Well...even though you didn't make an appearance at our thing in Mullingar :cry: , I accept your apology and might try and make it to yours !
How much is it if I bring all my own gear and completely ignore any instruction you might give ? :wink:

Hi Gerry,

would love to go to this, but unfortunately its clashing with our club Open Day in Tullamore.

One of these years we will make it to the Cootehall weekend, it always sounds like a great event!

Enjoy! :D

Oh my God ... decisions decisions ...
Well Mr.Coonan, if you're not going to give me some sort of discount, I don't know if I'll be able to make it ..
Seriously though there's loads of stuff coming up that weekend. Evidentially, Tullamore are having their open day - very well kept secret that one - and my new club are doing a trip away, which I only found out about last night...AND it's my birthday weekend !!
So I guess I'll just show up somewhere and it'll be a surprise (even for me !)

Hi Gráinne,

First of all Happy Birthday in recognition of that great day when the good Lord ( with some help from two others) honoured our planet with your presence.

Gee... with a start like that you have to choose Coothall !!!. Our super Bulgarian chef will take special care of you.

See You Soon

Gerry
