    I'll hopefully be going to Mary I to do primary teaching, Monday permitting. I got 480, so as long as the points don't go up too much I should be ok. When does the college year start for 1st years actually?

    I rang today. They said they are working on it this week. A few weeks back they said you can expect it to stay very much the same though.

    There's a decent weights room in Tailteann (PE building). It's small but it's well equipped. A good variety of machines and weights, several tread-mills and exercise bikes, a rowing machine.

    One more bench and one more bar for dead-lifting/squatting. Anything else is just for show. :P
