I am flying Aer Lingus with Mrs Plum as we play on Monday, to Shannon landing due at 9pm. Will stay at my brothers in Ballycasey for two nights taking in the Limerick game with him and my great niece who is over in Ireland taking a break from playing professional Womens football in Sweden (for Gustafs Goif....yeah I've never heard of them either). Wednesday morning train to Dublin. This is where it gets tricky. I have booked a nice hotel in Blackrock, and Ryanair to Stanstead leaving Dublin on the Thursday afternoon at 4.30, so I have to convince Mrs Plum that an afternoon and then the next morning is a nice treat in Dublin and she won't moan and do the eye rolling if I sneak off to the UCD game. In summary definitely the Limerick game, and hopefully the UCD game.
flying out to Dublin with the mrs Monday taking in the ucd game on the 12th on my birthday and returning Wednesday evening. just surprised the Mrs is gonna go to the game with me as she hates football although I did say there would be drinking involved which seemed to sway her. staying in temple bar so will probably cab it to ucd
Whilst pre-season friendlies are not everybody's cup of tea, I find this the most enjoyable part of the season. A chance to go to new places and new grounds in a relaxed environment.
Dublin shall get to know the lyrics of "just sell the club" next Wednesday!

I will also go to the UCD game.
No drinky, working every day.
That gets you to the nearest entrance to the football ground.
