    As long as I’ve lived in Manchester for 22 years, it’s always rather special for me to come home to Ireland to visit my extended family and friends in Rural Ireland and in Dublin - I try to speak Irish Gaelic where I can, as I still hold an Irish passport and I love the fact that they have the place names in Irish as well 🇮🇪☘️🇮🇪❤️❤️❤️❤️

    Being Irish myself and living in Manchester 22 years, having extended family in Ireland, my pet peeve with the LUAS trams in Dublin is that there is no line from the Irish Ferries Terminal in North Wall into the City Centre, when I arrive home on SailRail from Holyhead - there is a nearby station in Dublin Docklands and they are planning to extend that line from M3 Parkway to Navan in the coming years, but the transport options out of Dublin Port are very limited, even though the Port has been expanded to take cruise ships - there is not even water taxis along the Liffey at high tide like they do in London

    Living in Manchester 22 years, I go home to Ireland as often as I can on SailRail via Chester and Holyhead on TfW or Avanti - your best option is the Irish Ferries Ulysses ferry, but I don’t recommend the Dublin Swift, as the ride is too rough and it’s more likely to get cancelled in rough weather - be aware that transport options out of Dublin Port into Dublin City Centre are very limited and getting back to Dublin Port for your return sailing can be very problematic if you don’t allow at least 2 hours to transfer from the City Centre to the Port

    1:05 I see what you did there. Also, 3:01 - ‘The tube in the cube’! You usually can get on the canal in Dublin, near Mespil Rd just past Baggot Rd. (Go through a couple of locks, right in town!)

    6:37 Busaras Coach Station is in a disgraceful condition and has been left to decline since the early 2000’s - it’s an embarrassment for Ireland’s tourist industry and yet, it was never like this when I grew up in Dunshaughlin Co Meath in the 1970’s & 1980’s, it did used to be a beautiful station - when I see it now when coming home from Manchester, it’s total cringe
