I am visiting Ireland Late October
As the subject says, from the 21st to 27th October I will be in Ireland for a short holiday. I will be heading across from Hollyhead to Dublin where I will be for a few days and then will be heading through the country to Rosslare where I will be catching the Ferry back home to Wales.

Any Irish members fancy meeting up fora beer or maybe hit a couple of lanes?

Cheers,
Glyn Sheep

Would be delighted to buy you a pint or two if you will be near the Portlaoise area (midlands). Unfortunately will not be able to stray too far from home as SWMBO will be in Oz from 13th to 29th and I have to mind the dog. Will PM coordinates nearer the time if you can make it.

Hey there Cannonball,

Thanks for the quick response, I notice it isn't very far away from Dublin. I have now booked all the ferries so will deffo be around, will just have to work out my free days, and then will get back to you closer to the time... do you guys do any meets/ green lanes?

Probably I also will be in Ireland in October, but nothing have been planed yet...
It is a good period to came there or we will stay all the days under the rain?? Very Happy

Dublin will be the major place we will stay, also because we want to visit Guinness storehouse!! Laughing Laughing

I'm thinking to come with my 110 and sleep in the Maggiolina, are there camping or area where you can stay in the night? Matteo

Anytime of the year is ok. October could be sunny/warm/wet/windy/cool! Not trying to put you off it's just our changeable Irish weather. If you are staying in the Dublin area there is a good camp site about 5km south of the city centre with great bus/Luas light rail links into town to save you the hassle of driving and parking. It also gives you the chance to sink a few pints without having to be concernrd with the boys in blue!

Enjoy your stay
