    A marquee is currently being erected in the centre of front square. I asked one of the people putting it up what was it for. "Obama" I was told but was unable to gather any useful information from him. Might Obama be making an impromptu visit to Trinity?

    They might have some sort of support/backstage thing in front square? They did mention having Obama's vehicles in that area.

    By "Obama", I doubt he/she meant Obama the man, but rather Obama the entourage.

    It's most mysterious. There are also gardaí about the place, but I'm pretty much used to that by now...

    OP, did you put his name in inverted names because you don't actually believe that it's his real name?

    This birther conspiracy is getting ridiculous...

    lol no... I was quoting the vague answer the high-vis wearing marquee erector gave me when I quizzed him on who the marquee was for.

    They seemed to be putting something else up today when I was there. Looked like seating for something. What was that all about?
