I thank the Chairman for his input, but I am trying to save the planet as best I can by keeping it on the road longer. The next slot in Letterkenny is 25 January. I can find nothing within 24.5 days anywhere. Where does this figure of 24.5 days come from? This is based on what is available online. I presume the vast number of the RSA's customers do this first before they ring in a panic to get on a priority list, which is what I did over the summer for my own car. I know a person can go in at perhaps midnight or 2 a.m. and find some slots that have been released, but why is the website telling me that these dates are the earliest I can get? It is early October. The next date in my closest centre is six months away.
