    Two young idiots just attacked a auld fella outside Debenhams on Henry Street. Think (hope) the Gardai got them. Scumbags

    A curious badger looked out from an apartment balcony, while eating a twix.

    Unfortunately, the poor dogs are used now to attract your attention, and get ye parting with your cash.

    A couple of harmless zombie like folk outside Londis on the corner of Westmoreland Street harassing folk for change. With every rejection they quietly shuffle onto the next target. Extraordinary creatures altogether.

    the only strange thing about that is that they were in a phone box.

    A street free from litter or puke is a very strange sight indeed

    Today? Did see someone lying outside that shop with a tissue over his cheek and two gardai standing beside him but they weren't saying anything to him.

    I like haggling with the locals when buying tobacco from them on moore st. Today's brand was turner and 40g for €11, said it would be up to €12 once deco is back.

    It was 50g for a tenner but it has being about 6 months since I bought any.

    Reminds me of something I read on the news last year about some poor lad getting jumped on by two guys in the toilet of McDonalds in O'Connell's Street. Not saying it was the same lads, but you're not safe anywhere nowadays. I've walked that area in the past as well.
