If you want to meet Tubridy, just hang around in Dun Laoghaire for about 20 minutes. He skulks around feeding off recognition and selfie requests(his only sustenance apart from RTE grade cocaine). I once bumped into him at a parking meter and pretended not to know who he was in front of his daughter. It was like sprinkling salt on a snail as he recoiled and withered back into his range rover.

I used to work in that black hole on the third floor of Dun Laoghaire shopping center. I was paid €4.20 per hour and all I had to do was float around picking up space litter, used heroin needles and the spirits of people who used to work in the shopping center.

I’m a new foreign citizen residing in Dun Laoghaire for the past 2 years. Thanks so much for this clip, I finally got to understand its mysteries. Like the DL Shopping Centre’s 3rd floor... god what a scary place.
@joshuaW5621 Жыл бұрын
Perhaps the biggest mystery surrounding Dun Laoghaire would be what happened to the shopping centre. It used to be filled with active shops, but now one of the 3 entrances is blocked and the entire third floor is empty. It’s pretty sad because I have so many fun memories there.

Haha love it! Great Job on poor old Dun Laoghaire! Unfortunately, it has changed so much and is still going downhill every time I get to go there! It was all good till the big H hit it! Everything was so cool there when I was growing up! My Grandparents lived in the Gate Lodge of the People's Park When the public baths and swimming pool when it was still open! I moved in 2001, not for the first time! It had gone downhill so much that it was sad! The fact that the first Documentary on Heroin by Channel 4 (which is a bit weird that they had to come over from the UK? to do this! ) The documentary showed one of the downfalls of Dun Laoghaire! Take care! Thanks

No it's Laoghaire's Fort. Dún means fort and Laoghaire is the owner of the fort. It was called King's Town cos George the somethingth of England visited in the 1800's and his people were writing the place names at the time. Wiki :"The town's name means "fort of Laoghaire".[16] This refers to Lóegaire mac Néill (modern spelling: Laoghaire Mac Néill), a 5th century High King of Ireland, who chose the site as a sea base from which to carry out raids on Britain and Gaul. Traces of fortifications from that time have been found on the coast, and some of the stone is kept in the Maritime Museum"
