  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,472 ✭✭✭AdMMM


    Journalism and Motorsport. A few more interested me but I'll only join them if I see they're actually doing something for the year rather than using my €3 for a piss up :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 433 ✭✭Sparkles:)


    If you're interested in more than a piss up try kayaking

    four hours of pool sessions a week plus a river trip at least once a week, not to mention competitions and our captain has a jaccuzzi in her house ;)

    but if theres a thursday in the week we'll see you in Geoffs too!!!

    I joined

    Journalism (against my will!)
    Fianna Fail
    Kayaking

    may head to swimming and mountaineering over the year too =D

    If you head into the Clubs and Societies office (pretty much next to the game rooms/pool hall) on the Cork Rd Campus, they should have an up-to-date list of the current clubs and socieities and contact details for who to ask about joining.

    Sparkles didn't have to pay for Journalism though....

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,472 ✭✭✭AdMMM


    Back when I was running a society, we gave out goodie bags with over €50 of crap inside them! Has it really come to sweets and pens?

    Never heard of this one. Had a radio show in LIT for a few years, was a bit of craic, any idea if they're setting up a station in the college?

    Google a bull rodeo and imagine a shark instead of a bull! ;)

    i joined up for the golf club, and went to the first meeting.

    basically was told only people who have a single figure handicap will be able to play on the team. everyone else can only play on the informal meet up's.

    they dont offer any training / tips / advice for new players, and there was not a good attitude from the organisers of the golf club.

    Im going to ask for a refund, as a club / organisation that only want experienced players is complete and totally useless to most people.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 433 ✭✭Sparkles:)


    That's a very bad attitude, Complain!

    College clubs and soc's are about having a laugh, (just realised i missed swimming!) clubs that concentrate on nothing but finals or varsities is just unfair!
