    Was driving down francis street this morning, well most of it anyway. The guards had closed the street down towards the end of it.

    Anyone know what was going on? Thanks

    Heard a lot of sirens last night so this explains it anyway. So was it the Dean Swfit, Liberty Belle or The Bayno is the question.

    fúkc - was walking into my apartment block from work at that time and thought to myself, as my boyfriend though to himself... blown tires, firecrackers or more gunshots.

    Sad really that we didn't even mention it to each other until now.

    No surprise tbh, I would have put money on that over the Dean Swift or Liberty Belle!

    Same here. Never been into it, but from the look of those I have seen going in, I'm not surprised. Beer only 3euro on a monday though..

    Not surprised that it was the bayno. Live around the corner for the last 2 years - still haven't ventured into any of the pubs on francis street yet!

    Fallons for a few quiet pints ftw ;)
