    I dunno, about 15 Garda cars (some of them unmarked, and one Garda van) just went down Pearse Street in the last few minutes... Particularly bad bar-fight maybe?

    Towards the point?

    Odd, there was a firetruck, an ambulance and at least another firetruck, a garda car or two flying around the roads off Drumcondra Lwr at about 9... About 10 minutes of sirens, and seeing emergency vehicles flying up and down the road.

    You sound close to it, I nominate you to go down there and report back.

    Godspeed!

    Can't hear anything now.. They seemed to be down towards the point and from the sounds of it they were circling or something before all the noise stopped.

    It was on the 1am news on 2fm. There was a car chase across Dublin. It started in Dun Laoghaire and it ended at 12.30 when the car crashed....

    Oh. Ok, maybe not, then. Carry on.

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    Apparently Dame St is blocked off with a fire in a pub this morning too.

    End of the world indeed!
