The famous Nollaig Shona Duit sign has officially returned to Grafton Street after being moved to Wicklow Street last Christmas.
The Nollaig Shona Duit (Happy Christmas to you) sign was a regular sight over Grafton Street during the festive season until it was controversially replaced last year by one which read 'Welcome To Grafton Quarter'.
