dlrcoco waste of money

Here’s a fine example of a waste of money by your local council (dlrcc). Thankfully, I live on the Northside so my policitians are much more professional and efficient!!

The ‘beach’ in question is halfway between Dun Laoghaire and Sandycove. I guess it’s slippery when wet and the rocks are sharp, even when the tide is in. But…why the need for two poles and three signs. And why no anti-vandalism paint?

The upshot is a blot on the landscape (look at the background and this), needless expenditure, and potentially offensive comments to visitors.

    time of the signs.
    is that man walking on water?

    i bet the other sides of the signs are blank!
