Bewleys, Dublin 4, now Liberty Hall. It takes the breath away. Wasn't there a rumour last year the RDS Showgrounds Ballsbridge was also being thought about for "development". The Abbey site is now deemed "unsatisfactory"?! and talk of building a new theatre "out of town".
Artist friends - visceral Dubliners - are forming a new diaspora from Scottish crofts to Brazilian rainforest in advance of the bulldozers. Are some of us crazy to think there is more to life and experience than investing patches of earth in specific locations with extraordinary value? The concept of burning money is not new; that's what we're doing in terms of imprudent energy-consumption. But burying money! A resurgence of the pantheistic pre-Christian religious rite perhaps?
