    I'm not one to advocate Rasism but this sounds all to familiar to the works of Allah. Anyone up for beating up Muslims just in case?

    Nice one.

    A decent-strength blast could take out:

    The College of Surgeons

    A handful of Luas beggars

    Dundrum Town Centre-bound shoppers

    The corpo flats in Cuffe street

    Swan-stalking non-nationals in The Green

    Krystle nightclub

    Talk about a death-toll with broad appeal in AH. ;)

    No way. They're all trained ninjas! That's why they wear those robes!

    You'd need a nuclear warhead attached to take out krystle from York St

    Anglo?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 325 ✭✭I-Shot-Jr


    Ah more than likely some aul biddy saw an unattended empty plastic bag and called the guards saying she saw a bomb.

    Probably nothing to it.

    Erm, no :pac:

    I'm just wondering since I'm on lunch soon and I don't want to be maimed by some explosion - not until I get a nice sambo anyway.

    Maybe it's the sound of commercial property prices imploding?

    reports saying its not a bomb, but the bomb squad is involved. dont think anybody knows whats happening, they said some hazardous liquid in the royal college of surgeons is posing a threat.

    not sure what station is on the radio here but they have given 2 updates now on it.

    Someone check Street View!

    I wonder what they could mean by hazardous liquid?

    For a year old picture of the scene? Good thinking sir!
