fine by me

fŭck it I'll just bring my tent. Less hassle.

Wierd tho, you remember seeing it? I thought Emers post saying she wanted a bed too came right after mine.

I think you might have posted on the organisation thread we had on the committee forum Keyes, if you decide on sleeping on the floor I have no problem with that

Ah yes, that's the one. Well that explains it. fŭck sake, I thought I was going nuts, I knew I remembered typing out that post. I even looked through the moderation log to see if someone had deleted it.

Keyes I can try and find out is there space for you in the house I'll be in if you want? It's a group from Galway in it.

Ok if Donie will only take another 4 then it's probably cheaper to bring Eileen. Bags a spot! ...after everyone who actually owns a share obviously <br/>

You bagsed a space in the other thread Keyes

Does it count having not bagsed it on the public thread? I don't know! The jurys out!

My preference is a foam finger face off between Keyes and Jemma. No mercy rules.

Thumb war until death last person standing may have the last spot

You're going down Gemma!




...nah fŭck it, I'll just pack my tent. It just means I don't have to inhale Farrel's farts all night.

...there's two Farrels in the van, you're all going to be begging to join me in the tent by Saturday morning!

Is everyone happy with that? Anybody that requests a switch please do so ASAP otherwise you will miss out!

Hey potato Farrell, you know it'll take you about 6 hours to get up?

My advice....

Leave earlier
Or

Get that bunch of ssssshhhhhhlllluuuuurrrrrkkkkkksss to bring food and beer and not expect any stops anywhere. They can bring a bottle or piss their pants!

Hey Jim Jam Canned Balls!

Unfortunately cant leave much earlier because most of us will be working till 4/5 pm!

SO we will just hit the road and hope for the best!

so...feeeeeekksss...pack a picnic

Bags the new raptor

Ok so I'm sort of stuck for a way to get my paddling kit to UL, would anyone be able to spin out to my place in the sprinter tomorrow afternoon to pick it up? Or would I be able to drive it out, even though I havn't submitted this year's documents yet? Gav?
