Dublinese on the bridge

Sir, – Driving under an overhead bridge on the Ballybough Road in Summerhill the other day, I noticed a banner headline emblazoned on the bridge with the words “Bleedin’ Rapid” advertising the Dublin Bus airlink express service, followed by “simply connect faster”. I hope the many foreign nationals in our city connect with the semantics! It’s not “bleedin’ obvious to them, I would imagine!

– Yours, etc,

BRENDA MORGAN,

Howth, Co Dublin.
