@realBobbyHealy@lorcanmcardle Luas is at capacity . Traffic is a mess in the area . Infrastructure can't handle current population never mind more . The old Dundrum centre should be used to develop a village square . Give Dundrum it's village back . By all means build apartments but at ab appropriate scale
@dmcambrois@MarkLucan1 This is completley at DCC's door. I think urban Ireland (not just Dublin) has an odd relationship with the GAA. I think they take it for granted...matches bring in crowds etc but there is very little effort put in to maximise it or enhace the experience.
The plan to turn the GPO into retail and office space is disaster. We have ripped out enough buildings and turned them into retail and office space that looks like anywhere else in the planet. GPO should be a cultural centre. A space for artists to meet and create. #GPO
@Mick_O_Keeffe Not a fair comparison. The children's hospital not a Greenfield site...had to dig down quite a lot in tight confines while keeping the existing hospital running. It will be by the end of it ridiculously expensive but no point comparing it with projects that are very different
@dmcambrois@KCsixtyseven There are very few bands I'd bother seeing in a big stadium, much prefer vicar street, whelans etc. . Sound is much better and you can actually see the band . you are not just watching tv. Having said that I have had some great evenings standing in a field watching great bands .
@Dominiho7 And yet they make millions from these big shows. They consistently fail to provide a service that is fit for purpose for shows with big demand..despite the fact they can control when that demand comes. #Ticketmaster ...bring back the days of queueing in person!
@PlayerGaelic I am finding it one of more difficult aspects to get right at u14 level. You have inside forwards who just are drawn to the ball all the time...then alternatively others who make great runs and understanding spacing but the ball isn't coming in or is coming in too late.
Moved into a new (old) house a few weeks ago. Lots to do, getting hot water, heating working, furniture moved etc. However at least we have the priority items sorted. Thanks to @MMurphySports for the quick delivery!
@byrne_padraig@fleadhcheoil Great fleadh brilliant organisation..but not enough pub sessions on. Pubs more interested in paying bands to play. Musicians travel from all over the country to play in sessions at the fleadh. Didn't seem to be catered for enough. #Fleadh24
Heading to Wexford for @fleadhcheoil . Where are the best places for sessions? Hearing that a lot of places have paid bands on so musicians struggling to find places to play. #Fleadh24
@Jennings18Karl@mar2vickers@Cathal_Dennehy I thought Femke Bol looked very tired lining up for that race , just looked worn out on the start line.Wouldn't be surprised if she had COVID.
@ciananbrennan Some dodgy estate agents around. We were bidding on a house down to the last two. Estate agent then dropped in the info that in three months time . that then drove bidding up again. Turns out it was a lie..the date of vacancy wasn't for another 6 months
Loving the Olympics coverage @RTEsport but I wish you wouldn't commentate over the medal presentations. Let us hear the stadium announcers introduce the athletes and the crowd reaction. It would be nice to get a sense of the atmosphere
@Camogiecoach @PlayerGaelic My experience in Dublin is that it is still happening at u14..not as often as u13 ..but we have had games down in div 9/10 etc where opposition are clearly playing lads from their div 2/3 teams and winning by 30+ points ..really benefits nobody.
@Seamus60 @hughcahill7 Some of that is cultural though and not necessarily down to how cities are run. Japanese people simply don't litter as much. I don't know if it's a greater civic mentality but they tend to follow the rules
