Apologises, thought it had two.

That's okay. Sure where would I be without having someone to check my spelling?

I'll be down that way tomorrow going to the RDS so I'll confirm.:p

Ahh grand. The government will be delighted that you checked theirs as well.

Nice remnant of the 'Yorkshire Insurance Company' stone carving across the top of 3, though at a second look it looks like something else was put on top of it.

copacetic

bealbocht

is it Hanbury Lane.. the church is on Meath St ??

jdivision

i think you're right bealbocht, many a night i spent stumbling from Handels down that street to a house party in a lane just before the houses at the end of the street. I believe I ran after one of my shorter friends down that street because I thought it would be a good idea to use him for dwarf throwing.

Gavin "shels"

Defo Hanbury Lane, you posted that picture before I think Wish.:D

I was kinda thinking that.

If I could wind back the clock, I'd move all my prevoius posted pics to a new file. I've a couple of thousand pics and, no doubt, will duplicate them from time to time.
