[fatboyfat7]

Dates people?!? Oh and just to clarify in advance, its unlikely I'll be in the FTO. If it doesnt come it means Ive made as many meets without the FTO as I have with!

[Dave]

Dates would be handy alright! I can't do the 27th/28th....

[optical illusion]

Right, how does December 5th&6th sound?

[gfalls]

Right, how does December 5th&6th sound?

Alright with me..!

[TopCat]

Right, how does December 5th&6th sound?

Good for me.

[optical illusion]

Good for me too, obviously

Anyone else?

[Bernard]

Yup, fine here too.

so just a few questions.

who's organising this ?
whereabouts would it be ?
what dates are settled ?
what activities would there be ?

[optical illusion]

Right, can we officially set the date as 4th and 5th so that people can start booking time off? The majority seem to be in favour of these dates.

I think anything too outdoorsy at that time of the year will prob be a bad idea.

Let's start throwing out some locations, activity, accommodation etc ideas... anyone want to volunteer to arrange this?

How about the Ring? Haha, only kidding

[optical illusion]

Oh and Keenan - of course you are invited, meets are the best way to get to know everyone here. If it was anything like the last session in Lahinch it was legendary - there was lesbian action, cameras disguised as hairdryers and all

[Bernard]

I thought we were karting? Hopefully in the rain

[optical illusion]

I suppose I'm the only person that has a problem with heat regulation then

That and I haven't karted since the 'incident' *shudder*

[gfalls]

I thought we were karting? Hopefully in the rain

[colm_mcm]

December sounds good for me, just back from holidays then

[Johnk]

Not going to make this 1 Elaine can not get the weekend off work + Christmas party weekend more than likely Sorry all

[gfalls]

Any updates on this...???

[colm_mcm]

Can we get agreement on location and activity?

[TopCat]

Karting has been suggested and I'd be up for that. Pallas Karting would be kinda central. Just a suggestion?

[Muad_dib77]

I'll temp fate and sign up...

Just a by-the-by I think the karting in Newry is Indoors there's more than a few scenic routes about..and there's a few places to stay overnight as well..

[Dave]

Outdoor karting in the rain is great craic too, especially if the karts are decent, can get a decent drift going!!

I may actually have to be a provisional on this one, dates don't really suit, but I'll leave the name up for the time being!

[keenan]

cheers !!! the 4 , 5 december is a good date ... and anywhere is good for me !!!

[Mustang]

Depending on location and work Chritmas parties etc.

IIRC the karts in Kiltorcan run on lpg -looks like their website is down. Only been there once -seemed ok -can't reme,ber what the pace of teh karts was like
Anyone been to extreme karting http://www.xtremekarting.ie/ near Roscrea? Realatively central location, altough I'm not sure where we'd overnight.

Newry wouldn't be such a bad idea -fill teh boot with reasonabley priced booze fro Christmas while North of the border
Could be a bit hectic with all the other republic traffic up there at the same craic.
