    Passed it on the road to Limerick about a month ago. It was driving towards Limerick, somewhere on the Limerick side of Charleville.

    Wasn't quick enough to flip the bird :(

    Passed it this morning on the road to Blackpool. The driver seemed to enjoy my moon... ;-)

    Like the original poster asked - noone has any idea when the images go live?
