Nitelink alternatives for 46N and 84N users (and some 7N folk too)

Finnegan's Bray departs from Cleary's on O'Connell St at 1AM and 3AM on Friday and Saturday nights. Used to do a Bank Holiday Sunday service as well although I'm not sure if they still do.
EDIT: They still do

Anyone who usually gets the Nitelink should consider this. Realistically, anyone getting the 7N usually to Monkstown, Dun Laoghaire, Sandycove, or Glenegeary can consider it as well as it's a relatively short walk / taxi journey from Foxrock church to any of these destinations.

€6 or €8 depending on how far you're going. More expensive than Nitelink but certainly better than feckin taxis

The Finnegans website is light on detail. I asked in another thread and I understand that they will stop virtually anywhere i.e. not at set locations such as the Nitelink which in the case of the 46N only picks up at Donnybrook Church and Stillorgan Park Hotel.

last time I got the Finnegans bus to Greystones it was 5am before I got home having been on a grand tour of every estate in Bray en route. The 84N in contrast takes 45 mins to get to Greystones.
