    anyone know if Bill Madden is still under contract for these 'flower' boxes because by the looks of it he has done the Irish thing and sub-contracted the care and maintenance to our good ole friend Mother Nature...

    I thought they had been removed.

    They are gone from the Sean Mulvoy road.

    I saw the one jkforde photographed on Canal Road a few days ago but didn't really pay attention.
