The Botanic Gardens are to the north of the city centre.

This house was designed by Saint Ludwig for his sister in the 1920's, its a bauhaus shape with incredible doors. I am delighted anyone in Dublin / Wicklow / Galway is interested in a man I consider the greatest mind of the 20th century. And I am in tears laughing at the so-called key word chain ' Philosophy, Wittgenstein, the unutterable ineffable', thought beyond words and........Phibsboro. Thank you whomever you all are!

Still, no doubt McQuaid would have approved with Spain being both Catholic and Fascist at the time. Not like those Yugoslavians, putting bishops in jail and what have you.

And thanks Sean. Actually, the only game played that winter (1948-9) was a friendly against Spain. The crowed was over 48,000 in Dalymount- mainly due to the fact that the fans were completely starved of a game all winter. Thanks copernicus for the comments. And thanks Sean.
