Well i also noticed it, and i also noticed this:
Is it just me or is that the Jennie Johnston, ie the Famine Transport that was restored for tourism and as a museum?
What i don't get is... IT's a tall ship, and there's a Fixed bridge either side of it?
The New Bridge across the Liffey appears to be a Cable Stead Bridge, like the Dundrum Viaduct or the M1 Bridge in Drogheda. What i don't get is that it's blocking the way!!!!!!
Does it swing out so that the Jennie can leave or is the Jennie DOOOOOOOMMMMED, to stay there forever?
Because the bridge certainly can't lift! And it has fixed road at either end, or will when it's finished. And there's compensation for the possibility of trams, or so i've heard.
IS the Samuel Beckett bridge movable?
The answer is????
"The Samuel Beckett Bridge, Dublin City’s newest bridge, is due to span the maritime gateway to Dublin in 2008. Beckett Bridge, near Macken Street in the Dublin Docklands, will have four traffic lanes with cycle tracks and footpaths on either side of the bridge, while being capable of opening to accommodate maritime traffic. This landmark structure, of unique character, will have a curved profile leaning northwards resulting in a dramatic shape giving the appearance of a harp lying on it’s side."
So it can "accommodate" maritime traffic. Hmm interesting. So it must swing to one side, because i doubt it lifts up...
But the Jennie Johnston for a few months anyway is going nowhere!!!
To keep me awake yesterday morning i finished my collection!!!!:
Jolt Cola Can, Got to catch 'em all!
On a stroll this morning i noticed this appalling sight:
A six pack of beer, an empty can and a metro descrating the fair citie most reviered...whore.
The well proportioned and tourist catching Molly Malone with her Cockle's and so on has been desecrated...
Actually no she hasn't, it's just rubbish at 8am, but i binned it anyway.
What's more disgraceful is that tacking old man with the Borán! Oh how i hate him, almost as much as the African-Hibernian in the furry Leprachaun suit that stands about 7 foot.
To think we let tourist pose with these bozo's in front of a fammed whore? Really nice image that.
The BBC have got a winner!:
Since there's no more Where's Wally/Waldo books anymore, they might as well milk the White god of Car programmes for all he's worth!
How Buildings get taken down in China:
They Lifted that Digger up there, now that's using economic sense. You can't spare all those explosive's, your Chinese, you invented them, no stick one man up there with a Digger and let him have fun!
The Answer to all Male-Female Road trip relationship breakdowns, the Maptor!
A portable hand held projector that has an in built map storage and a gps locator!
Just point and display, even on your hand, and you can find out where you are!
SO COOL!
Even the cat's have noticed!
But some are not amused:
LOVELY CLOUDS!!!!!
A very special type of cloud that forms in long Tube's.
It's so rare scientists don't even know HOW it forms!
Goodbye for now.
