    Very necessary. Not everyone in Ireland knows Dublin. Nor should they be compelled to, called names or belittled for not knowing Dublin.

    Surprising that alot of people would't know it, theres quite a famous post office there I understand.

    Off-Topic It's not a dublin slagging off the rest of the country thing.

    It would only be neccessary if boards was the only bit of the internet available to you and you relied on it for all your news.

    You have google people... any pics up of it yet?

    I'm surprised there's been none on twitter or anything

    I can confirm there is no Kylemore Cafe on O'Connell Street or for that matter any other street in Ennis :D

    Is there any piece of evidence or anyone who can vouch for your argument?

    Yeah but that's history. All it takes it to be put in front of one bad history teacher and for the teenagers it's ZZZZZZZ.......

    Anyways, no more farting cows giving milk. That's just wrong, as evidenced by the singed beef now in O'Connell st.

    Sometimes it can be a good idea to read a thread before posting. It maintains a certain air of continuity.

    One of Dublin’s best known streets was shut today after a suspected gas explosion at a cafe.

    O‘Connell Street was closed to traffic and pedestrians at lunchtime after the incident at the Kylemore at about 12.45pm.

    There were no reports of injuries so far, a Garda spokesman said.

    Both the north and south bound sides of the street were initially shut but the northern side later reopened.

    A Bord Gáis inspector was on the scene, a spokesman for the company said.

    It is not clear whether the explosion, which occurred in the basement of the cafe, was caused by gas.
