Queuing for Gorbys

A bunch of lads queuing for Gorbys on Oliver Plunkett Street, Cork in 2007. Nightclubs are due to open soon again.

2,399 new cases of Covid-19 today. Even with vaccination I think we can expect a huge surge in about two weeks. I’ll be glad if I’m wrong.

The site of the Elysian

The Elysian now stands where this large empty space was in 2005. There used to be a post office there, but unfortunately I never got a photo of it before it was demolished. Anyone?

Off in the distance you can see the chimneys of old industries that are now long gone.

Three Spires of Cork City

Holy Trinity Church, St. Nicholas Church, and St. Fin Barre’s Cathedral in one photo from October 2005. Also included if you look carefully are the College of Commerce, the now demolished tax office on Sullivan’s Quay and off in the distance the County Hall.
