Re: Re: O’ Connell Street

There was definitely a huge structure plonked in the middle of the bridge for something as there’s a picture of it in another pub 🙂 on Talbot St.
Really quite extraordinary – you’d never get that kind of thing today. Suppose these days if you want spectacle you just use fireworks, electronics of inflatable floats. In those days if you wanted big, you had to physically build it.

Saying that, as Frank’s pictures show the French still have their own way of doing things…
