200 Reasons

No mention of fresh milk. First thing that hits me when I'm abroad is the taste of that UHT muck everywhere.

Isn't it great how people from Dublin can type complete sentences!

Very capable. :pac::pac::pac:


Seriously though - nice list. Good to see a bit of positivity. Personally for all its faults I love Dublin.

Totally agree. Only after I spent 6 months abroad did I see Dublin through fresh eyes and realised I love it. It's too easy to be prejudiced about your own city that you've been in since birth.

I love Dublin too. No where in the world I would rather live and I have lived in a few places throughout the world and travelled a good bit. One constant for me is Dublin is home. Dublin brings me a sense of belonging here. I love travelling but will always come back here.

About half of it is good, quarter of it would put me off Dublin and a quarter of it has nothing to do with Dublin (Rubberbandits? Father Ted? etc.)
