    I encountered this souvenir in a large newsagent, now that St Patrick's day is coming up. Die Cast and Free Wheeling. Yeaah!!!!!:( What meaningless kitsch have you seen as a souvenir/ toy or otherwise?

    That's not too bad really when compared to the likes of the leprechaun outfits and such that are also available. If you had a young nephew or that he'd be happy enough if you took him home a green bus.

    Anyone who drives along Drumcondra road will probably recognise this.

    My daughter buys me a kitsch present every year, all time favourites is the Korean Swiss chalet cuckoo clock made out of genuine faux wood (it says so on the label) and the Dolphin fountain with birdsong effect.
