Back home for Christmas. Delighted to see this sign is still up nine years later (the shop never opened). I missed rural Ireland

  2. It looks like it’s sliding into the ground. Our own Tower of Pisa perhaps.

  4. Living abroad made me realise that Irish people don’t actually *live* in our towns and villages. They are all deserted after 5pm as people flock back to their one-off houses in the hinterlands. Compare to how rural villages in France and Spain where families would live above the commercial units and bring life to the place.

  7. You’re reading it wrong. It means it’s only open Septembers at 20:15 … Ok it was funny in my head.

  8. Ah but you can now have the “Craic agus Ceoil” a couple doors up

  13. There’s a sign in my local small town stating that there’s a shopping centre opening in Autumn 2007! This shopping centre did actually open (behind schedule AFAIK) but only stayed open for a few years before closing down.

  15. I used to holiday in Creeslough as a teenager and there was a convenience store up there that was closed for renovations or something but the sign on the door said convenience store, closed for renovations, sorry for the inconvenience. Always thought it was gas.
