Title: SATURDAY TRIP 29/1/10

OMFGINGCOPTERT-CANYON

I can't believe it's kayaking cause it's a joke. It ain't kayaking until you're swimming! You know what that means!! It's SATURDAY TRIP TIME.The place is un-disclosed so you know it's gonna be awesome.

- Sign up on this topic that you want to go, put your FULL NAME down.

- Wait till Friday in anticipation so awesomeness, Oh and also come to the POOL SESSION ON Thursday!

- get all your gear ready for the Saturday trip!! We provide everything you need, basically but you do need to bring some stuff, much like the stuff as follows;

- Change of clothes for after the river trip, essential!!

- Money for the trip, it costs 10 euros for the trip, that includes transport, gear, instructor, fun etc!!

- Thermals/ any gear which would be good, so if you've got any gear such as booties, wetsuits etc then bring them!! Thermals are essential! Anything to wear under the wetsuit is great but not cotton, anything that has 'ester' at the end is perfect!!

- Food, bring some food for after the trip, it really does help and I want to eat something.

- and please sign up by thursday to give us an idea of numbers...

- get your pretty behind to the boathouse at 10 o the clock on Saturday morning, I don't want to hear no bull about being hung-over or sick, paddling cures all of them, seriously, you only live three times so you better come!!

Also, please let us know if your are stalling it down for intervarsities, it's gonna be so damn awesome.

I think that's it, if you have any question get in contact with anyone from the committee, we are here to help.

I love you,
Ley-Ley

Can have what you're having? Whatever world you're in can I visit for a while and thread the light pink flamingo on the boardwalks of your mind?

It's just the way I'm sitting.... It really does depend on three factors, 1: Have I done enough work to justify a day off, 2: Has it been raining enough to bring up wicklow 3: Can I be bothered to get my ass in gear on thurday to back all my gear so when i drive to dublin on friday morning I can have the choice of paddling or hiking weather dependent so long as part one has been achieved.

Ok, I haven't been on the board in aaaages, and I've clearly been missing out; Leighton, that was one of the most insane posts I've seen. Brilliant, though.  afro.gif

Unfortunately, I won't be in the country for the trip, but it sounds amazing, if a little incoherent.

Woop! Sounds great!

Also, if you've never been out with us before, please do come to the pool session on Thursday (meeting outside Trinity at 18:30) you'll get to meet everyone, make friends, come out to the pub, and take your first tentative steps and obligatory capsize into kayaking in a warm indoor pool!

Alright, count me in! Though this means I have a heck of a lot to do in order to join.

Oh and Thursday I am in, too  :)

See you around, Livia

P.S. if anyone has a spare pair of neopren socks (size eu 36/ uk 3.5; can also be bigger) for me, that'll be amazing. Thank you!

Hey Emma!
Just to let you know, if Grace has never been out with us before bringing her to the pool would be a great idea, just so she can learn a few basics indoors! You remember doing a swim test and a capsize drill yourself? Much nicer in a pool...

Probably shouldn't come (I should probably learn something at some point) but I'll hopefully make it out (I keep forgetting what day it is :blank: ) :D

Can't come Thursday though, other plans...

Oh yeah, Darina Müller

I won't be up tomorrow but will be around on saturday, have decided to have a days paddling. Have you decided the location yet because as much as I love the boyne and enjoy the liffey, I want to paddle a river in wicklow and from the weather it's been raining a little bit down there, it will be cold but it's going to be cold everywhere.
Title: Re: SATURDAY TRIP 29/1/10
Post by: Eoghan on January 27, 2011, 10:46:31
well since wicklow is almost certainly very low and we have a big group and potentially new people it will probably be the liffey.

Unless you find out that wicklow is up...let us know and we may swing that way (depending on numbers, and experience as well)

i'm not sure what the bus is doing? do we have it for the day?
Title: Re: SATURDAY TRIP 29/1/10
Post by: Ley-Ley on January 27, 2011, 11:00:39
No, if you want to go somewhere I have to know when booking the bus. So it's gonna be the Liffey.
Title: Re: SATURDAY TRIP 29/1/10
Post by: kmck on January 27, 2011, 11:06:00
I will be along, it helps to know so I can choose the boat and then decide how much termals to bring along. Still might bring the big boy boat for my footsises.
