Irish Where am I thread????

pullandbang · 2009-03-26 23:38:28

We have a "Where Am I Thread" running successfully at the moment but what about those of us who are not seasoned world travellers? What about an exclusively Irish "Where am I thread"? All photos must be taken in Ireland........... Any interest?

Sounds like a good idea. There is a similar one going on the Dublin forum - Dublin Picture Game (I hope the folks over there don't mind me putting a link up).

This thread seems to have faded into oblivion so I'm having another go.

Any idea where this is? It's an easy one to see if the Irish version of "Where Am I?" will take flight.
