Anyone from Cork driving to Kilkenny for Podcamp on Saturday? Our original plan was to go up on Friday via a convoluted circuit of trains, but unfortunately there is now no way I will be able to unchain myself from my desk tomorrow to undertake this all day journey. This means I need to travel up on Saturday.

As I am scheduled to speak (Marketing Strategies for Blogs and Websites: How to Pimp Your Own Ride Without Making the Internet Hate You, if you like that sort of thing) I sort of need to be there. Thus, I am looking for a ride. I am happy to provide petrol funds, and will even provide fresh baked muffins if it will help.

Ideally, I’d like to transport:

• Me, John and Eimear the wonder dog, who is an excellent car traveller and sits curled up at my feet in a foot well for the entire ride as unobjectionably as possible.
• If that’s not possible, John and Eimear can stay at home and have a more local adventure on Saturday, and just a seat for me will be completely appreciated.

If anyone can offer either flavour of lift, I’d really appreciate it! Thanks :)
