Yeah I am going to delete the bullshit comments, check out what is already gone from this page.
Possible captions for the Anne-Marie/Kev photo: "Doh, wrong name" or "Jesus, not so tight" (Sorry Kev and Anne-Marie!) Anyway, if anyone is coming stateside for the summer and are going to be on the east coast, anywhere from New York to DC and are interested in doing some climbing then get in touch. I can't promise anything but if it can be arranged then there's loads to do! Mike.
Cormac,
I heard that you think Frank was Batman, well, I'm not so sure.
I remember reading some of his comments and saying, wow, "that is definately the way Diarmo speaks", or "that is definately the way Hugh speaks", I even thought that it was you for a while, or even Dave.
I heard that you traced a comment to the Boole one night when Diarmo was in Tarbert, so this might suggest that who-ever was Batman actually impersonated the way people in the club spoke so as to lead you, and everyone else, astray.
I still don't know, it is a mystery.
Mike.
Hugh, you are a genius. Who would have thought that it would be Rachel behind the mask... It has to be... Just admit it Rachel...
It's all lies, i tell ye, lies. No seriously it is. Batman is actually Jenny. She is trying to send everybody astray... (i hope she is not leading on Sunday...). Actually, i think TTR is Batman, just think about it. TT used "never" use this comment page until recently, since Batman put up his final comment, he has used it everyday nearly. (The plot thickens...) Mike
In doing so I managed to create a 'zipper
effect' from the ground up
thereby
ripping out two more pieces of pro.
...and there I was dangling 6 feet off the
ground,
by a free piece of
'bootie' that I got this summer just past.
I don't know who yous't to own that piece of
gear
but I'm a happy camper that I had
it in where I did :)
Rock on,
D.
There is not so much to say. I enjoyed my trip with the mounteneering club very much. It was great and Ireland is very beautyfull. I would like to make some more tours. I have some nice pictures I would like to give someone
Any-way, i hope every body has a brilliant time in Wales. Don't anybody get too carried away. Be sure to send me a post card, and don't forget to brush yere teeth and say yere prayers. Good luck and thanks, Mike
Sunday 26 some of us we are going back to Hungry Hill. We'll meet at 9:00 am in the cross. Note: Saturday night time will be moved one hour forward.
Yesterday we went to Hungry Hill. We had good weather, few rock climbing, laughs and good food and beer. We missed Rachel a lot, and some body else had to say: "leave your change clothes on the car", and "half seven back on the car" ;-) Cormac: yesterday in my way home I saw a big rock in the footpath do you like climb it this evening?
What is happening in the old college bar on Friday???? By the Jenny, you never told me 'bout that juicy bit of scandal this morning in the Boole. By the way did you open the e-mail??? All these Questions... but very few answers... Mike
I'd like to sign up for the Black valley too. No car though (damn). By the way, has anyone else got their Ailefroid leaflet yet (prices range from £25 to £200 depending on the course), and what's on Friday?!
Suggestion: At the AGM, Batman identifies himself.
Rachel, am i dead too??? Are there going to be photos of Wales on the website???

P.S. Jenny, what happened to my photos! Will
I ever see them
again!
Sometimes I find pictures on my films
that I did not take.
This time
the author(s) were not trying to hide the
identity.
Cormac!, you are not studying tonight, are you?.
Do I must remind you the fact that every year millions of people, who have been studying sometime, die forever?. And they can't drink anymore !!
I'm on for the climb on Sunday where-ever it is, but I've no car. If anyone wants to have some fun with some sites, the following are pretty goodhttp://www.rinkworks.com/dialect and

Bryan's favourite piece of
gear: "A nice big carrot" Not quite in its original
position. |
Rachel, I can't believe you aren't coming to Dingle. What kind of climber prefers books to map and compass?????? ;-) All that people who think they are not coming should think now that next Saturday they won't be able to study thinking in the fun they could have in Dingle. And what they will have instead?: A BOOK, probably without pictures .....
I bet it was Rachel that put in the last
comment. But anyway, Come on Cormac I am
sure everybody wants to hear the
scandal. I know about it, you know, he knows,
she knows, but she doesn't know that we
are refering to her, and a few others know. Anyway
you promised in such a religious place (???)
that you can't break it....
Does anybody else know what i am talking
about? I'd say Me, Cormac and 2 others.
Oh i am dead when i meet him...
See Everyone @ The AGM
vote 4 meWell Done The Beast
Congratulations to all the new committee members. i'm sure 2000/2001 will be a great year Eimear
