast we are looking at having a savage day in Wicklow this weekend. Unless all this lovely Rain falls through, here's the plan:

The Club will be meeting at the boathouse at 9.45 and the bus will be leaving at 10.15 sharp. We have to leave early because we dont want to run out of daylight. The club trip will be from Bucky's Bridge.

A Super Speshul Stealth Mission Crew involving all the cars that care to go and as many people as we can possibly squeeze into said cars will be drivinng to Trooperstown to met there at approx 10.15. This trip will meet the club trip at Buckys. (ote due to time contraints on this trip, swimming will be taken very seriously, and will be at the very least a "Suicide Bong" event.)

Finally Some Rain, HURRAH!


We're holding a Table Quiz  this Tuesday in the forum bar (centre club) at about 8.30-9pm. It's a fundraiser and costs €5 a head. Four people per team (€20) and feel free to put you're own team together. If you come on your own, no worries, most people will and we can throw teams together. The questions are being organised by Joey Byrne and I haven't a clue what kinda topics there'll be. I'm pretty sure it'll be like a normal quiz with a round on paddling, and a round on the club or something. Come come, it'll be a good laugh and we have some prizes too (including paddling gear). Oh, and bring cans!

Also, for the ladies in the club: before the quiz on Tuesday we are having a paddling talk aimed specifically towards female paddlers. Some of the things being discussed are how to overcome the particular difficulties faced by girl boaters, to become more spatially aware in your boat and start to understand how you can learn the bio mechanics of new manoeuvres. (Bex's words - fancy fancy!). As Tuesday is our fund-raising night, this talk is €1. Meet at the Board (Arts E) at 7.30pm and we'll go from there.

Just so people know I am no way involved in the question making or choosing for this quiz!! I will just be reading out whatever is on the paper given to me! Hopefully there will be alot of people there so there will be more people for me to abuse from my position of power!

I am trying to get John Flanagan to be co-presenter of this event so if anyone thinks he would be great put a post up!! This is the exactly the start we need on our road to becoming the Irish Ant and dec!!!

John Flanagan, STAND UP!!!


I'm writing the questions tonight, so likely topics include;
the committee, paddling, and some general knowlege stuuf, such as antepartum haemorrhage, postpartum haemorrhage, maternal mortality in the 1950's, induction of labour, anything to do with gynaecology, typical and atypical result of indirect Coomb's test. I figure no one wants to go to a tabel quiz where they know all the answers, it'd just be tooo easy.

Post by: Monkey Loving Bob on November 21, 2007, 18:54:33
Don't under any circumstance watch it being poured, when you wake up the day after you might actually be able to convince yourself it wasn't that bad this way.
