Only a blind fool would observe the winter training ban

DURING a not entirely successful shortcut out of Dublin on Friday afternoon, I found myself driving through Ballymun.

While looking for the “one way out” from Bono’s “Seven Towers” my eyes were drawn to a huge advertisement hanging from the top of an apartment block.

The banner was promoting an offer for rented rooms at €99 per week. Apparently, a room for €396 a month is some type of bargain.
