    When loitering alongside the Liffey, You might be aware of a whiffy. Near a Volkswagen car There's a leaky pissoir. Sure the footprints will dry in a jiffy.

    I remember the Cabinetti in Naples Railway Station back in 1977. There was a hole in the floor. 2 chains hung from the roof with hoops on the end. It was quite a trick to get your feet into those hoops!

    Butt Bridge was replaced only in 1932, whereas this version was built in 1879. So not too much help.

    Per the DIB: Butt was Conservative MP for Harwich from May to July 1852, being elected later that year for Youghal, holding the seat until defeated in the election of July 1865; he sat for Limerick from September 1871 until his death. 1879 Also: Home Government Association established at a meeting in May 1870. This initiative developed in part from the ‘Limerick Declaration’ of 1867, signed by a large number of catholic clergy and organised by Richard Baptist O'Brien (qv), dean of Limerick, himself one of Butt's closest political confidants during these years. I don't see any earlier connection to Limerick, so the pic may date from 1871-79?

    Is Mrs Flynn the only [edited] commercial [edited] woman photographer/studio owner we've had in all these years, aside from Elinor Wiltshire? Or am I going soft in my dotage?
