BENCHMARKS continued
These two are located on a pillar at the western end of the Gallic sounding Montpelier Hill just a stone's throw away from that enclave of Dublin 8 that is situated north of the Liffey. They are even closer to the ancestral home of one of Ireland's premier broadcasters. (No! Not Gaybo. But here's a clue : - his father used to be the elephant keeper in Dublin Zoo.) And just 'round the corner from there is the ancestral home of the best sound-operator to grace the studios of the RTE Radio Centre, the colleague formerly designated as M.C.
Above: This one has been circled in paint at some time, leading Benchmarker to conclude that another benchmarker is on the hunt out there.
Above: Strictly speaking this one may not be a true benchmark, but with Benchmarker committed to recording 1,001, he accepts all the help he can get. And so, it goes in!
