No.10 ain't in Temple Bar?

Rashers

In my oul area and I missed a lot. :mad:

No.2 is in Nth William Street. They used to sell holy pictures, statues and medals there but don't know what they do now.

If memory serves the building to the right that you can just see is the school where Brendan Behan started his education.

Thanks for reviving this thread Wish.

Certainly is Gavin - throw a name on it!

I take it that your not 'into' street names (like a lot of people )? But, being Christmas, I'll give it to you as you clearly know what you're talking about.

5 is City Quay and 6 is Store Street.

hunter164

Sorry man I can find me way around town just don't remember street names greatly. I shoulda known Store St. though because of the Gard station there.

Cheers Wish.

Lads/ladies - I'll head for the leaba as I'm on duty for the next 3 days (8am to 9pm). Santa is done. Fair play to Mrs WA who did 95% of it. I had to eat half of Rudolph's carrot and drink Santa's milk (yuck). The house is full of Sylvannian Families or whatever they're called.

Happy Christmas to all.

(PS - I don't have access at work (PubSer) so I won't be able to reply until tomorrow night).

Raw carrot & luke warm milk is one of the things I dread every Christmas. Happy Crimbo Wisher, have a good one.





PS I'm too full of wine to focus fully on your pictures, I'll try a few guesses tomorrow!
