A bus company in the North has changed its mind about running shopping tours to Dublin.
It was organised as shops in the north are due to close due to restrictions, while shops here are expected to re-open next week.
The company was selling tickets for the trip from Derry to Dundrum Shopping Centre in December, saying: "With shops closing in the north, the south is re-opening on Monday 30th, lets get seats sold and have a relaxing day to the biggest shopping centre in Ireland."
However has since updated its statement to say it won't be going ahead.
Management says "after double checking travel restrictions it's not possible at this time".

Meanwhile, Dundrum Town Centre issued a statement earlier, distancing itself from the tour: "The safety and well-being of our colleagues, customers, and retailers is our number one priority at Dundrum Town Centre, and please rest assured we take our responsibility very seriously. Trips such as the one referenced are currently not in-line with Government guidance, nor are they affiliated with the centre.
"We look forward to welcoming customers back to the centre, and all visits must be in-line with Government guidance. We ask that all visitors are responsible and consider others when visiting."
