“I’ve lived away from home for many years but views like this make me happy that I moved back. Taken just outside of Kilkee, Co Clare on the way to Loop Head [today].”

Further to yesterday’s post on the new €36.6 million library and arts centre [currently under construction] in Dun Laoghaire, Co Dublin.
The view from the pier.
Gulp.

“This is what it will look like from the top of the pier. It dominates the seafront and blocks out the lovely facade of the Royal Marine [Hotel], and is totally unsympathetic to its surroundings.
Given its proximity to the harbour, the bunker-esque style windows are ill thought out, and I think it’s amazing that there are no balconies or viewing platforms. The money should have been used to redevelop the old baths although they probably would have made a hames of that too.”

60 seconds of 80s awesomeness.
Some viewers may find the opening shot offensive.

[Bacon attached to posters belonging to migrant candidate Memet Uludag]
Via People Before Profit:
Memet Uludag is the People Before Profit candidate in Fingal/Castleknock local election area. Yesterday. Memet spotted strange objects attached to two of his posters in Blanchardstown Main Street, at the t-junction of Superquinn Shopping Centre. On close inspection, he discovered that the objects attached to his face on the posters were large pieces of raw bacon. The bacon pieces were attached to the high hanging posters by cellotape.
Memet, living in Ireland since 1998 and an Irish citizen is originally from Turkey which is predominantly a Muslim country. Shocked with what he saw, Memet took pictures of the vandalised posters (above) and reported the incident to the local Garda station in Blanchardstown.
