One of the nicest places I've been to. People spot on too, if a little bemused by the Ulster accent and constant singing. But its a proper rugby town. Last year, we took over the bar across the river, facing the Rec. Their supporters were bemused when they walked in an hour before K.O., to be greeted to about 100 Ulster supporters inside and out. (Huntsmans? Can't really remember! lol!) And the Cornish Pasties are worth the trip alone.
We took their main bar over after the match, Ulster flags awavin' as we drank their bar dry. But the Bath people are good sports and up for it.0
Stayin in Bristol (flyin in on Easy jet Fri morning) and getting bus at the back of the Premier Inn on Sat. morning, just like last year, Weather permitting.
A trip to the Baths is a must, btw.

Sleasyjet flight to Bristol at 0850 is cancelled

Problem is at Aldergrove, the inward flight from Bristol was checked in and other flights from bristol have taken off.
Nothing in or out of Aldergrove yet, quite a number is cancelled.

More snow forecast

Looks like no Bath for me.


Just on the news Belfast city and international closed.

I'm having a little Brussles deja vu moment.... :banghead:

As our Aldergrove flight was cancelled have transferred to the 9.55 Easyjet flight tomorrow morning. Arrives 11.00

2 of us will be getting a taxi direct to Bath, if there are 2 more willing to share the fare drop me a private message.

About 19 miles - so I am guessing £40

Ardglass - just spoke to a decent bloke at Prokabs (Bristol airport) 01275 474 812
HE quoted £40 for a cab, so ur spot on, they have 8-seaters for about £60 into Bath
and he said the driver might even do it for a little bit less on the day .. keep their number

Rang couple of others .. not even answering ... good luck

The big problem for Aldergrove appears to be fog - doesn't look good to be honest.

Is nothing simple :duh:
