hey Colm, my sentiments exactly.. that piece of journalism looks like it was written by someone in 6th class?!

The tickets are still pricy all the same at 75euro a pop. Was hoping they would be 50euro or less. might skip it.

Funny story:

drove to Dublin,
realised I'd forgotten credit card
drove back to Naas
got credit card
drove back to Dublin
They didn't actually ask to see the credit card
Got in 5 mins after start

Happy days!
