Over, around and through

Aimman

You have to get over Oisin, you'll be kicking yourself on the day if you're sitting in Ireland.

Did you book through an agent or directly with the airline? They have to be able to help you out somehow. Or just take the option to chance the name on DoNotHop's tickets. If you didnt book them originally, then you shouldn't be out of pocket anyway.

Oisin u have to go over...uve put too much work in and like Paul I've a spare flight that ur welcome to...Head up and just do it !!!!

Yep Oisin we need you over there. there'll be no craic without you on the drinking session :pac:. Take one of the flights back on the monday morning. I'm pretty sure it only costs €50 to change the name on the flights with ryanair (just checked and it is €25 each way http://www.ryanair.com/en/terms-and-conditions#regulations-flightandnamechanges)

that's less than you would have been paying originally anyway and a lot less than you'll lose on your hotel and race entry fee. Come On bud!!

I rang 3v and i dint book flights with them and nothing on my laser card statement either. I remember booking them but thought i must be thinking about other flights. One last time i rang Aerlingus and inquired. The girl yesterday asked me who i was flying with and i said alone so she said no one of that name. The girl today said who else is in my group. I said no one as i booked on my own. She said there is a frank mc dermott on the flight but hes not booked in alone.
I didnt book them my mate ken did thats why i have no record of it and thats why i got no e-mail, he got it.

Jesus Christ Frank....

And here we all are with hopes that you will take us round the course for a 3.10 effort.

You know the race is Sunday now, not Saturday!!

Bet you had a right sweat on last night.

Good news anyway. See you over there

Oisin11178

Yeah i was sweating in the house last night. Did what i always do when im stressed, eat my own body weight in grub:D
Not sure about the flight times, i know its about about 12 saturday late morning and monday evening coming back.
I was talking to ken on the blower last night and he didnt remember either. Of course i remember now i even gave him the cash for the flights.
Good to get this sort of bad **** out of the way.
Its 3.10 or finish, if i dont get 3.10 you will see me explode in ireland. Im not slowing down unless i drop:D

menoscemo

You're coming back with me so. Behave well and i might even drop you to your house from the Airport.

hot to trot

Thanks Crunchie for that.
All this stress can be channelled into your sub 3;05 now. I rekcon with all that adrenaline flowing you are good to chop off a few more minutes.!;)
Glad it is all sorted. YOu got a place to stay ???:rolleyes:

Glad to hear it worked out. Reading through this MY stress levels were peaking. Now I'm checking my flight reservation - you've kicked my OCD into overdrive ! Still there is always one drama per trip - you've got yours out of the way.

Hope ken is fit for limerick, don't want to have to drag an extra one round to 4 hrs :pac:

Ran on a niggle, went the physio 5 times and he said he would be grand but hes not There is still a slim chance but its not likely.
