April 27^th - New Online Red Book
The Online Red Book has been updated and overhauled and is now running on shiny new software called PHPBB. People's old passwords will still work, but avatars from the old forum are gone for now. I'll hopefully get around to putting up some new ones in the coming weeks. Any problems contact folk@skynet.ie.

The last ever Spanish Point weekend in Baita Bosco will take place between January 31^st and February 2^nd 2003. The cost will be €20 to cover food. Also, the hostel is available from Thursday night until Monday night, so if people need somewhere to stay when they are flying in or out, the hostel will be available. Contact Dónal O'Brien, Helen Hennessy, or PJ Somers if you are interested.

On a seperate note, practise will be on as normal during the exams, so if you need somewhere to come and relieve the stress, you are more than welcome to come along. As always, we meet in the Salesian Hostel at 8:00pm, or the Sports Bar at about 9:30pm. We will be singing at Mass in the Salesian Church again from this Sunday coming (January 5^th).

Also, we will be singing at the annual Memorial Mass for deceased staff and students of the University this coming Sunday (Nov 10^th). This Mass will be attended by a number of senior faculty from the college, including Dr. Roger Downer, President of the University. Anyone who can make is welcome to come and sing with us - we would ask that you come along to our practise tonight if you can.

The first weekend of the year in Spanish Point, is taking place this coming weekend (11 - 13 October) We'll be leaving Limerick some time on Friday evening, and will be back around 6pm on Sunday. Spanish Point (in case you missed this part before!) is a small village on the west coast of Ireland, and we go up there twice a semester, stay in a hostel, have a laugh, have a session (as in sing and play music!) each night in one of the local pubs, and do a bit of sightseeing - hoping to get in the Cliffs of Moher again this year! Cost should be 25euro (at most 30), which includes food, transport and accommodation! If people are interested (since unfortunately places are limited) could they get back to me on e-mail before or on Wednesday so that I can sort things out!! - Maeve
