Wanna swap your Donegal snow for the miserable wet that's bound to be in Offaly? We never get snow

Only until next week! I want it for Christmas, then it can feck off again. Even just the ice. I don't mind the snow so much, you can get around in that. The ice is what makes you stuck on the top of a big hill for weeks on end.

Lads, would ye stop talking about snow. We've a wedding the 29th and my parents have basically been having a sh*t attack over the possibility of snow since the date was chosen about a year ago....

Yeah, I used to get the Bus Eireann for UL to Dublin which took a pain staking 3hours long and then I had to wait for about 40mins to get the next bus to Dundalk.

I couldn't cope well on the bus for 3 hours, especially if there's no toilet. Trains FTW :cool:

No deal, I won't be finished until next Friday, so I won't have any snow

It would take me 3+ hours to get the train home, at least its 1.5 hours on the bus and then 30 min drive. Which isn't that great either considering that it only takes like 1 hr 20 mins to drive all the way..

When do Spring semester timetables come out? Presume it'll be around January?

Snow is awful stuff. The novelty wore off about 10 years ago for me... it's just cold and miserable


On a positive note, easy exam today (although if i get too cocky, I'll undoubtedly be disappointed).

I like snow, but only if I don't have anywhere to go. We rarely get it! There was some snow here this morning but it's all gone and there doesn't seem to be any sign of more appearing.:(

In my exam today I spotted a poster on the wall saying the dates when students can register for the repeat exams... Don't get too, ahead of yourself now UL! :P

Stables and Sports Bar I'm sure. The shop should be open for a while as well.

I may have thought today was Saturday temporarily and was wondering why you said Stables and the shop...

Thinking I'd have a bit of a lie in today so stuck in earplugs cause I knew there'd be building work. Of course, this morning would be the morning they have a tractor, a digger, a roller and a chainsaw all right outside my window, making the ear plugs useless... Getting fairly sick of it now...

It's only a laugh, sure I've had people from LIT call me a posh wanker for going to UL.

No matter where you go, you'll always have two colleges/schools bashing each other. Nothing serious, just a little bit of craic

Are you in the library? If so, you should be able to go to ITD and get one? I usually have a spare one in my bag, but of course I took that out a few days ago...

Can't say I've had the pleasure of being in there that late. I think 12 was the latest I've ever been in there

Completely blanked on a formula in my exam today.

Toting up the marks afterwards, it's that cockup that'll keep me out of the A band. The slim chance I had of a 1.1 at the beginning of the year go bye-bye!

Preparing myself for a looong study session in the library tonight!
