Cycling in Dublin City can be scary biscuits with all the double decker buses, loony taxi drivers and big fuck off trucks driving dangerously close to the cycle lanes. So as well as a nifty little system to get you from A to B it’ll also give a huge adrenaline rush when you’re just a whisker away from almost certain death. Bicycles can be hired from 5.30am to 12.30am each day and users must register for either a year-long subscription, costing €10, or a three-day card, costing €2. The first half-an- hour is free of charge while the first hour costs 50c and rises to €6.50 for four hours. If you don’t drop it back within 24 hours, your bank account is automatically debited by €150 (we’re all broke anyway so good luck with getting that!).

When I was at the Bodies exhibition a couple weeks back a fire engine whizzed past with a load of howiyaz inside screaming out the window and I just thought, “What a great idea, why have our brave firefighters risk life and limb when you can use the dregs of society instead”. I pondered over my imaginary tramp fire brigade. The uniforms would be from Penneys with “red hot” printed on the arse of the tracksuit bottoms and I’m sure they’d enjoy sliding down the fireman pole as they’re used to being up it 9  months the year. But this lurid fantasy was not to be, twas the Fire Limo. It featured in some of the papers yesterday and its basically a clapped out  pimped out fire engine used for hen dos, kids parties, debs, etc… It has  sound and lighting, TV screens and a fully uniformed crew. Take a look… Fire Limo.
