Another option is gatwick to cork and drive from there - I've done the journey before and it's less than two hours from there. As I live near Gatwick this is the way I have generally gone as you can get from Gatwick to Cork on Ryan Air.

By the way, I'm registerd too  thumbs up

So where abouts is it then?!! the map only shows two streets and my knowlege of Irish streets isnt good enough to name the city from that... is it Dublin?


Waterford

Thought it was crystal clear, sorry

I'm a little confused! No change there but....
Is Big Slick Poker a poker club who is having a big competition in hotel to cope with numbers, or a group that organises events in different venues?!! If it also has a club is that in the same Waterford placey?
