Bernie - Comeallye talk

Bernie is a charming and hilarious character who's worked on Moore St for nearly 60 years. Here she tells stories of Brendan Behan, street characters, Hollywood stars and chocolate. Moore street is an old market street in Dublin, which has lately changed dramatically from a very 'old dub' street to a lively multicultural one. It has a reputation for charming and witty stall owners, but even among them Bernie is well known for her fast talk and wit. See more stories at www.storymap.ie

Old dublin is really fading away at least we have the memories ❤❤

God Bless that woman. 💔 her child dying in her arms. My 16 year old daughter died in Nov 2018. I know what she means about talking to her child everyday - I do the same. My daughter and I took a trip to Dublin for her 16th birthday in Aug 2018 💜

Bernie You have had an aul Dub in London Laughing ! My Mother grew up with The Kennedy's who where on Moore street too . Great Memories of Hard Working People out in all weather helping Poor People feed large Families , God Bless Them All .

[@lowwatthalo1654]

The "casual racism" is just sharp banter, she's just winding him up. There isn't any hatefulness in her. She'd be the first to help anyone. These older traders grew up in the heart of Dublin so they knew tough times that gave them a tough skin. The slagging they can dish out does be merciless, but just for the craic. You'd find no kinder souls anywhere.

Well Bernie, it did get worse. None of your like in Dublin anymore. The place is a soulless dump, destroyed by greed, neglect, and idiots. I don’t know if you’re still around but I hope wherever you are that you are in peace. God bless.

[@ewanfarrell2687]

Anyone know if she's still alive?

[@RepublicIcon]

It's so sad to see what Moore st has turned into these last few years. It's almost a No-Go area. Roma gypsy gangs everywhere. All the Irish traders and shops gone. African & Chinese brothels line the street nowadays. The heart off Dublin has been ripped out of it. 😢

[@speakertreatz]

instead of blaming everyone but the Irish, remember why all these ethnic groups took up shops in Moore Street. Because they were offered very cheap short term leases. The whole area was to be demolished from the Carlton Cinema on O'Connell Street back to Moore St with all those shops and streets inbetween to be flattened and forgotten, very similar to what happened with the Ilac. And with Temple Bar, when artists were offered low rent accomodation on a short term basis because the whole area had been bought by CIE with the intention of putting a bus station there.

[@seamrog3593]

Where are the Irish? Story map Dublin celebrates the Irish genocide "which has lately changed dramatically from a very 'old dub' street to a lively multicultural one. " Traitors want you to think killing off the Irish is a good thing, it's not. It's a crime against humanity.

[@bid84]

Where are the Irish? They emigrated, there’s millions of us around the world. So when you think about it your point is ironic. Times change.
