Comment by Michael McGuire on July 19, 2013 at 20:13: I'm not sure, but as far as I know it works out a lot cheaper than using a US cell phone, but as Lori says you'll find out in the pub!

Comment by Lori Putnam on July 19, 2013 at 19:26: Just enjoy the painting... who needs a phone? You can find out anything you need at T Moores every night. :)

Comment by Billyo O'Donnell on July 19, 2013 at 19:19: Does anyone have an idea how much the disposable phones cost?

Comment by Lynda Moore on July 19, 2013 at 17:44: Thank you Michael.

Comment by Michael McGuire on July 19, 2013 at 17:42: It's probably no more than a ten minute walk from there, Lynda.

Comment by Lynda Moore on July 19, 2013 at 16:13: Thank you Michael, hopefully it is within walking distance from the "Blue Door" on Lower George.

Comment by Michael McGuire on July 19, 2013 at 16:08: Yes, there is a large Tesco store in Wexford.

Comment by Lynda Moore on July 19, 2013 at 15:52: I just read that the supermarket chain Tesco carries the type of phone I am looking for. Is there one in Wexford?

Comment by Lynda Moore on July 19, 2013 at 15:37: Hello all,
I recently posted on the Yanks site that I need a phone while in Ireland, any know where I can pick on up?

Comment by Billyo O'Donnell on July 10, 2013 at 20:55: West Ireland? After the event I hope to kick around in the western part of Ireland, Dingle, Kilarney, etc., for a few days of paint. I am open to any suggestions such as where to stay places that area must see. I will be flying out of Shannon.
