Cork ~ Statio Bene Fida Literus!
Comments(0)
I see we have attained the distinction of having the dirtiest city in Ireland!
(I guess we can’t sing ‘Beautiful City …. my home by the Lee’ anymore? We could try ‘Pollutiful City, green and so smelly, pollutiful City my home by the green Lee’. We’d have a devil of a time getting the words to rhyme but what the hey it’s worth a piece of paper!)
Poor old Cobh is the dirtiest town in Ireland …. must be all that slag and pollution in the harbour etc. I don’t see John Gormley running to clean it up. Only guy with guts to stand up to him was John Mulvihill Snr.
Cavan is named the cleanest place in Ireland ….. where? 
Galway comes second.
Celebration time …. Limerick is litter free! Woo hoo to them and rat-a-tat! 
Waterford has no litter either ….
They must be shipping it to Cork!
Dublin has the ‘rare auld’ occurance of litter at ‘times’ ….. being moderately littered.
Now don’t you knock Cavan! One of my closest friends lives there!
Oh dear. The other cities in Ireland can have their grimy parts but Cork is unique in having them in the city centre. Even a slight detour off Patrick St or the South Mall will have you sampling the delights of some really dodgy & dirty looking buildings.
That said I do find Dublin to be far dirtier. Ever taken a trip out to Dunsink Lane?
Baion ~ moi? …. take the p*&%% out of Cavan? Never! I’ll never grin at Cavan again!
Gaiusc ~ It may be the ‘real’ capital but I’ve always found it to be anything but litter free. The Corporation can’t be blamed …. they’re always out brushing/cleaning/washing …. but to no avail … it seems we love to drop de paper wherever it please us.
Need a shopping trolley? Try the Lee!
It’s not the Cities that are dirty, its the people who drop the litter who are!
