   If that is on Cork St, yes, its a new park being built.
   First purpose built one in the City – all others were donated land.

            There’s other ways to exercise than football and GAA. Although they’re more about swilling pints than actually being proactive.

               I sneer at them after they make dull jokes. I was merely saying this will be a nice addition for younger people in a deprived area.

      Thats great news! Cork st has looked as bleak as Russia for a good few years now, too much concrete, no trees.

            Ever thought of getting into local government yourself, and being the change instead of incessant lower-case sloganeering?

      Early days yet.
      I’ll be sure to bring it to the attention of the committee later this week.

   Brilliant news! Was wondering when they were going to make a start on that, as it’s due to be open to the public this year. A much needed resource in that part of the city.

   Looks good
