2 bikes = twice as happy
Don't forget to tell your bank too, especiallyif it's a joint account and one of you is spending Ireland while the other is shopping at the Trafford centre.
2001 Transalp XLV650. Faithful old friend still chugging away nearly 100,00miles
2007 Varadero XLV1000. Now you're torquing but sadly gone to another forum member. One of the best bikes - period.
Yamaha XT660r - slowly getting it ready for some big adventures

That'll never happen!
She can't stand the Trafford Centre, full of tourists, the only thing it's good for is people watching from the pub near the cinema, some of the sights you can see from there!!!

Your bank cards will work fine in Ireland and give out euros at that banks exchange rate.
If your in a tourist area a lot of the place will also take sterling and work out the exchange rate for you, but usually it is rounded off in their favour.

Sure theyll take Da Punt wont they? Or just scribble on a piece of paper something dhat looks like Da Uoooro. Theyve never had real money down there.
TA700 2010 - Givi full set, Centre Stand, Scotoiller with LubeTube, Honda Tall Screen, Givi Crashbars, OEM Heated Grips, Fenda Extenda, Bar Risers, SSteel Spokes, Arrow Race-Tech DarkLine Exhaust, even bigger smile!!
TLD 2010 - 600 miles, 18 hours travelling, 4 hours sleep and no pint of guinness!! Must go back for that....

Bad move asking the wife to get me some euros, she took all the cash that I had put aside for TLD and changed the lot!!!!!!
I've had to explain that they probably won't take euros in the pub next to the TA Centre.
(she said thats ok, I'll change some back, they are offering a better exchange rate to swap them back anyway, 115c to the pound to buy, 130c to the pound to sell)
DOH!!!!!
