	Indeed - the biggest problem is that Ireland's efforts at decentralisation
have largely failed, with Dublin having by far and away the largest
concentration of people anywhere in the country.

	Thus far, people have been very good to make the effort required to travel
into Dublin, but I do think those living outside Dublin should be reminded
that they are free to call a PotD (Pint of the Day) at any time, for any
location. I used to call them reasonably regularly in Limerick when I was
travelling there.

	I'm hoping to have events of interest to ILUG coming up in Limerick and Cork
in the near(ish) future - and would be interested in an excuse to travel to
other places... so get organising events! :-)

	Best regards,
	-->Gar
