    Whats going on in arthurs quay park? Saw they have two or three cranes and are lowering a few shipping crates into the centre of the park.

    And we just got an email un work to say our fire assembly point has changed until mid august (tis usually the park).

    Anyone have any clue?

    Saw the shipping containers alright. The reason it surprised me was they had three of them stacked on top of each other. Doesn't seem at all safe really.

    Interested to know myself what they are up to.

    Sar you're joking right? :eek:

    i hope the dublin docks arent infringing on 'copyright' then every time a couple of containers fall over, it happens rarely enough, but when it does- its 'art'? :rolleyes:

    and here was me hoping they'd REMOVE the empty tin cans from the park, not bring in bloody oversized ones! :(

    oh dear, they've got this "hired in novelty art" thing all wrong haven't they?
    Limerick needs the "cow in a tree" or something lighthearted, not depressing and industrial.
