;D ;D hey ronan you missed a classic last nite during a beginners session in which miread was "THE BOSS." We had two swimmers paul can only explain 4 himself, but "THE BOSS" ,wahoo!!!! she was in the middle of the group outside the centre n TOE DEEP water TOE DEEEEEP ! demonstrating a rescue .Went over and with everybody lookin on it didnt happen , but the reaction was priceless she SWAM surfaced with a startled high pitched croak like something from kermit the frog. I was only there as an observer however i tried valiently 2 burst through the throng of onlookers and 'do nothing assistants' but alas i could'nt reach her in time. The look Priceless
miread's hero

How could you 'burst through a crowd of onlookers' when you were holding your sides laughing :-) Don't mind the old codger Mairead, it was just too dark for you to see the rescue.

yeah we have 2 canditates 4 swimmer of the month, what happened 2 paul i dont know just saw him swimming at the bottom of wrens and i'm sure he has a good excuse. I hav'nt debriefed mairead yet but the excuse should as expected be pitiful, but the 'look' will stay with me forever

ronan an update on "swimmers" just the one victim last nite Brendan was 'doin' the boxes and got his paddle " stuck" ? left it behind him , however I acted as spotter for niall and between us WE recovered it. Later on at wrens Mairead was heard doing her impression of little red kayaking hood lost in the undergrowth, she could only be heard howling HELLOooo !HELLOoooo! and for the second week in a row I came too her rescue this time sucessfully. I think the rockhopper call foom now on should be HELLOoooo! HELLOoooo! Still your ever faithfull reporter of the facts

You will notice how our 'faithful' reporter always emerges as a hero, yet he's never to be seen when the event is actually taking place. Yes, I did I did end up trying to do the last two boxes without a paddle. however, thanks to Mairead's keen eyesight and Niall's willingness to wade into the boxes, I got my beloved paddle back. No thanks to the 'faithful' reporter who, by the way, got pulled over sideways into the chicken run when trying to ENTER the boxes :-)

HellOOOoo ! HellOOOoo ! As the faithful Honest reporter of the facts it has come to my attention that a member of the club might try to defame your President, i just want to say as there were no witnesses it is akin to : does a falling tree make a noise if there is nobody around to hear it. So I know that you will all support me in my pending moment of need.
yours faithfully never afraid to report the facts
