    Hi all, I'm trying locate this billboard:
    206371_10150256436698294_92630898293_9123428_1215535_n.jpg
    It should be located in or around Galway city. I drove around the weekend before last, but couldn't find it anywhere.
    If you come across it in your travels please let me know where it is!

    @TheCosmicFrog: I did! So I'd like to see it if it's still up!

    @fend: I've no idea - I'm hoping to have a good look around for it again at the weekend. I'll check it out, thanks.

    OP; tell the truth; did you really use an N*?

    If so, how did you manage to keep it working for long enough to take the picture???

    And was it any good at taking pictures of racing cars in Ballyvaughan yesterday?

    @daithi1970: Thanks - I'll have a look!

    @Fey!: Should've known you'd be on here!! Yep, it really was taken on an N8. I must say, it makes a decent camera - I was impressed with it. Ye did very well yesterday to get the three runs in despite the late start! I was sick I wasn't driving - I love that hill. It has to be the finest bit of tar in the country. Said hi at one stage but you were under pressure!

    @Miss_F: Do you mean why do I want to know where the billboard is? Because I can't find it, I've never had a photo on a billboard before, so I would like to see it.

    Hi,
    congrads on it. Can I ask how you were approaced to take the pics (a marketing company I know, but how did the choose/find out about you), just curious.
    Do you have more of the pics that you took uploaded somewhere that we can see?

    I've read and followed Ronan Palliser who took the Cork photos.

    Cheers,
    Pa.

    I think i saw it on a bus shelter on the road at the back of Briarhill Dunnes.
    The road that leads down to the NCT centre.
    Hope that helps

    @amiable: thanks for that, I'll have a look.

    @dineenp: Stephen, who covered Dublin, passed my details to the PR company. Some of the other photos are available here.

    Bantaman; if I see it I'll send you a photo of it!

    I saw you dad at the weekend, but didn't spot yourself. As for pressure, I was too busy doing the barbeque!

    Great picture by the way.

    I guess I must've missed it - I still can't find it anywhere. Thanks for all the tips anyway!

    @Fey!: Thanks for that! Didn't see any BBQs around on Sunday morning! :)
