    The Sperrins for me, quiet country roads, great for cycling or walking on warm summer evenings. Unspoilt.

    How is the All Ireland part of this competition going to run?

    Provincial Championships (to find each province's best landmark), Champions League style groups or straight knock out?

    This. This process has been arduous enough! Random Number Generator will decide the matches in an open draw. One on one.

    Not sure if either is particularly noteworthy, but I've seen the Tinnies a few times driving up to Derry, so I guess that makes it a good landmark.

    The Tinnies for me, a good landmark and more noticable than the fort

    Can't see either going much further into the tournament, but I'll go for The Tinnies

    The Folk Park. Its well worth a visit.

    Dunno what's in the next Tyrone round, but if it isn't, Let The Dance Begin ("The Tinnies") in Strabane should be there.
    It is :)

    The Tinnies have not seen anything like it evet i like the idea of the seasonal changes with it. Keeps the landmark interesting and would lift your spirits i bet.

    I like the tinnies. If you’re driving by them then the fort will just look like another bunch of trees but the tinnies are great to look at and unique.

    The Tinnies


    Jaysus, lads, yiz are awful early risers around here!!!


    Just got in in time to vote for my nomination (was I the only one??) - the sheer size of them, the fact that you're more often than not stuck in a traffic jam so can properly admire them, and how they dress them up for the current circumstances (Hallowe'en at the moment, PPE all summer, GAA colours during the season etc) is brilliant.

    John Mullane actually could count as a landmark for Waterford.

    I'd vote for it. As second choice. Behind my nomination here. :)

    :eek:

    Waterford hurler. One of the top hurlers of the past 20 years. Scored a hat-trick in the Munster Final of 2003 against Cork (from where the famous photo of him giving the finger to Cork fans) but Waterford still lost. Helped them to the final in 2008, but they lost and so didn't break their 50-year duck (now a 60-year duck)

    Possibly best known for the 'I loves me county' interview after getting sent off (in the same match, I think?)

    I'm starting to think I'll never see it in my lifetime. That 2008 final was soul destroying.

    John Mullane FTW Loves Me County

    Yeah 2008 was Heartbreaking and recently the 2017 AI final in which we had our chances of winning but didn't go our way. Let's hope the future is brighter for Waterford hurling

    Waterford is coming up in the next wee while. You’ll have to bare with me as I’m posting from my phone. If any images are bogey/not showing tell me and I’ll amend. Thanks
