What have they done with all the padlocks?
This morning.
The Hapenny Bridge, Dublin, adorned with over 5,000 red roses from Aldi Ireland.

Tomorrow, on Valentine’s Day itself, Dublin City Council will be handing out thousands of Aldi flowers and Irish chocolates on three different Dublin bridges– the Ha’penny Bridge, Capel Street Bridge and the Millennium Bridge… ‘
The council’s Dublin at Valentine’s’ have also created an Alternative Love Trail around the city. Guerilla Love Poetry will also feature on the three bridges, and will see poets, performers and wordsmiths wooing the public with their love poems and sonnets….

Marketing Ireland 101 : Grab a Young one and put her red dress. GRIN manically.
Should she not be in a bikini?
Most definitely not, no thank you.
Reason #37 why marketing folk are the worst people in the world.
Sexy chungwan for those into that sort of thing and… a ukulele playing auld fella for the rest of us. F*pp yiz and yizzer poxy Valentines day yiz hewers.
I’d be more impressed with Aldi if they stopped using zero-hour contracts and allowed their staff to unionise.
That impresses you? Oh dear
So it’s not just the Irish models suffering…

Model and “SINGER”. I thought it valentines tomorrow not April fools day.
Model and snigger?
The padlocks wrer removed because they cause rust damage to the bridge. Most small padlocks are made from low grade metal & alloys which rust & react with the rain water, dripping various chemicals onto the bridge steelwork.
The bridge doesn’t have steelwork, it’s cast iron. Which is the problem – the different metals in the padlocks react to the cast iron itself, destroying it. The phrase you want to google is “galvanic corrosion”.
Galavant’s corrosion for the days that are in it :)
Let me preface this by saying I haven’t a note in my head but shouldn’t singer be in quotation marks?
I hope they paid that homeless person to prop up the heart behind her.
They were definitely on JobBridge.
Oh yeah.
HA! (penny).
Nah, they just found one who had passed out and rolled them into place.
singer brilliant!!
Just out of shot – peeved pedestrians who just want to cross the fupping bridge
