You can book on http://www.ryanair.com

meet you all  |

I can't make it to the meeting. I'm going to a collector's fair for cycling and football items.
Maybe next year if it's not at the same period. |

Dublin SATURDAY 16th October 2010
I had a meeting this morning with Goldcrest and Chrissybaby to organise a schedule and walking tour for the Dublin Meeting (Great Postcard Shops and
Craic etc) - Don't forget Dublin on 16th October and check out those Ryanair and Aer Lingus flights and for those in Wales the ferries.
