Title: Christmas eve/eve eve paddle?
Post by: rog on December 16, 2010, 10:51:35
Hey guys, if this post apocolyptic weather doesn't hit as bad as its supposed to and wicklow doesn't become "impassable" as it always does after the lightest of showers, any1 up for a paddle next week either on friday (christmas eve), or thursday (christmas eve eve). Apparently this used to be some kind of tradition, but i've never been.

Who's up for it?

If you get a hyperthermia from paddling and didn't recover in time, then this is the fun (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q60ctwe9DiA) surely to be missed out on Christmas day.
