Cool yeh I'll head with Helena! The sooner we head the better cos I'm not doing much on Friday! Woohoo can't wait!! I'll have the stove on for ya'll  

[Maryanne]

I was right, my boss IS a pain in the ass!!

 turns out im in UCD now on Friday, so ill be leaving from there, possibly around 4? maybe 5?

so if anyone would like to leave around then there is space (not trying to steal people off anyone else, but if this is someones preffered time then im ok with it....)

POACHER!
Nah that's fine, no judgment on anyone who jumps ship to definitely avoid an early morning on Saturday.

[Maryanne]

we could fit all these people in 2 cars, just saying

Actually, yeah you're right, the numbers have dropped off a bit, and your car is massive.
Hmm.

I have the car for the evening so I'm good to go tonight, maybe leaving around 8 depending on how quickly I get home, pack and eat.
I wouldn't mind a nap either...I'll just do that in the car

So my car will have Jer, Matt, Niall and I.
I'll drive Jer and myself to Niall's and he'll drive from there.
Matt, can you get to Niall's?

UCD Stars: Division 3 National Club Champions
gold medals all round!

We'll have to ring up the sports centre and ask for shelf space for our new trophy
We also got a Conti (fancy) polo ball, which will be christened in the new pool.

As for the ladies team, what a debut! Ellen, Marie and Kate were playing for their first time and did excellently, Rachel Molloy was our coach on the pitch and Helena was invaluable in goals and as another experienced presence. We played two the ex-Irish ladies squad who were a pleasure to play against and were happy to give tips during the match...and we even scored agaist them once!

GO TEAM!
