Help! I’m addicted. Anyone else? Exploring Dublin in Google Maps has become the new lunch time hobby of just about everyone in seems. Blurred out election posters and bus ads are just some of the gems in there, you can read graffiti long gone too. Jaycarax booted up some gems earlier on, and friends are reporting sightings of family pets and indeed family members all over the county.
I’ve spent the last hour or so looking at some long gone graffiti and businesses for example. Look at the site of The Workman’s Club on the quays, or hop up to The Bernard Shaw and see what art was on the walls around it. Looking at your own house is an obvious one, and probably the first thing everyone does. The shots of Dublin are from 2009 (A friend told me this recently, but to make sure I popped up to the Guinness Brewery and had a look at the front signage) and so much can change in a year.
Lithuania Rules, just beyond Lower Liffey Street, is still there.
