Christmas decorations on high Christmas decorations on Paul Street, Cork a few days before Christmas Day last year.

Internet Cafe The Internet Cafe is that way. Sign is on The South Mall in Cork. PS. GIMP 2.4.1 was released yesterday. It’s a bugfix release!

Dunnes Stores for Better Value The old Dunnes Stores on Patrick’s Street is now only a shadow of it’s former self. All that remains of the building is the front facade and a small portion of the side walls. Construction work on the Paul Street development has levelled most of the back buildings in a…
