    Very much in Dublin 8!

    I know nothing about it (apart from where it is obviously). I tried 'googling' the quote but came up with nothing. There's nothing around it to indicate it's significance. It also quite discrete even though it near a major junction.

    Here's a wider image showing that it's not part of a larger creation.

    (I'm surprised Gavin Shels doesn't know this! Maybe he's out on his bike scouring D8 for it. :pac:))

    Although I can't recall exactly where it is but I thought it was another Mannix Flynn installation.

    Here's another wider image with two puzzled Japanese tourists (who saw me taking the close-up and went to investigate).

    Would have got that from the wider image.
    Gavin, when you're there, will you clarify something for me. The hairdressers in no. 6 - is it on Richmond Street South or the little street that branches off from Richmond Street proper (Richmond Villas?).

    Was actually down that neck of the woods tonight in Bernard Shaws, its South Richmond St, just before Richmond Villas.;) It's the little road that connects Harcourt St to Sth Richmond St, but afaik it's defo still Sth Ricmond St.

    AFAIK, and I've studied the matter. South Richmond Street has 3 ends, like Store Street, only worse.

    And your name is Gavin since when.:pac:

    Ye there's 3 ends as you said Victor, one up at Portobello Bridge (La Touche Bridge), then one onto Harcourt Rd (this is where your picture was taken Wish) and then another at the junction of Upper Camden St, Harrington St and Harcourt Rd.

    Yes, Store Street is weird alright. Was it like that prior to the construction of Busaras?
