Clearly this woman was in such a desperate hurry to have her message heard, that she didn’t even have time to add the ‘e’ in please. Obviously her warm, fuzzy, maternal feelings overtook her.
Hughes & Hughes, Marine Road, Dun Laoghire
Anyone in the Dun laoghaire area will know the lovely, shiny H&H store closed (along with the other branches) couple of months back, but the following scrawl on the shop window made me smile the other day. Yes Sir, books are indeed a community service (spoken like a true Librarian):
Molesworth Street, April 30th 2010
Not quite graffiti so maybe I’m cheating here, but it was too good to pass up. Posted onto the side of a parking ticket machine, in the perfect spot for some sight-seeing of Leinster House. (And yes that is the edge of my umbrella to the left of the shot – oops!)
Glasthule, April 2010
Nothing exceptional to say the least, but a nice uplifting thought for the day (and God knows we need it in these days of the BaNAMA Republic):

Glasthule village, Sunday 7th March
So it seems the lovely people of Glasthule have so little much money that they can’t afford to pay to get their waste disposed of are giving away free furtniture no less. This was lovingly left in Glasthule village this morning, with an infinitely cute ‘Take me’ sign. Nothing unusual, until, that is, some witty soul subsequently came along and thoughtfully furnished said table with the signature of the owner – no less than Killiney’s finest, Bono.
TCD Arts Block February 2010
Ha, some ‘educated’ student thinks she can outwit everyone by using the old ‘this is in a foreign language when really it’s in English trick’ (The kids and their irony these days…), only to be out-witted by some fancy Spanish student keen to enlighten any gullible readers out there.
UCD Talent
It seems standards are dropping right across the board in UCD. This one’s from a few months back in the James Joyce Library toilets. (Apologies for the quality – toilet lighting does not good photos make):
