Do you know of a place where someone could watch England's World Cup rugby match on the 8th? Preferably with a decent breakfast in front of them?

Temple Bar area would be convenient.

Cheers

Fitzsimons Hotel may be a good bet? http://www.fitzsimonshotel.com/

In fact they are doing RWC breakfast specials. How good is that? Welcome to Dublin! Fáilte!

That looks perfect! Doesn't look like they're taking advance bookings yet, but I'll keep an eye on the website.

Many thanks.

Thanks Jack. But we're staying in a hostel, so even if there's a TV in the common room, it's not necessarily possible that we'll be able to control what's on. And breakfast there amounts to toast and....toast...

It's on normal terrestrial TV as well (RTE 2) so if you're staying in a hotel you could probably watch it from the comfort of your own bed, if necessary...

all the Wetherspoons pubs will be showing it-even better if you can find a Walkabout thats gong to show it-if living in London look in TNT magazine for the ad's.

Ah. I'm guessing this is appearing on the generic UK and Ireland branch. Sorry #5. I posted this on the Ireland 'twig', and wasn't specific enough. Temple Bar is in Dublin. While there might be a single Wetherspoons, according to google there's no Walkabout.

Leela, head to Walkabout just off Grafton Street if it is still there....it will be open and you will get a good feed!

There are no Wetherspoons and Walkabout has gone for a walk elsewhere! (no offence Perthdriver) It's called something else now but still shows rugby and will be big on the RWC! I think it may be called "Sinotts":

Thanks, both of you. Seems like it won't be too hard to find it. Cheers.
