Re: Re: Dublin Postal Districts

Thanks for making me look like a complete wally. To be honest, I never saw the diagram (map isn’t quite the correct term) before in my life. But I imagine that for a lot of the city’s dwellers the diagram means a great deal.

I wonder what Ballyfermot did to deserve being isolated there, all by its lonesome. It reminds me a bit about Leitrim. When all the other counties were named, whatever was left over they called it Leitrim.

I also notice the agressive looking ‘spike’ shape of 6W, that was fought over tooth and nail. I wonder how many poor dwelling owners found themselves left out of the spike?

I didn’t realise either how large D4 is. It being so exclusive, you would expect it to be the little ‘island’ rather than Ballyfermot. Goes to show how little I know.
