    Just came across this yoke dumped in a laneway in St Columbanus estate in Windy Arbour, just off Dundrum Road.



    If anyone is interested in giving it a good home, PM me and I'll give you the exact location.

    Damn it..saw this too late and thought someone would have snapped it up.
    The missus loves gambling machines with this would green light the way for many more machines that she couldn't give out about.

    Why too late? It may well be still there.

    T'was filmed on Friday, on my cheapo camera which resets to 1/1/2008 every time.

    Final update - it's still there this morning. If it's still there tomorrow morning, I'll report it to the litter warden.

    Ignore it, its a scam. The machine actually contains a midget (or little person for the PC brigade) who hops out when you bring the machine home and raids your fridge (only the lower shelves obviously).

    Id be surprised if it isn't skip fodder, hard to see someone throwing a working machine out.

    got this from the lane earlier... had to do the lock in to get it open ..the coin mech was still in it and the note mech aswell...both set for dollars...not power going to it at all prob left out in the rain... so think ill take the front of it off and make a wall hanging out of it ... doesnt seem fit for much else...

    Sorry to here its a crock of sh1te.
    But in a way I'm chuffed as it makes me feel better I didn't get of my lazy ass all day sunday to have a look.
    There must be something you can make from it other than a glorified wall hanging.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,147 ✭✭✭CathalDublin


    Any proper photos of it?
    Do you think its beyond repair?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 799 ✭✭✭Logical_Bear
