I am hoping to attend again but can't comit at the moment as my sons grandmother has just been diagnosed with Panchriatic Cancer Others I have known who have suffered from this have passed away in a matter of 2-4 months and needed a fair bit of care towards the end so I will just see how things pan out for now.

dont know if this helps but if you book using Stenaline here http://www.stenaline.co.uk/mcn with the MCN on the end you can get a 20% on all crossings. It only applies to motorbikes but every little helps.

The HSS takes just two hours to make the crossing and the conventional ferry tales three and a half hours Dave.

HSS leaves Fishguard at 11-30am arriving at 1-30 pm
Ferry leaves at 2-30pm arriving at 6pm.

The run from Rosslare to Aherlow is about 100 miles. I can send you a route for your GPS if you wish.

Return ferries leave Rosslare at;

Ferry leaves Rosslare at 9am arriving at 1-30pm
HSS leaves at 3pm which gets you to Fishguard for 5pm.

Nutt Travel is the most popular agent for the discerning Tosser crossing the Irish Sea. Their prices are usually best, so it may be worth your while to give them a ring.
