I was there too
In early 2005, Winthrop Street was dug up and repaved. I really don’t like the modern surface. Part of it feels slippery, and the middle section is uncomfortable to walk on. Anyone else?

I don’t remember what this dog’s name was, but she was so cute I asked her human dad if I could photograph her. No petting was allowed as she is the typical small dog and isn’t fond of strangers rubbing her. Not surprising really. Would you like giants rubbing your head?

It’s still cold, but following up on my recent photo outside a gelato shop, here’s another one, on the corner of Patrick’s Street and Winthrop Street in Cork.
I love ice cream too, but maybe not enough to eat it on a cold wintery day, outside!

The front of the casino on Winthrop Street is coloured an unusually calming sky-blue or cyan colour. Not the type of colour I’d expect somewhere that wants customers to get excited about losing money to use.
Luckily, Deliveroo uses the same colour and a delivery guy just walked past while I was fishing for a photo!

This was taken in what I believe is the open air bathroom of a popular pub in Cork City. At least it was in September 2013. Anyone recognise it?
