      That is just a fantastic photo.Think it's actually the corner of D'Olier Street and Westmoreland Street.They since moved that statue to O'Connell Street.

      It's now between Middle Abbey and Lower Abbey Street,opposite Eason's bookstore.Again what a great photo !

                        many years ago there was a case in the evening mail about a incident in howth about two men caught commiting a crime of a sexual nature...For many years after the joke was if you drop sixpence in howth, kick it all the way to sutton before you pick it up

                                Used to meet my mot in BD's - mid-week, it was a great place to have a quiet chat.

                                "I followed them up to Grafton St., one evening just for fun,
                                Around be the Mercer Hospital, and into the Bartley Dunnes,
                                Sure I saw them sitting in the corner seat, they were kissing and holding hands.
                                And there he was seducing her, with pints of Babycham"
                                Do what you love - love what you do.
