So drivers post up:
Going, Leaving, Where from, How many people spaces, how many boat spaces and you're contact number :)
People looking for lifts, it is up to you to get onto the driver and guarantee that you have a lift! just because you have posted here that you want the lift you aren't guaranteed it! Anyone getting a lift off of someone else should cover a fair share of the petrol costs, this is to be organised with the driver! (remember that heavy cars, with loads of people, bags and boats use up petrol/deisel!)
Club boats can be brought down on the club trailer. This is not an option for private boats as the trailer will be leaving Dublin on the last day of Andy Js exams and won't be returning till the first day of semester two!

I'll hopefully be leaving from Dublin airport around 19.00 on the 30th, if my flight arrives on time. :D
Going to kerry via the M7.
I envisage returning to Dundalk either the 2nd or 3rd, via Adare - Limerick (M7) - Dublin - Drogheda (M1).
Can pick up/ drop off people if they don't live too far out of the way or if they can arrange to be picked up / dropped off at some location not too far out of the way.
I will not be able to take my own boat, because I don't want to leave it on the roof at the airport. However, I can take the roofracks if someone needs pickup on the way down. That leaves 3 potential boat spaces, for that length of journey.
Preferably though, I'd rather not have to deal with boats on the way down, as I'll be late enough leaving as it is!
pm on this/facebook if necessary
-
I'll be driving from Enfield to Kilcloon (both Meath) and then to UCD the morning of the 27th. Can take 2 more boats and 1 more person. 2 If we're really stuck but should be okay. Will be leaving on the last day.

All of this is subject to change and also UCC, I can be contacted nearer the time on oh8sex 3four7neuf8fyffe7, I probably won't be on the forum much, so if you don't speak to me you won't have a spot!

Leaving from Cork at stupid o'clock is a little more reasonable than stupid o'clock from Dublin :D
-
1 boat and 1 person space left.

I have one person space also, holler at me if you want me.
-
Looking for a lift on the 30th from Glenbeigh to Killarney... (very) early in the morning (6:30ish am)
Anybody could help me...?
-
If all else fails you can get a taxi to Killarney, I got one from kilorglan to Killarney and it was reasonable. I'm sure if you ask nicely(cake) I could be convinced to not drink on the 29th and drop you off
-
I'll ask you cakely then! but please promise you will eat the cake after I left... (so you can't change your mind!) :P
of course I can get a taxi if all else fails (eg : burnt cake)
-
I'm not drinking on the 29th so I could do it either!

Aisling, are you going to Cork? We might be travel buddies as my train is at 07:36 too :D

No Beb I'm going to Dublin :( that's so sad thought I might have company! :(

Awh really that would be great! Thanks Diarmuid :)

Brief update:
Will not be driving down late on the 30th due to the bad weather and the fact that I'll most likely be knackered anyway. I'll probably also need to charge the battery and other jobs.
My mission is to get to Kerry somestage on New Years eve.
