We all know that Christmas is now effectively cancelled - pubs won't be re-opening for it for sure. I think it likely that we are not going to be in a much better place in 6 weeks and there will be a nasty mood about what was all this for. The populace might get very restless come early December especially if you have the Guards going around window twitching.

I have reported it twice to the council, but they've done nothing. Its also becoming a bottle neck on that road with the way cars are parked on either side. Its getting very frustrating!

I can never understand how such pedestrians are fearless about getting killed on the roads the way they never look left or right or observe lights when crossing.

They were told it would be an hour wait so they walked to the Grand Hotel. They were told to wait 15 minutes for a table but then apparently a few friends of Mr Boyle arrived and were given the next available table. When the girls complained they were ushered into the Dining Room which was half full and the bar was also nearly full. They got their orders and then the Gardai arrived and Mr Boyle ran away and the Gardai said this is a joke and left. This is totally unacceptable and I think the Gardai and the court services should rethink where they bring people doing Jury service for lunch which my income tax is paying for.
