Its got some sort of protection for the first 10 meters so it cant be destroyed with graffitti im sure the skum on oconnell will stiill find some way to ruin it

Acidflash · 18-12-2002 6:56pm

What a waste of money

Funky · 18-12-2002 8:18pm

its made of some non-stick material so you wont be able to graffiti it.

i'd rather they spent the money on something useful , like some vigilantes to 'patrol' o'connel street but hey

This is a monument for all the junkies in Dublin,

When they wake up in the morning they see the biggest needle in the world and say " swaaa swaaa look at the needle boyzzz"

haha
