You’d think it was unusual. I took this one at night only weeks before. I don’t know how the woman wasn’t bet into the front of the bus. http://photos3.pix.ie/7A/57/7A5790D5649740CE8D2049D6FD039867-0000342737-0002865997-00800L-8EE69ACAA4FB4C45B58A6A0067638AC7.jpg

Ah, I though you were talking about the guy jay-walking. What you describe sounds lethal. A million miles from my lamp post theory too.

Thanks,

Philip if you look at the car in the foreground you can see another car just at the back of it. The guy driving turned right at speed from Bachelors Walk and sped across O’Connell bridge on the wrong side. When he realised his mistake he swerved onto Aston Quay.

Thanks FXR. I thought that seemed too normal an activity in Dublin to be the something wrong that you were looking for.

Actually Philip there is somebody dangerously breaking the law in that photo.

I am not sure if it is what you are looking for, but it is the first time I have noticed that those beautiful concrete lamp posts are now gone from D’Olier Street. These once lined from O’Connell Street right down D’Olier Street and to College Street. It seems it there are now only one or two left on College Street. The rest have been replaced with ‘heritage’ style lamps.

Here is a quick snap taken in the city. What’s wrong in this photo?

Well it was a toss up between Conway’s or The Welcome Inn. You’ve probably more of a chance of Conway’s being open!

Don’t worry, I could post a lot more snaps that wouldn’t.

Ah balls! Niall got in ahead of me. I had mates who lived beside Conways when it was still open. A bunch of local young lads used to have a little hut thing to hang out in just off that lane in behind the hoarding. Love the Capel St. shot and the last one too.

Makes me miss Dublin!

See? All that time spent in the much missed Conway’s has stood me in good stead. I suppose now you’re going to tell me that’s where my pint is waiting.

Niall wins… Although somehow comments got mixed up. Its the lane behind Conway’s of Parnell Street. Well spotted!
