bit of general help pls

SoundProof

Been quite awhile since I last lived in Ireland (just a few miles south of Cork) and plan to move back in the next 3-6 months and am looking for some info on Cork please. Should explain I am Swedish and live in the UK, but moving back to Ireland this time will include my wife and child too, so I'm a bit out of touch as to what is what in Cork these days.

What areas should I be looking for when getting a flat in "Cork"?

What areas should I stay away from?

I have an adsl 4mbit connection with unlimited download for ~£25 a month and wonder if there's anything close to this in Cork (solid/good speed and if not unlimited, then at least 30 gig download a month) ?

What "good" secondary schools are there in Cork (and bad) ?



A lot is unknown at this point and I am sorry having to have asked these general questions, but I have been unable to pick up this info via the net so far and thought perhaps it was time to just check here instead.


TY in advance!!!

I've had it for about 5 months now, was cut off for about 2 weeks but at 35 euro / month inc line rental is the cheapest and best broadband there is in the country. Consistantly get 324kbps off usenet
