Post by: Douchier on August 31, 2009, 13:57:13

Anyone up for a bit of paddling over the next few days? This evening even if things are working?

Dunno, it's being saying that for a while - having one large release from golden falls and having mulltiple small ones from leixlip. Then again, it's been raining a lot and the website lies. Personally I'd prefer Wicklow, haven't been down that way in a while.

Anyone up for doing anything in the morning? I'm guessing it's when the water levels will be best too.

I really wish you were more committed to mine! Get a driving license, car, insurance and bring me paddling :P

I've already done all of the above for you  ;D

i'll be around tomorrow also once I manage to get hold of my gear.   Anyone know what the annamoe levels are like?

So it looks like sluice in the morning (2megs release till 2pm), or maybe wicklow in the evening.    Or both could always happen?

Anyone up for sluice?

I'm sorry Kyle, I never realised how much I take you for granted... I'm working on all those things but I'm not there yet, please don't give up on me until that day arrives. In the mean time, how would you like a piggy-back to wicklow? Also, I owe you a tenner.

I'm well up for going to Wicklow, If I know in time - I might have to seitch a few things around.

It should be raining over the next few days too though! Watch this space - or more reliably, the weather reports/

sounds good.  just to note though, i was in ucd this morn to pick up some of my gear and all the car parks seemed very full - orientation and all so might be difficult to leave a car there.
