“Is there anyone in Dublin who would like to sponsor this season’s nursery for 4,5 and 6-years-olds* at a cost of €500?”

Anyone?

Storyfold – The Lost and The Lonely

Pete Murphy writes:

“Here’s the charming new video from Storyfold, all filmed in one afternoon on Dublin’s South Circular Road. We started at Kilmainham Jail, past IMMA, Rialto, Dolphin’s Barn, the old John Player factory, the boxing stadium, the Dublin Mosque, three Catholic churches, Polish shops, Lithuanian shops, African shops, Griffith College, many restaurants, pharmacies, hairdressers, cafés, butchers and grocery stores. To all those people who live there, walk the road and make it what it is, thank you. We hope you like it…”
