Hi Tref

The more recent statues of Dublin (such as Molly Malone) have been rechristened by the populace of Dublin with their usual excoriating wit.

Molly Malone has become "the tart with the cart";

The statue of Anna Livia in O'Connell street, representing the River Liffey (a recumbent naked woman with water flowing all over her) is "the hoor in the sewer", or "bidet mulligan" (Biddy Mulligan was another well-known Dublin character);

The millennium clock (a digital clock submerged just below the surface of the river below O'Connell Bridge, counting the time to 2000) became "the chime in the slime";

A statue of two working women with enormous shopping bags became "the hags with the bags";

The statue of James Joyce became known as "useless" (a play on "Ulysses", his great novel)....

and so on...
