Hiya,
I posted a question here a few months back regarding travel from Britain to Ireland via ferry, in terms of ID needed.
In case anyone was wondering (not about me, but about the practicality of travel) I recently made the trip.
No one checked any identification before I boarded the ferry (at Holyhead), and when I got to Dublin, there was a man standing in the corridor who said "just tell me your nationality as you walk past."
When I de-boarded in Britain, I did have to show my passport. I think all that was needed was some form of photo ID; although a few people didn't have any and were let through. I guess they aren't so strict, or maybe just because it was a Friday.
Hope this can enlighten someone.
