They're transferring money from the bank, it's pretty standard AFAIK to have the army defending the money.

It has begun.

:eek:

allandanyways

i hate thinking about postgrad stuff it's so confusing hence why I'm trying to get my head around it NOW instead of later... aaaaaaargh :mad:

Michellenman

Fair play for not leaving it until the last second... I always do that even though it wrecks my own head.

allandanyways

i have another year left in all fairness, this brings my organisation obsession to a scary new level, not that it's helping me at all. NUIG why must you be so vague???

Teabag!

Its a cash in transit (CIT) escort, they are pretty common, its part of the army's Aid To the Civil Power (ATCP) role, they have been goin on for ages,

i'm not too sure on when they started but the killing of Gerry Mccabe, made them a big necessity,

the really stupid thing is that it is only in the last 2 or so years that banks have had to pay the cost of these escorts......

WINRAWR. I truly wish I could claim this, but I cant.

Teabag!

on a lighter note what does winrawr stand for?????

PrivateEye

Thank god for the internet:

WINRAWR.

Originates from the word 'Winrar'

1)Winrar is an old outdated program made at least 100 years ago. It's main use is to keep porn from being seen by Script kiddies moms.

2)Someone/Something who wins. The polar opposite of fail.

She's there?! Are they do appointments or can you just walk in? I presume it's not as busy cause the majority of people aren't in Maynooth. Has the doctor service been open all summer?

Rozabeez

The doctor isn't there, just walked into the nurse and she got the chemist to give me an emergency prescription instead of having to go to the doctor.

Is the pool open, by any chance?

Michellenman

Surely is. Been packed apparently though.

God, in 12 hours I sit my first written repeat out of 7.

My nerves were shot today, and I'm pretty sure I should've had medical attention at one point with my chest (Heart palpations: seriously, if it happens again tomorrow, I will go to the Dr) but I think I'll be OK.

Take it easy tonight, have an early one. Chill out, it'll be grand. Best of luck.

Tee hee, I spotted you! I think...

Good Luck
to everyone doing repeats!

i had planned on adding a lolcat but can't find one to suit the occasion and also figured banquo has the number on lolcats so probably safest to stick with fancy colours

Hello new internet pals (too soon?)
I go to Maynooth. This place looks a bit fun... Good luck repeaters!

PrivateEye

I'm not doing repeats, but deemed that Thanksworthy due to its colourfull nature and the fact it made me smile.

If you're doing repeats: You the (wo)man, and grab 'em by the balls.

Hello new internet pals

Sup.

You can probably spot us around college, we kind of have 'a look' about us.
