@DaraghCassidy A big improvement and makes crossing the bottom of the street much safer already. The similar scheme on Francis Street replaced the plastic bollards with planters etc. which I assume will be the case here also. Unfortunately there will be c1 million parking signs.
The Politics and Society exam paper for 2025 contains a quote from Arundhati Roy saying nationalism caused most of the genocides of the last century. How about asking the students about communism's death toll? @CormacLucey@AnMailleach@danobrien20@Casey5122dark
@F1_Jordan Don't care about the brit focus in the commentary (to be expected) - thought the sprint race direction was exceptionally bad though - at a couple of points commentators seemed to be asking why action around the track wasn't being shown.

@MikeMcKillen Odd, they normally daisy chain them (bike locked to bike locked to hoop). If you are dropping one off as a user it looks for a photo as proof it has been locked.
@FootballCliches Good to see someone get off the fence regarding Pascal Gross tho (has played as a defensive-midfielder, right-back, attacking-midfielder, winger, or forward in his career)
