I myself couldn't understand the situation with the buses either. Trevor gets Citylink & yes they were running late in the evenings, but at least they were running. Bus Eireann just seemed to have just given up. A very sad state. On a lighter note though, I love the way the farmer at the beginning of the video took advantage of the flood & washed his wellies. lol As always well said & documented John.

You're one helluva guy. The pics are really so startling...odd to think it snowed here last night for the first time, and I'm doing my best imitation of a rain dance to stave off the evil white stuff. Believe if i get over in Oct of next year I'll pack some waist-waders...Wellies might not hack it. Good that you were there to recird abd validate events so well John. You’re one helluva guy.
