    Have to go to ground for a couple of days for reasons that we can't go into at this time, and where better for a bogman to hang out than a fancy cultured hotel with good steak and beer and ample secure parking.

    If you had to go somewhere like that right now, where would you go?

    Well, it has to be in Ireland, but it can't be somewhere you'd ever find someone from Donegal. A bit like the buck that shacked up with the fireman in the Sopranos.

    Herbert Lane Hotel, Ballsbridge. You can go see whatever's on in the RDS, stroll into Dublin City Centre, feed the ducks in Stephens Green, and do whatever tourists do in Dublin. :)

    Is that the one with no bar in it?

    Bastard of a principal we used to have (ex Dublin footballer, I'm looking at you!) booked us in there one time we were on Blackboard Jungle.:mad:

    I'm thinking of Kilkenny, does anyone know if there's Tennent's in Kilkenny?

    Citywest hotel Dublin. Massive place. Easy to be invisible and not noticed. Failing that, Strand Hotel Limerick. Big fancy hotel great steak and Beer. Also full of female international cabin crew overnighting in Ireland. They'd love to hear all your tales of intrigue and mystery :)

    Sorry, I meant the Herbert Park Hotel, and it has a bar. I don't drink so I don't know if Tennents is available, which I understand is THE dealbreaker. :)

    Must have a look, it was the Mount Herbert I was thinking of, I think it's gone now. Hopefully.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,953 ✭✭✭6541


    I always though about this. Like if you really had to disappear, where would you go. I think South America. Just blend into one of the big cities.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,426 ✭✭✭Neon_Lights


    Would you not go up the North, good pound exchange rate and ample selection and affinity to piswasser

    The Rock Barton Hotel in Salthill Galway. Twin of the Santa Anna on Threadneedle road. Nice evening meals available.
    More out of the way and remote than Santa Anna. The setting feels more an upper middle class house estate.

    Right, the only thing is I was there 10 years ago - November 2007.

    If your credit card is in your name, and you don't have fake picture id, then you'll end up on a hotel register.

    Adopt the name spider or gemini and go live with hippies who are camped somewhere protesting. Ditch your phone. Nobody will find you.

    Just go to Waterford, check into the Castle Hotel.

    It's nice, close enough to town to get a cab in and out of there for a drink or to explore the town and it's quiet.

    And who the hell would think to look for someone from Donegal in Waterford?

    That is a depressingly accurate description of how one gets to Sardinia now that Ryanair have stopped the direct flights.

    Dublin to Copenhagen with Ryanair or to Oslo and Stockholm with Norwegian are all cheap.

    Dub - Cph and then a train to stockholm is silly cheap.

    All those places are further away from Sardinia than Dublin. Did I give the impression that I was looking for more of a challenge?

    Well tell us why you have to hide from an angry mob and we might just help you hide..... if the price is right :P
