Dublin's Statues
The Dublin locals are prone to giving their statues humorous, rhyming sobriquet. These are my three favourites.
Molly Malone - "The Tart with the Cart" aka "The Trollop with the Scallops"
Two Women - "The Hags with the Bags"
Anna Livia, The Spirit of the Liffey - "The Floozy in the Jacuzzi"
