    Gridlock, cars getting stuck on the East Link, people getting out to push them over the top. Can see the bridge getting closed at this rate.

    I had planned to go out tonight (Dublin city centre) but I think I may have to cancel. I think I might just go out, starting to get cabin fever.

    My apartment is opposite the O2 so I have a perfect view of the utter chaos there. Sooner or later a lorry isnt going to make it over the bridge and its game over.
