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:
Got off work 4.45,
went home,
got ready,
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!

I'd park in Setanta Place and get the DART from Pearse Street train station to Sandymount station:
