Ambitions

To drag my fat arse up a few good problems
avoid any injuries
avoid being properly sandbagged

Fears

Rain
Hangovers
Ireland losing to the French.

I'm reasonably worried about the weather, not too bothered personally but it will be disappointing for people to travel a long way and get no climbing done. I'm sure we will get something done...

[cofe]

hot dog jumping frog. ireland really is the bomb. fucking quality problems in amazing places with loads of mad for it irish fellas everywhere. and still tonnes to go at.

rated i big time and i reckon most people got loads done. loads of people around so made for a great, really friendly atmosphere.

big thanks to dave flanagan for sorting it out and to the irish boys and girls for being very welcoming hosts. might be worth checking www.beardownproductions.co.uk in a week or two...

[Pantontino]

A great trip with excellent company, riotous partying and superb dry cold weather.

I'd like to thank Dave and Mike and all the friendly locals who made us feel so at home again, Sloper for his whisky and snuff, Cofe and Scouse for their spotting skills (only joking...I still can't walk properly though!), Harvey for his strange spitting dream and the big fella who was singing all the amazing folk songs in the front room of the hut on Saturday night.

Other than surviving the mother of all hangovers on Saturday morning a great trip, some good problems and some better drinking, it was almost like being 21 again.

Many thanks to Dave Flanagan.

[Dave Flanagan]

Thanks to everyone who came I hope it was worth the effort. We were blessed with the weather once again.  The drinking on Friday night was my personal highlight. The video of Conor going down the slab should be on the site soon.
