The Business 006

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

John & Alan from the Business show on the bridge of the Julia Ferry with Fastnet Line CEO Tom Barrett & Ships Master Fergus O Driscoll.

 

Another interesting week onboard the Julia.   Today we had a visit from John Murray of the RTE radio 1 show The Business.   John was given a walk around of the Julia by Fastnet Line CEO Tom Barrett.   

Tom gave John an update of the progress made getting the Cork Swansea Route back running again.    John also tested one the beds in one of our 300 cabins. 

At the end of the tour John asked our CEO Tom Barrett to join the Mo-vember moustache challenge.  Tom has just 2 weeks to grow the best moustache.  This is all in aid of Irish Cancer Society to raise funds for Action Prostate Cancer.  A very good cause I am sure you agree. 

Want to sponsor Tom?  Go to http://www.rte.ie/radio1/thebusiness/1307849.html & make your donation.  I will start by making a donation of €100.  It is the least I can do after setting up Tom. 

Did John get to blow the fog horn?  Listen in tomorrow on RTE radio at 10am.  The show is live from the English market in Cork City. 

Earlier this week I had the pleasure of giving a tour of the Julia to Corks top radio presenter Neil Prendeville of 96fm. Neil was very impressed with the facilities onboard the Julia.

We also have had a visit from a number of U.K Journalists who are currently touring the West Cork region.

Fastnet Line are in the final stages of putting together the schedule & prices.  These will be online at www.fastnetline.com within the next 2 weeks. 

 I have had a lot of requests to see images of the interior of the Julia.  

We are doing a photo shoot next week and as soon as we get we will have online.  We have a lot to show off so we cannot wait to show you.
