    What's the fine for littering? 3000? Seeing as they have admitted to it and they know who did it, they should be hit with that now!

    You could still make it out in the 80's. My Dad had me thoroughly convinced that the 'brits out' slogan was the work of specially trained sheep.....

    I was 50/50 on how to go on this vote... but these muppets that defaced the mountain has made me decide to vote YES, together with with the crap their people who were on Ocean FM this morning were spouting. I hope there are no road accidents on that road in the next few weeks due to people looking at their NO ..... If there is any --- that's when the NO SLIGO people should be contacted for a radio interview!

    Nice as it is to have more Yes voters, that really isn't how you should be deciding how to vote.

    Call me a cynic, but I highly doubt either was veering towards "No" to begin with.

    Have you not heard all the people saying that they were undecided, but they'll now vote a certain way due to how one side or another has behaved? It was the same during the marriage referendum.
