    Looks like a police helicopter hovering (spelled it hoving in the title and can't seem to edit it!) near enough the Pavillions, with its spotlight on, has been for the last few minutes. Anyone know what's up?

    Spelled it 'police' also instead of 'Garda'. ;)

    Garda Síochána na hÉireann (Irish pronunciation: [ˈɡaːrd̪ə ˈʃiːxaːn̪ˠə n̪ˠə ˈheːɾʲən̪ˠ]; Irish for "Guard of the Peace of Ireland"), more commonly referred to as the Gardaí ("Guardians"), is the police force of Ireland

    Hmm, unless it's some bullshít promotional thing for Wright Venue, seems to be hovering over by there.

    If you click on Edit in your original post, then on Go Advanced, you'll be able to fix the title :)

    I saw the helicopter last night too, looked like they were chasing someone.

    Same deal there tonight. Around midnight, made a hell of a lot of noise too.

    I wonder if it's someone doing their night training in the helicopter?

    This seems to be your answer but still doesn't explain why it was hovering the following night.
