245/365


Sorry, but this is the lamest Christmas tree ever. I was on the LUAS one day and I heard this dad pointing out the special O'Connell Street Christmas tree to his son. The kid was like, where? Where? My sentiments exactly. It looks like a lawn ornament and as you can see, it's pretty much invisible during the day.

  1. Ha ha!! Well now, it will never outstrip the structure a few yards away in the ridiculous and stupid stakes! At least the Christmas tree did not involve €4m in taxpayers' money.

  2. True enough. I guess putting it next to the Spire was a good way to sequester all the ugliness in one place!

  3. My mom emailed me this comment and Wes and I thought it was pretty accurate:

    Just looked at your past pictures again and realized that I now know how your "metal" Christmas tree was made. Looks like someone visited a local prison and rolled up all the razor wire from around the fence tops, made them into big balls and stacked them into the shape of a tree! A very ugly tree!
