Title: Next Saturday - Boyne / Annamoe
Post by: Mark on February 12, 2008, 13:49:48
Yo Yo. I said a few posts ago that soon we wouldn't be ordering the bus to get to the river. That time has come!

If you are going on saturdays trip please post up here. Also please post if you are planning on driving.

Perhaps the weekend that many of the club's drivers are going down to a seperate rescue weekend is not the weekend to begin this. Just a thought.

WE NEED MORE COWBELL!!!

MananaManana delivers cowbell (http://www.mananamanana.com/italy_may7.htm) - cowbell video too.

Also, I have a cowbell - I found one when hiking out from the Castro Laboreiro in Portugal. I didn't find a bell-less cow though. Cows without bells are hard to find because, you know, they're silent. Like ninja cows.

Sorry, I'll be doing the rescue/safety/healthy eating/promotion of sexual health and awareness weekend. 

This is a really crazy idea but what about say renting a huge van with loads of seats and windows at the back??

I think you can get them in green.

In fact, here's a link to a website that I found: www.dublinminicoaches.com
they might have something. play it safe though cos this is a radical idea...
