Man up lads! Its all a bit of craic at the end of the day.

You get a hell of a lot less slagging if you just do your booties and swimmer files.

Date: 29 of December 2015
shitty Excuse: I was wrecked from the night before and it was my birthday so I fecked up to give the drysuit its first good test and let the flesk give me a birthday beating.
Person requiring rescue drinks: I swam in to a eddie, but Keyes got my boat and Mac stern carried me across the river.

Emotional Issues: first swim since Wales last January it was a bit of a beating.

Bootie beer: will do it on new years eve in Kerry.

I believe Josh Morris has a few bootie beers and swimmer files, some people still from the Alps, a few other people too from kerry,

Location: Owenreagh, black valley, Kerry

Date: One of those blurry Kerry New Years days.

Shitty Excuse: Completely underestimated how hard I was going to smack the rock.

Persons requiring rescue drinks: Everyone!! Jack and Mac for their rope work. Keyes for hoping on the rock and helping me out. Kevin Cahill for pulling my boat and paddle in. A rescue slab of Heineken was bought to say thanks!

Was happy to be paddling with a solid crew that day!

Emotional issues: Fair loved that bit of excitement! Just at the top of the rapid I was thinking the day was going a bit stale. A solid pinning livened everyone up!

Bootie: No thank you. Although a fŭck up funnel may have to be done.

Swim 2
Name: Eoghan
Location: Gearmeehan, Black valley

shitty Excuse: Well. There was this tiny, really not a problem for anyone drop. But I rose to the occasion and didn't boof in the slightest and then I was swimming all of a sudden.
Person requiring rescue drinks: Mark, Derv, Brian (I think....)
Emotional Issues: I got over previous anxieties from the castleconnel and was getting a little too confident for my own good. If anything this swim was good for me.......
Bootie beer: I went for a two for one... My booties are really bad....
