    I need to buy some Irish flags, preferably 5ft by 8ft but I literally have NO IDEA where in Cork I can buy them. Does anyone know anywhere I can get them?
    Will be really grateful of anyone who can help me out, even if what you suggest is in Dublin or Limerick something, badly needed. Thank you

    Carrolls in Dublin would definitely have some. In Cork I'd try the Hallmark shop in Winthrop Street or somewhere like Mahers or Cummins Sports they should have them.

    They have 3ft by 5ft which is the best I have found, wouldn't have thought it to be so tough!

    Depending on how bad you need it, you could pop into singers corner and see if they will make you one. (might need material but should be availible in the place in the savoy)

    Camping stores often have these. I think I saw them in the camping shop on MacCurtain Street recently.
