    Don't forget the oul '89 brown toyotas, especially on "mart day" :D - who have to practically stop dead to see what everybody is at every inch of a mile or so!

    Sheep - we have no fences round our house at the moment and the sheep have been having a lovely time with my veg n flowers :eek:

    stunning scenery, the best sunsets going, teeny tiny derelict stone cottages that a whole family once lived in somehow - oh I could go on and on, the country rocks, never a dull moment :D

    Yep, them auld ones are a nightmare especially farmers driving at 20mph down a main road holding like 20 cars behind them, i can't stick them especially on long journeys!:mad:

    American tourists taking picture of the most random thimgs us irish country folk take for granted.

    Pubs that actually have a bit of character, and characters inside them.

    Dirty auld Farmers.
    Fly infested homes (attracted to the farmer's smell)

    Pub, Post office, Petrol station, takeaway, newsagents.

    Sh1te on the road, grass down the middle, hairy arses. Men with hair styled by saliva instead of gel or wax. The smell of menopuase among the women.

    Thats disgusting, it ain't like that at all, and since when would a road have grass down the middle of it.:rolleyes::(

    Trees either side of country road.

    Leaves fall off along with other dirt and sh1t and accumulate at the middle of the road forming a riddge of grass.




    Found in sheltered parts of road with trees either side.
    You will notice the ridge stops where there is no shelter on both sides.
