Fly to Paris Thursday then train to Brive. Seem to be a good few doing this apart from Pinky and his round the world trip of France.

Back Saturday Limoges - Stansted - Dublin. Back in Dublin about 9.30pm

The Shannon-Marseille flight I booked was eight quid earlier today - I feel ripped off I paid 26. It's gone back up now.
You can get a Thurs-Sun return for €17. It's a bit of a train ride to Brive but on the plus side you avoid Dublin airport. You also get back into Shannon at midnight so the bus is not an option.

@Pinky what's the status of finding a HQ for the weekend?
With La Bar Basque shut, where are we thinking?

We'll have to find that tackle bag beer dispenser again :woohoo:

Not a clue. I've been preoccupied with trying to find the most interesting way to get from Brive to Cherbourg. There is a fancy new LNG-powered ship that I want to try out.
Have you made contact with Kop Cabiste (if they still exist)?

Tickets on sale web.digitick.com/ca-brive-connacht-sport...pg101-ri9092173.html

for 2017, we were in Elie Peybrie stand, but were a little far from the front. Seats there are 39e
Looks like the seats behind the dugouts arent available, just the ends, at 49e, Tribune Europe

the stand at edge of pitch tickets seem to be 13e, was there for our first game in Brive, its not a terrace, it's flat

Hi, We'll be making that decision on the way down to the Munster match on Saturday. We'll probably go to the same stand as last time, but much closer to the pitch :P
Keep your eyes peeled on this thread and we'll have something up here over the weekend.Hope this helps.

Dublin to Bordeaux the Thursday, staying there that night and on the 12.37(?) train to Brive Friday.
Returning home via Toulouse and Marrakech, though I do like Pinkys Le Mans idea
