This is a page to record the many nicknames awarded to club members by fellow club members. Upon acquiring radios for the Maamturks Challenge 2022 numerous call signs have been adopted to be used in covert operations (the Sunday hikes).
Shirts - Unscrupulously aquired by Patrick, our wayward first year rep, who managed to consistently fail to finalize the process of creating the sacred yearly club t-shirts, causing much wailing and gnashing of teeth.
Double Cheese - Awarded to none other than Caolan Kelly-Delaney, after he ordered a double cheeseburger in the McDonald's in Strabane whilst the bus was leaving. In a full sprint Caolan made it to the bus, but sadly never collected his burger. Some say it is still sitting there, waiting for him....
The Big One - Conor. The Big One is a title won for Conor's suffering and strength on the 2022 trip to the Mournes. Here on the first night, himself and Callum Smith went into the local licence, and requested "The Big One", receiving a liter of Smirnoff. Together (but mostly Conor) they finished the bottle that night, leading to Conor treating the quiet hostel to the sounds of, what can only be described as throat singing, as the vodka left his body. But Conor was not defeated, and he got up the next morning to complete the hike and earning his title.
Bulldog - Each region has its own delights and delicacies, and with so many nationalities in the club there is always something new to be introduced to. Conor Gleeson, the clubs very own Minnesotan, brought his own family drink to us. Known as "bulldogs" this delight is comprised of Coca-Cola, Ice cream, Kahlua and Vodka (mostly vodka). Bulldogs have been made for generations by the Gleeson household, and most only be drunken in pints. It was the power of these drinks that gave Conor the true gift of the gab when he made his triumphant and iconic "Pineapple, Coconut" victory speech in Buncrana.
Creature- It is often hard to sum up an individual in one word, but no word suits David Hamilton any better. David's escapades on club trips and social nights range from devious to devlish, with always something new to shock and surprise those unaccustomed with his antics. Truly actions that could only be committed by an absolute "Creature".
The Kid- Although this is a university club, there is questions as to how Aodhan Gallagher snuck his way in. A child in all but legal definition, this young rover, despite his age, is very mature and can be described as a machine that turns pints of water and (un)cooked chicken into minutes and agendas.
Moe Jee, Joats Cheese, Joeseph Meeseph, Toga Joe, Joe Education, Mono Joe - Not many can claim to have a UGMC call sign, but Joe Mee can boast of having an every growing list of various different call signs and nicknames. For what the name lacks in syllables, it certainly makes up for in new ways of rearranging and combining. (Also the added beneift of their being great doubt as to this being his real name).
