Ireland has become a big disappointment in my eyes its craweling with drugs an crime an its health system is a mess an one of the biggest problems is everyone still turns a blind eye ...as you can see form the answers above me ..everyone is still pretending thats its a lovely wee place with green feilds.. Am afraid not people..

It's a bit more expensive, but this is due to oil prices I think. Certainly petrol was a lot cheaper 5 years ago.
