    I'm in for it as well. I can bring sleeping bags and I might just buy a tent.

    If I can get a lift from the local train/bus station...?

    Ooooh cool, you want me to travel up to leitrim to you?

    Leitrim is back down towards the equator.
    And if you make me come to Sligo, I'll make you climb Knocknarea before we go.
    Yes I will!

    Apparantly argos are doing a 12euro two man tent!
    I'll PM ye all my number anyway and ye can text me back your ones, we'll get everyone sorted with lifts, the trains only 10 mins drive for the house so Podge and whoever else is drivin can do a few runs back and forth fromt he station if anyone ends up gettin out that way.
    I've a two man tent, 4 man if yer pissed enough that ye can mud wrestle for or somethin.

    Just out of curiousity how many people are planning on comin down fer this so far? Just wondering if I need to borrow a BBQ from the neighbours...

    I'm thinking I will come down to this, partly because I keep seeing pictures of cats everywhere!
    I also have a three person tent.
    I'd also need transportation from the bus station in Cork... I really don't know Cork at all!
    If that's okay :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,629 ✭✭✭raah!


    I think there will be lots of guide people around on the day. Guess now all we have to do is wait.

    Don't worry everyone'll be looked after, maybe some people from Dublin could try and travel together on the bus/train for company and convenience if possible!


  • Registered Users Posts: 537 ✭✭✭DonnieScribbles


    Well I'll probably be bussing it from Galway so I'll be all on my lonesome... I could bring my bike and cycle to your house but I'd probably get tired/lost and have to sleep under a tree...
    This is assuming it's definitely the weekend of the 21st!

    I'm getting all excited about this now :D it'll make the week before ("doing archiving" and being a "research assistant", which I think may turn into "write my thesis for me, please" :pac:) a bit more bearable

    Right i went to argos yesterday and bought a camping starter kit for 49e, 2 person tent, 2 sleeping bags and 2 camping mats...oh yeah 2 headlamp thingies incase you like to fall over:pac: Just need a large rucksack to hold it all now:P

    So the deal is, that we either get a lift or bus it from (Dub in my case) to Cork? and get lifts from there somehow?:)

  • Registered Users Posts: 21,730 ✭✭✭✭entropi


    I think there should be like a mini list of who's based where and who's driving from where, it can only help with the travel arrangements/pickups tbh;)


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 60,092 Mod ✭✭✭✭Tar.Aldarion


    Well get on it!

    Also maybe we should decide times and who can bring what and such, otherwise might end up with 20 salads, 1 single bottle of wine and one veggie skewer between us all :)

    I begged/pleaded/offered shameful sexual favours :O but now have all Saturday off. :pac:
