    can't afford Dublin :(:(:( but Edinburgh is do-able

    it'd be great to meet some others, & Jackie & Marie again :)
  • I had a wee look at the flights Mardatha, but its about £70 return, although silversize found us a nice cheap b and b - but then it'll cost you to come down off your hill too! :(

    Aye, need to make it another time and give me plenty time to save up... I would happily live in Ireland, although I prefer the west coast.. My mum was irish.

    i'd love to meet up in edinburgh, may i suggest during dec or late november?

    edinburgh has such a lovely christmas village with lots of free activities for the kids and lots of cheaper options too lots of fun if you can resist the urge to buy all the food and treats that are also there

    i'm gonna be there anyway on the 14th and 15th of dec but i suspect that's a little too close to christmas for most people

    if anyone is interested in that time of year i could check when they have some of their earlier holiday free things to do i think they start around the last week of november

    Oh I'd love to come. I'd love to do Dublin as well but cant...pity cos I love Dublin! But Edinburgh - yes I'm in. As long as I can have Guinness... :)
    but, but ... the Edinburgh Guinness won't be like proper Dublin Guinness :(;)
  • Ah but any Guinness is better then no Guinness - unless it's Kenyan, Swan ;)
