Will have to watch out for the DART or LUAS crossing the runways at Dublin Airport in the near future, if there are any pilots to fly the planes!

Look away now if you are easily offended! Many years ago I had a summer job working in the Fish Market in Dublin We were plagued by seagulls So the regular lads came up with some serious deterrents First one was to put baking soda into several herrings and throw them onto the roof Seagulls would swoop down and swallow them About 5 minutes later when digestion started the seagull would explode when his stomach acid mixed with the baking soda, usually over either Capel Street or OConnell Street, how we laughed! Second one was to throw 2 herrings onto the roof, they would have a 5 yard length of fishing line and hooks attached to both Two seagulls would swallow a fish each and fly off, and when the line kicked in we would watch them pulling in different directions until they eventually fell from the sky The final thing they did was one fish with about 20 yards of fishing line and a hook, when the seagull took the fish they let it fly off and when all the line had played out they would yank on it and watch the poor bird come shooting down from the sky This was before You Tube and the internet so I have no vids to show unfortunately

I had to wear black socks at work for some years There was a fire in Dunnes Stores Donaghmede in the 90's We were involved in the investigation but it turned out to be an electrical fault The sprinkler system managed to ruin most of the stock in the clothing department Also smoke damage to the stock as well. They invited anyone involved in the investigation plus staff to purchase any of the smoke damaged stock I managed to get a box of a gross of black socks (144 pairs) for £5 (shows you how long ago it was) The smoke had permeated the socks and it meant they were good for 2 days wear! Might still have a couple of pairs somewhere

I heard they are putting them at different heights so the moaners would have something to give out about

MRSI Dublin Show 2024 - All New Venue - All in One Hall
WRENNEIRE replied to Blaine's topic in What's On?
In our old haunt is St Pauls in Raheny we had several complaints from both exhibitors and traders that they were not getting enough footfall in the smaller classrooms as opposed to the folk in the main hall. We will see what the reaction is to the new venue and then see what is best for everyone -

Running is essential for these locos, 20 mins in each direction dramatically alters the running noises
