    on my way home last night [this morning] around 12:30am
    came down the quay & when I got to reginalds tower gardai directed me down adelphi quay by the side of the tower hotel

    came back up lombard street & had to turn around & go back up mall lane

    coming out at the top of the lane I had barely enough room to get out

    massive lorry with some cylindrical-shaped metal object on the back

    all I could think was it was something for the new bridge?

    anyone see it or know what it was?

    they were going in and out the cork road a few weeks back with these huge massive concrete pillars is all i can call them, they were about 100foot long.. i couldnt believe it when i seen them, it was about 4 or 5 am when there was no traffic on the road.. id imaging your cylindrical-shaped metal object and my bit pillars are for the bridge,

    They had the ring road by the RSC closed off moving the object at 12. Probably parts for the bridge as the planning has to be done way before they deliver them to the destination. The cylindrical part looked to have some sort of propeller at each end.

    There's a Small Hadron Collidor going from RSC to Dungarvan. Probably one of the parts for that.

    The propeller was probably part of the accellorator.

    I live on the mall and saw two of the same trucks going by with a Garda escort at about 9pm a few weeks ago. Presumed it was something to do with the bridge. But now I'm convinced it's something to do with reverse vampires and/or black holes

    probably a big tank of laughing gas,for the two warring traveller factions in the city,so they can have a good laugh at themselves along with the rest of us.

    Indeed... off topic and all that, so lets keep to the original point at hand. Without the rambling. :)
