    Hey all. Seen a few pages ago that we'll be off on the 24th, 25th, and 26th. Is this for definite or just rumours? Been living in Cork for 9 years and trying to organise a few days together where I can move all my stuff back to the homestead; none of the weekends before Christmas suit. Plus the cost of bloody trains up and down to Templemore means the more in advance they can be booked, the better.

    My swimming shorts are black, but with a coloured stripe running down the side and almost knee length, I assume they'll be ok?

    Cool. Can you recall if they had treadmills/crosstrainers? Assume they have.

    I think they did but I'm not 100%. It was huge though so I'd be surprised if it didn't.

    It does. it's a decent gym but the opening hours took quite a hit without the recruits around.

    The tracksuit and the parade shoes cost around €160-€180. Cant remember what i payed but its around that figure. Thats the only thing you're required to spend money on.
