#PatIngoldsby was a #Dublin and #Malahide legend. Please consider pledging some funds to this Kickstarter. Essentially it's a means to pre-order this book, but the book will only be produced and published if it receives sufficient pledges.

A picture of the utility box in Clontarf painted in honour of Pat Ingoldsby. It shows a portion of his face, shaded somewhat by a hat that hasn't been painted into the pic. The text at the top says "Pat Ingoldsby" and then "Welcome to his head". In smaller text at the bottom, it reads "Pat Ingoldsby" and "Pat is a multifaceted artist. Poet, playwright, writer, performer ... and ... Not Dead Yet". In the bottom-right corner is the silhouette of a cat, which I suspect is a reference to a long-standing piece of graffiti on a wall not far from where the utility box sits in Clontarf. Within the silhouette is a QR code.
The side of the utility box painted in honour of Pat Ingoldsby in Clontarf. The text at the top reads "Welcome to his head". Under that is a tag or logo of the artist, Urnique, giving the address instagram.com/urnique.steve/. Under that is the text "Poet Playwright Writer Performer TV Presenter Children's Entertainer Disk Jockey Newspaper Columnist Publisher Clontarf Resident"
Sorry to hear today of the death of Pat Ingoldsby #PatsChat #PatsHat . It was always a delight to see him ambling about in Clontarf, chatting with anyone and everyone. I love this tribute to him that was done a few years ago in Clontarf. Long may it stay there (picture taken today, 1st March, 2025).
