You are right in relation to Travel and indeed County Cork is far away for Cavan people to go and support the County Team. It definately would require the auld Camper Van to be revved up and the bed linen aired.
In conversation at the top corner of the Imerial (as the great Mrs T says a great font of wisdom ) your post was discussed and it was felt that Cavan people could benefit from Corkoians vising as we could provided B & B and make afew Euros out of them
If the E5 admission fee was introduced , and say distributed via the Cork County Board sure the Cork people could take a some of these cheaper tickets up here to us.
all it would take is for Cavan supporters if challenged to develop a thick Cork accent at the turnstile and sure everyone is a winner"

Glad you find some merit in my suggestion. Good luck with the B&B business and with developing the Cork accent for when you need it. Boy.

If you ever find yourself in Wexford, I've a spare room here where myself and Mrs P could put yourself and Mrs T for the night, at a reasonable rate. Might even knock off a few quid if you bring us a sack of spuds, or maybe a bag of turnips.

Well Lord it odious of you to display such kindness to us up here in Cavan.
And I will sure take up your offer of then free accommodation , for myself and my friends.
We generally travel in a 7 seater to away games/ visits
You get away with the same charges at the Tolls .
In relation to taking gifts / presents, when MC Carrens was in full swing a pound of Sausages would be lovely to bring. Even Cavan Kola is no longer available. Mrs T is an avid Knitter and a wolly war-- could be just the thing .
Thank you in advance
