Except the visitor numbers do not correlate to your post.
Ireland is easy to get around you say. You also say people pull a pint and go west.
Yet the numbers donât show that.
So youâre wrong.
The N/M7 is a car park this evening with all the Dubs fleeing for the country side

When Iâd be abroad on international bidness, during the few moments of the day when customers arenât throwing heavy/sharp/heavy & sharp objects at me under a barrage of expletives in their native language, they may offer an opinion about Oireland, and how they visited there a few years ago, and loved it, or would love to visit in the future.
Overwhelmingly (and Iâm aware this isnât a scientifically-sound sample) they will be keen to visit Dublin, and drink the Guinness or catch a leprechaun. Some of them may be aware of some mountains or cliffs way off on one side of the island, but even they will generally have no idea what they are called. A good whack of them will have mountains or cliffs in their own native land, incidentally. Dublin is definitely the draw.

I generally tend not to visit tourist attractions and just traipse around a city.
The big problem with Dublin is the level of junkies in the main parts.
True enough, itâs a drawback certainly. At the same time the pick pocketers are a far greater scourge in the likes of Paris and Barcelona.
I donât think our scumbags have the wherewithal to do it though. Begging is more profitable.
Amongst the more bizarre reasons/excited to go to Ireland things I heard was a cousin of my of my other half in the US last year.
He was excited to go to the same barbour shop as Conor McGregor in CrumlinâŚ
TNH etc
Iâve actually had my hair cut in this premises. I had a grand chat, a lovely chat actually, with the lad doing the cutting, but he was shy enough about the actual removal of hair.
Bank Holiday, Punchestown, roadworks. A hellish trifecta.
Youâd want your head examined to be taking the M7 home
