    There was a Census Checkpoint on the Dublin Road, just down frmo the groody roundabout in castletroy. The gardai were there with some people called "???????? Consultancy" and they were stopping random cars. There was another one this morning near the treaty stone.

    Last week they were on the dock road, at the coonagh roundabout yesterday. Slowing me down on the way to work! Suppose it has to be done.

    Yeah I seen them down by the Crescent Shopping Centre holding up traffic I think they are picking roads where the traffic is slow enough to count them.

    Were on the tipperary road at 5.30 last tuesday.
    I mean in all fairness traffic is bad enough and then they have to do that.
    My friend was driving and told the guy where he could shove his census.

    I spotted one in traffic ahead of me near St Johns Island and had to take a quick detour as I saw the Garda and me with no tax! :eek:

    They were on the Condell Road this morning between Shannon Bridge and the turn off to the NCR.

    Took 50 minutes to get from Coonagh roundabout to town. Of all the places to set up. Ridiculous.
