Reply To: A few queries about the recent docklands developments….

Dublin still has some way to go, the city can look brilliant in some lights and terrible in others….sometimes it is Embarrassing walking with foreign friends down O’Connell Street – I find myself trying to explain that the street is “due” to be redeveloped (blah, blah, blah) – the redevelopment is taking far to long…i’m not sure why i would feel embarrassed, its probably something to do with the whole Irish inferiorty complex thing…Irish people still feel like they have to proove something and in fairness we had to work hard to obtain some sort of respect from other countries (and obviously the country next store springs to mind).
