Everything. As It Happens.
isn’t that the Lord Mayors whip?
Went past our office twice – once towards ballsbridge (RDS) and once back towards the city. Reckon it’s something to do with the Horse Show in the RDS
It looks a bit like the Lord Chancellor’s carriage that’s on display in Newbridge House. But then, I’m guessing probably they all do?
OK it’s the Lord Mayor’s coach

“Since then it has continued to lead the annual St. Patrick’s Day Dublin Parade and brings the Lord Mayor to the RDS to open the Dublin Horse Show every August.”
That’s the Lord Mayor’s ceremonial coach!

1. Wears a big gold chain to remember the chains his ancestors wore.
2. Says “drink your milk”.
3. Ain’t getting in no plane.
Clubber Lang is our Lord Mayor?
Intervenes when large country music concerts hit the rocks.
Bertie Ahern out for his afternoon ehh, trot again or should it be gallop.
The queen wishes! Her coach is modelled on this one
Wouldn’t it have been class travelling around in the older days in stage coaches and carriages.
Wearing top hats and having a cane with an ivory handle.
