    Hi, Does anyone know whats going on near O' Connell Bridge on the Liffey. Theres like a platform out on the water and there people working on it. I thought they might be checking the ground under the liffey for the metro to go under it or something. Does anyone know? Thanks! Carl

    How bad did it get towards the end?

    Here's an idea we should bring it back and begin the countdown for the year 3000 :p

    Not a bad idea, it could coincide with the opening of the Metro

    ah cool thanks i had looked everywhere for it...

    I was looking for a picture of the bridge as well for the box that took the pictures/money for the pictures, cos there was an arguement about where the recess on the bridge where the fr pat noise bronze plaque was placed in came from.

    If they are doing that work for the Metro in the liffey... would anyone object if I threw one of those Metro newspaper people in? (annoying blue anoraked gits).
