I love this country

Some words come to mind when reading the Irish broadsheets this morning. Namely, “couldn’t”, “brewery”, “pissup”, “organise”. Why? Read on.

Galway City Council recently laid down Chinese paving slabs on Eglington Street. Since then, dozens of old people have lost their footing and sustained nasty injuries. Did they polish them with Mr Sheen to make sure? This news comes as no surprise considering the shambolic effort to rejuvenate Eyre Square.

Just when you thought O’Connell Street was starting to take shape, it has returned to looking like its bombsite twin in Galway. And why is there nobody working on these sites after 6pm? I didn’t think office hours applied here. Surely it’s in everybody's interest to get these projects completed as quickly as possible.

To round off this spate of incomprehensible mismanagement, the Luas stop at St. Stephen’s Green is to be ripped up, just one year after the service commenced, in order to widen the platform. GUBU.
