I've still got those two tickets for anyone who wants them. They're not standing tickets - they're circle seats, row D, so not too bad.

PM me if you want them - first come first served.

I could be up for a before-party: I'm arriving in Dublin at 5.30 AM and so I'll have some time to kill before the hotel staff let me in my room. Anyone fancy a beer watching the sunrise in the port? :lol:

If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

Ryanair and Aer Lingus do early morning or afternoon flights for £25 (plus fees for card booking and check-in baggage).

I used www.raileasy.co.uk and bought my London-Dublin and Dublin-London tickets (including train and ferry) for about £70 altogether, I don't know about Manchester though but maybe you can try the search option there.

Wise words! I remember a particularly horrible November crossing... going in the other direction from Dublin to see the Sisters in Wembly! (Jesus, was that really 21 years ago?!!)

paint it black and bangles please explain what you mean because you got me worried, what do you mean, that the ferries in November can get seriously delayed or cancelled, or what? :?
Or just a rough weather which can make the crossing a bit unpleasant?

I think they just mean the rough weather. :urff:

hi emma, sorry for the unneccessary stress! I just meant it was a bit rough. And to be honest i'm sure that may have been made worse by drink! I've also done numerous other winter crossings that have been grand!

Ah, good, thanks. I don't mind rough weather, as long as they don't cancel the ferries everything's allright. :D I was afraid that you meant the sea could freeze over or something, and then I would have to quickly think about the reason why I'm travelling to release the heat from my heart to melt the ice. ;D But if I thought about it for too long it could set the entire sea on fire, and then what. :? ;D

Edit: I've just realised what I see in the top left corner: "There are 36 days remaining until the next Sisters gig (Dublin)". Only 36 days, that's not long! 8)

Cannot go to this one, but I actually liked the Temple Bar district very much when we were there, the venue seems to be there too and there were lots of cheap places to eat and sleep, and lots of spare beds/rooms even in the evening we stayed there! Don't remember the name of the hostel, don't expect luxuary :wink:
I found Dublin and Ireland generally slightly cheaper and slightly more "relaxed" compared to the UK, or maybe we were just lucky.

Dublin Contemporary is still on in November for anyone interested in visual art, especially that with a political slant. Though it does cost 15 euro to get in! :eek:
