Looks more dramatic than it is, but that’s the view towards O’Devany Gardens [Dublin 7] as far as I can tell…
Update:
O’Devany Gardens tonight.
No harm.
Smithfield [Dublin] this morning.
Anyone?
Thanks Simon Geraghty
UPDATE: We’ve removed a second picture from this post that included a popular shredding company van in the background. They had nothing to do with the strewn ‘ticker tape’ and the van was just parked there. They were were getting a ‘carpeting’ from some of their customers today about it.
Starting TONIGHT.
Street Stories Festival, celebrating Dublin 7 life.
The organisers write:
“The event kicks off tonight with a talk by David Jazay on his photographic story of inner city Dublin in the 1980s and ’90s followed by a music session in the Cobblestone pub. Tomorrow we have talks throughout the day on subjects from the Mother and Baby homes, to Dublin in World War I, from Life in Medieval Smithfield to the Massacre in North King Street during the 1916 Rising and lots more. Saturday night will see Dublin’s favourite ska/reggae band The Bionic Rats rocking the Back Room of the Cobblestone and Sunday will be a relaxed day of walking tours and film showings [details below]…”

Hi Broadsheet,
We have a few meetings coming up this month focusing on the Smithfield area. We are doing a lot of outreach and are engaging with the residents of this ‘restored’ area. It would be of great help if you could throw this up to help spread the word.
Thanks InkTonicMelvin and DD
Smithfield Horse Fair, Dublin, yesterday.
The awkward moment when a garda tries to check for an electronic tag on an impressively-endowed horse.
