    We haven't done one of these in a while.

    "Here's the rules, a poster posts a picture of Dublin, people guess until someone is right. The winner either posts a picture or forfeits and somebody else steps up and posts a picture.

    You have to take the picture yourself (basically, don't take from websites). If it's a neighbourhood picture, take a picture that people can reasonably guess at. Not some back alley or some generic house. And make sure the picture takes in quite a bit (i.e. not a close-up of a bench or something) People just have to guess the neighbourhood, but for a city picture the winner has to name the street."

    Top of Bridge Street, near St Audoen's Park.

    I'll post one tomorrow when I'm in town.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 78,904 ✭✭✭✭Victor


    Correct.


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 12,135 Mod ✭✭✭✭BeerNut


    Thank you for your patience.

    Where's this then?

    It is! Well done.

    What street is this?

    John Dillon Street


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Regional East Moderators, Regional North West Moderators, Paid Member Posts: 13,141 Mod ✭✭✭✭miamee


    Yep, it is. Always liked that view of the small residential street with St. Patrick's towering in the background.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,160 ✭✭✭✭GBX


    Perfect - I'll post something in a while or if somebody has one ready to go, fire ahead.

    No.


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 12,135 Mod ✭✭✭✭BeerNut


    Might be time for a clue. Northside or southside?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,160 ✭✭✭✭GBX


    Southside - will add: religious angle.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,988 ✭✭✭✭Gavin "shels"


    Ormond Street off Cork St?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,160 ✭✭✭✭GBX


    That's it - the Partners in Faith convent.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,988 ✭✭✭✭Gavin "shels"


    Will try get a photo at some stage today, if someone else has one handy fire ahead in the meantime.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,178 ✭✭✭✭Cienciano


    I have one, I'll jump in for Gavin.

    Three Rock in the distance, but I can't identify the houses.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,160 ✭✭✭✭GBX


    Somewhere out dundrum way ?
    Any clue ?

    Yeah GBX, right direction. Not quite as far as Dundrum. There's a park on the left

    Marley Park?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,178 ✭✭✭✭Cienciano


    No. Way smaller. Ok, it's obscure enough, so I'll give a landmark. Nearest pub is the dropping well


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,160 ✭✭✭✭GBX


    And its a distinguishable landmark/recognisable place?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,695 ✭✭✭francois


    Dartry Park?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,178 ✭✭✭✭Cienciano


    Ok, I though the distinct framing of 3 rock might give it away but it might be too obscure. It's down Patrick Doyle Road from the windy arbor playground near the 9 arches


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 12,135 Mod ✭✭✭✭BeerNut


    Playground, eh? Which one's this?

  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 12,135 Mod ✭✭✭✭BeerNut


    Correct, old hoss!
