Paul, stay with Luke

Luke and Mary Aston
Rahona, Carrigaholt, nr. Kilrush, Co. Clare, Ireland

Phone 00353 (0)65 9058209
or direct to skipper 00353 (0)87 6367544



The whole operation is more viable for Luke if you stay with him as well.

Also, you won't have bad experiences with polyester sheets (as happened to donoghd)! :)

Paul, its about 4 and a half hours from dublin if you dont delay. Follow the main road to limerick, then ennis kilrush kilkee. Drive straight through the village and the guesthouse is signposted a mile from carrigaholt

If anyone fancies a few pints friday night, and doesn't plan on seeing them again about twenty minutes from the pier :D what about the long dock pub on friday night?

i'll book a table there for 6pm on the saturday so jd can make a speech.

what about using up the spare bait at the bridges of ross sunday morning?

No need to go into Ennis if your coming from Limerick.
Leave clarecastle on the N18 for 0.7ml
turn left onto R473 for 0.2ml
turn right onto R475 for 1.2ml
turn left onto N68 for 24ml this will get you near Kilrush

Hope it will be an enjoyable trip lads.
Regret I won't be able to make it.

Most chemists carry them Paul. I know its probably only psychological but I swear by those things.
