I'm intrigued but I'm not familiar with Zanzibar! The pic was taken from Abbey Street alright but do you know what street that building is on?

(Apologies - I don't know where/what Zanzibar is?)

Number 10

Grand Strand St (Off Liffey St)

I worked and got sick there after many a drunken night!

Blue Peter Badge on it's way to Grimes! Well done!

(I had just Googled Zanzibar and realised it was a pub on Lower Ormond Quay and therefore probably backed onto Great strand Street).


(Victor - that's why I was confused when you said Great Ship Street earlier - I thought you inadvertantly meant Great Strand Street)

In fairness, no 6 is difficult. :eek:

OK - it's a street in Dublin 8 which begins with the letter 'R'.

I Tried here but nothing!

From a page on the Dept of Industry and Commerce building:
http://www.irish-architecture.com/buildings_ireland/dublin/southcity/kildare_street/deptcommerce.html
"Apart from this work, (Gabriel) Hayes was also responsible for a panel on the College of Catering in Cathal Brugha Street called the Mhire Letios, and the designs for the 1p and 2p coins."

The statue(?) on the Cathal Brugha Street building is called 'The Three Graces'.

Thanks a million!

Had someone ask me earlier and didn't have a clue.

Cheers,
