The Tart with the Cart

   April 2006    Ireland

  

“Molly Malone, or Cockles and Mussels, is the unofficial anthem of Dublin City in Ireland. It is sung by supporters of Dublin GAA teams and Irish international rugby team. The song tells the tale of a beautiful fishmonger who plies her trade on the streets of Dublin, but who tragically dies young of a fever.”

Yep, this description is scraped from wikipedia, but it pretty much hits the bull´s eye. You can find her at the bottom of Grafton street. That's where Timmok is usually playing his matches on a typical rainy day in Dublin.

clement is clearly losing focus playing Molle Malone in the streets of Dublin...

As you can see, Clement accepted a double – it was almost a pass – from my point of view – but I think they only played for love...
