    Hey all, im doing a sponsered surf on Christmass day in Rocky Bay, Cork. (no wetsuit) If anyone would like to join me in the surf or in fundraising please pm me. Or if you just want to watch a man get hypothermia please come along between 1pm and 2pm.
    All donations and sponsers will be greatly appreciated or follow the link to my fundraising page. http://www.mycharity.ie/event/brian_keohanes_event/
    Its in aid of CARI (Children at Risk in Ireland) charity,a very worthy cause.
    Thanks Brian.

    No every1 is welcome to join the surf,the more the merrier and they can support there own charity if they want.
    Yes no wetsuit,its board shorts only, most of us surf sept to april so it would be a cop out with them,its the same as a christmass day swim but a surf.
    Ill be posting a map of rocky bay for all to come along
    Cheers for the intrest Shane:)

    :pac:....................:eek:

    Sorry for not putting this up earlier. :cool:

    The more support the better and please if you want to sponser me or donate for the charity I have a website set up http://www.mycharity.ie/event/brian_keohanes_event/
    Its without a wetsuit so its gotta be worth it to donate.
    Please support if you can.

    Bugger, i live only 2mins away from rocky bay, would have come down with my board if i'd realised! Instead was at a christmas swim just around the corner in Roberts Cove.
