Prologue

It's late March. The Dublin Gliding Club are facing a week of being locked out of their airfield in July when the Oxegen music festival takes over next door. It can't happen! The Dublin club will not be stopped! Kevin somehow convinces Birr airfield to host them for the week of the 10-19th July, and decides that a bit of cross-community is in order, inviting the Ulster Gliding club along too. Owen and Gary, (the brutes) are instantly excited at the prospect of a new soaring area and new female specimens, and set to on convincing others to join them. Camping, gliding, a beverage or two, what could be better?! A problem is quickly identified in the lack of showering facilities, but this doesn't stop the Queen's club inviting themselves, and eight foolish students sign up speedily, led on by David Lisk. Jay, Bob and Rick also get roped into proceedings, and being slightly more hygiene-conscious, arrange to bring a caravan complete with a shower down with them. Organisation is complete at the Northern end of things- what will the Dubliners have in store for us?
