Hopes rise as dollar improves

The chauffeurdrive/private car and driver business in Ireland has been given a boost by the gradual improvement in the dollar over the last few days. As always these changes show an up and down variation but let us hope that the movement is mainly positive and that it will make things more attractive for those visiting us from the USA. When i was a kid i can remember that you got three dollars for one Irish pound. If it was that way now we would not get anybody coming from the USA at all. So it could be worse. The Euro has been weakened recently because of the concern over the financial conditions in Greece. This recession has been so widespread and has left so many countries, including Ireland, in a shaky condition. We will recover i have no doubt. The Irish are very resourceful and we are fortunate that we do not have a huge population. There are international corporations that have an annual budget greater than our whole budget. I keep telling all of our patriotic cousins in the USA to buy Irish and give us a dig out. We do have an awful lot of really good products besides our whiskey and crystal. Try our delicious butter. Our meat is second to none....and all free range. How about those Irish sweaters? How about a holiday in Ireland with Dave? I had to get that one in. For those of you who are already coming to me, there is great value here this year and i know that you will enjoy it. All the stores have great bargains in sales that are ongoing. Golf courses have reduced their fees drastically, and no harm. Food as you go, drink prices, coffees and teas and snacks are much cheaper and hotel rates are also a lot more attractive. This is a great opportunity for anybody who has wanted to come here for a long time or for those of you wanting to come back. I am getting a lot more enquiries of late and i have been very busy this week doing out itineraries for prospective clients. Do not put it on the long finger. I can only deal with so many clients and i hate to disappoint anybody.
Karen wrote a nice little piece on my Blog for me last night and it is great to see just how excited she is about coming in April. Have a look. Well Karen, am looking forward to showing both you and Marcie around and i know that Ireland will not disappoint you. She never does.
