Re: Re: Dun Laoghaire Plage

Mollox,
I was in Brum yesterday and they also are going down the beach route – at a cost of £50k. See

I have no problem with the creation of a beach, it is the suitability of the location that I have the issues with. If one is to be built by DLRCC, a breakwater extending westward from the existing pharbour at Sandycove would make a lot more sense – that position is protected from all points of the compass, would give far more shoreline, ease congestion and be cleaned by the tides. Personally, looking at the vast expanses of flesh on view in DL today, and comparing that with what is on view in Paris, free burkas from DLRCC would be better advised.
