Have you seen the bouncy bridge over the canal in Dublin today?

In the words of R Kelly: “Bounce bounce bounce bounce bounce bounce bounce.”

DUBLIN HAS A new bridge today. An inflatable bridge, to be exact.

It crosses over the Grand Canal at Mespil Dock, where it appeared this morning.

The bridge is part of a PR wheeze by HB Ice Cream, which says that it’s Ireland’s “first inflatable pedestrian bridge”.

And yes, it’s bouncy. You can literally bounce across the canal.

They say they’re also giving out free ice cream to anyone who tweets a pic of the bridge, FYI. It’s open until 6.30pm.

Next step: bouncy bridge over the Liffey, carrying assorted delivery lorries and the 46a bus. Your move HB.
