    If it was a one day return you need to buy a new one

    This seems to suggest that there's nothing you can do, as the date has already passed.

    Cheers, I read that earlier, Was hoping inspectors may let it go but I guess rules are rules

    Ask at the ticket office if the ticket can be endorsed for tomorrows date. No harm in asking, but no guarantee. You may have to pay the difference in the fares.

    If you can't use it, go to the information desk and see about getting a refund. Last summer I bought a ticket to go the Tall Ships shenanigans in Waterford, but couldn't go due to illness. The next day I told my sad tale of woe to the nice man at the desk in Connolly Station. He had me fill out a form, and about a week later I got a voucher in the mail for the value of my ticket.
