    Not 100% sure of the exact location,but heres how to get to BlackRock from Heuston station.
    1.Outside Heuston get any bus into the city centre.
    2.From there make your way to Tara street station(close enough when you get off the bus)
    3.Get a DART(every 5 mins) southbound and check the signs for Blackrock.When you get to Blackrock you should be able to get exact directions to this company.
    Hope this helps.

    Normally called AIG and main business is Insurance, but also finance, leasing etc.

    Address is Parkhouse and Blackrock is County Dublin, not D4.

    It's about a five minute walk from the DART, near Eagle Star & Canada Life

    Accomidation in Blackrock is very expensive but still its well nice at the same time. Very nice area but you will pay through your nose for it.

    :D Oh Jesus!! That has to be the funniest thing I've heard all year! Are you from Dublin Hellrazer, or have you temporarily lost your mind? A DART every 5 mins? :eek:

    Sorry loon according to dart.ie the dart departs tara street st every 6 minutes.

    http://www.irishrail.ie/your_journey/timetables.asp

    If you select a time between 8am and 3pm which Id say this person is travelling between then according to dart.ie then there is a dart every 6 minutes.

    AIG also do pension funds and the like.

    The building in Blackrock is their european IT headquarters, AFAIK

    If you leave the DART station, follow the crowd to the mainstreet in B'rock, at th lights almost opposite you will be a small road heading inland, hoof up that to the end, you'll be facing the B'rock bypass. Superquinn HQ will be on the right, Eagle star and AIG building on the left.

    As it happens my sister is a PM with AIG, if you've any specific questions, give me a PM and I'll forward it on.

    Sorry Hellrazer, but in the real world, DART timetables are irrelevant. They DO NOT depart every 6 minutes. I truly do believe you've lost your mind.

    I arrived on the station once to see the sign reading 40 minutes till the next DART!!! I've often seen the display change from 2 minutes back to 4!! Or do you ever get that last minute which seems to go on fo five?

    Yeah the timetables report this, but it doesn't happen, and I don't believe you're that naive to think they are every five minutes?

    Hehehe, a Dart every 6 minutes, thats funny!

    Is it not the Dart company who's motto is "We're not there yet but we're getting there!"?
