Thanks Nicole, are you sure? I very very rarely use the train, hardly ever, i always get the bus, but there is no bus to Thurles cos its a shithole in the middle of nowhere but i want to stop there to do something, then travel on to cork. I thought maybe i might be told to get to thurles and then when i get there i have to sort it out with them, and then i'm told i'll have to pay a f*ckin fortune to get where i want to go
