    Well that centra is 24 hours I think so it might have gotten robbed. I'm at the other end of Rathmines and I haven't heard a peep though.

    There's just been an EOD call out (Explosive Ordnance Disposal), its a regular occurance these days.

    Pipe bombs eh - can't live with 'em, can't live without em!.

    Was thinking that myself, there was on ein the same place about a month ago.

    Centra up here is open till 12 :( nearest 24hr is the one beside rob yore pockets!

    I used to work in that Centra.

    One day this absolute beaut came in and bought 24 condoms. I says to her "some fella is in for a good night".

    She just grimaced and walked out.

    I'd like to think I've moved on since then but I haven't.

    They were getting in before the rush for breakfast rolls?

    see, this is why women should be allowed carry guns. you should have been shot for saying that.

    I didn't know that Centra up there was only until 12. Learn something new every day.

    I'm down the other end of Rathmines, although the siren-y van would have passed by but happily i sleep through all forms of sirens, bells, air raid alarms and burglar alarms.

    Was it a hoax in the end, or was there a pipe bomb? And, what the heck is going on up there - is someone unpopular living up that end of Rathmines??!?!

    So, do we know what actually happened?

    Nothing in the news about it.

    There's a lot of this stuff going on lately. Bomb scare on Charlemont St (or 'Charlo' as the local urchins call it) a week ago... think there was one out in Rathmines on the same day too.

    there was a low flying helecopter at the top of the rathmines road where the canal is last night at about 12 o'clock, stayed in the same spot for about 5 minutes then went off, very odd
