For anyone looking to park at Dublin Airport next weekend - they are offering 3 days for the price of 2 in the short term car park.

I just booked Friday morning – Monday morning (it gives you the extra time) for €19.90.

Bit of a bargain.

"French by Birth, Irish by the Grace of Rugby"

Chapeau Sandrine :happy clapper:

You're not my wife under a pseudo by any chance :lol:

Like you she is 100% French but is known as the "Irlandaise" au boulot due to her total support of Irish rugby over French :green clap: .

Have to admit she does not come from a rugby family but she just can't stand the general arrogance of Blanco et al.

Mes hommages Madame/oisselle :wink:

Thanks 4PP!
Before moving to Ireland in 2004 I was already watching the 6N matches and cheering for the Irish.. Moving to Ireland and Dublin just got me more and more into rugby.. I am so proud to be "Irish", I'm wearing with pride my green and blue jerseys! I have never supported the French and will never do it. I hate their arrogance so much!!! For personal reason I'm back in France since Sept but will be back in Dublin by next Summer... I CANT WAIT!! I miss it so much! I'm so happy to go to Montpellier and be with my rugby family and get behind the boys! I've missed it SO much!!!
Once back in Dublin, I will get my second tattoo designed by a fellow Leinster/Irish supporter and it will sum up everything, "My blood is French, my heart is Irish" will be part of the tattoo.. Im so excited to get it!! The first tattoo sums up my 8 years in Ireland (before moving back to France)... and the second one will reinforce the love and pride I have about MY green country!!
:D

Well Holy God!

Sandrine cherie (if I may be so informel !) the only way I can be sure you are not my nearest & dearest is the admission of tatoos :lol:

The jerseys? She has them all, from all 4PP, but maybe we are just to old to indulge in body art :wink:

Delighted to hear you love my "home", I do too :happy clapper:

We are 2 people flying from Dublin into Lyon on Friday and home and Sunday. We are hiring a car with Hertz if anyone is interested in sharing the journey and costs. PM if interested.

Long range forecasts aren't always the most reliable but at the very least it will give you a link to check before you decide what goes into that hand luggage Thursday night :mrgreen:

In any case it won't be cold :green clap: wet maybe, but not cold :mrgreen:

Does anyone know what shirt the team will be wearing next Saturday in Montpellier ?

Its a hard one to figure out, Montpellier wear blue and white colours, and white and blue as second strip.
We wear blue and white, white and blue as a 2nd strip and the new lighter blue and white as a 3rd jersey.

I just don't have a clue and want to make sure im properly attired to support the team !

We're flying with Aer Lingus in Friday, do I need to check-in online and print boarding passes like with Ryanair or do Aer Lingus still have the kiosks we can check-in on by scanning our passports? I've not flown with them in years and didn't select seats when making the booking.

Kiosks are still there. Prefer them to print outs. Now down to 30 seconds from reaching Kiosk to getting my boarding card.

Just make some noise whatever the colour :green clap:

"Bleu" or "Blue" will definitely be "the" colour. Both sides home strips are too close to imagine they will both field them. I'm thinking Leinster will have to opt for the predominatly white away strip.
I'm just slipping on the "Green" jersey, make life easier, & stand out in a field of bleu :mrgreen: . I'm not worried about being in the middle of Monty supporters.

As long as you stay alert (particuarilly outside the stade) & be mindfull of any chav types in hoodies, baseball caps & a suntan you'll be fine :wink: .



EDIT: Btw the "fleurs de cistes" will be out in force, in bleu :wink:

Think Fitzpatricks is close to Place de la Comedie.

Can anyone find the OLSC away guide. Said in the Leinster squad announcement that it's up on the Leinster site but I can't find it.
