    Allegedly Frank's spine ramp is gonna be the main focus of attention
    - same one as was at Dublin City Council event last summer.

    Should be worth a look - hope it stays dry!

    I'm going on the sunday, I'll be there with wife and kids in tow as well, so hope to see some of you there! I'll try and post a google earth map or similar for reference!!! The old shopping center is in the main town near the Luas flyover bridge, The Dundrum stop on the luas will leave you right beside it!

    The empty space, if still empty, underneath that bridge would be perfect for a small skatepark/plaza along the same lines as Projects MCR in Manchester, Milton Keynes, Bay 66 or the upcoming Belfast park.

    Yeah praying for good weather.Hope they have something on for the summer as well.
    Hey melekalikimaka if your taking pics for the promo company find out if they are going to do something when its hot and sunny!?!? Please!!

    Staright from met eireann: SATURDAY NIGHT: Cold on Saturday night with a fairly widespread frost and some fog alsoSUNDAY: A cold start on Sunday with frost and fog clearing as southerly winds strengthen and they will become strong and gusty during the afternoon and evening. Daylight hours will be dry and bright in most places but cloud will thicken and rain will move in off the Atlantic in the evening to affect western areas. The day will be rather cool but it will become milder with the rain in the evening and it will be windy and fairly mild overnight with rain extending eastwards

    Heres hoping.....
