Might I suggest you do. Birds galore down there, of every race and creed.

What happens down there? Do you just go down there and dig each other’s culture and stuff?

18 million spent to revitalize the baths in Kingstown

local NIMBY @artfoley objected to the pool element of it so there is no actual pool there

Dyane Connor on Twitter: “The Dun Laoghaire baths officially being opened this morning after a 17 year campaign, but without the pool. The council says a seawater pool can be part of future development #baths @rtenews https://t.co/BokRq2dpBF” / Twitter

One of Boyd Barrett’s projects that got him votes from people that would never have otherwise voted for him.

I find it highly ironic that the Baths were originally built by private enterprise. This is often the way with public amenities of course….
