    Does anybody know what happened the Dolphin that used to be outside AIB bank on Tullow street . For newcomers to the town It was made of Fibreglass and was bronze in colour . Is there any photo graphs of it . Its whereabouts came up in discussion during an extended tea break .
    I suppose if it was there now the clients from the med bar might interfere with it . :eek::eek:

    God yeah! I'd forgotten all about that 'till I read this!

    It must be gone a long time now. At least 30 years, I'd say.

    Must make some enquiries...
