Replying to FourWinds

Hi FW

I have been offered a trip to Ireland by the good people on the tourist board there. Where should I go? I think the newgrange area is the best bet as it is no too far from Dublin Airport (I can fly from the southwest then).
Can you recccommend a short two day itinery that would cherry pick the best bits.
It will be into the new year now before it happens.
