Rock above the train station with Waterford/Kilkenny Flag

    Does anyone know how on earth someone keeps changing the flag on the rock face above the train station.

    It was changing almost everyday for a while

    One day it's a Kilkenny flag the next Waterford.

    It looks a sheer cliff face so how is it being done?

    I know you can get up to that area by going through the woods to the side of Jury's or through the back of the golf course but surely scaling down to that rock face would be a bit crazy???

    They should paint a Wile E Coyote-style tunnel entrance on it so we can all have a laugh at the cats trying to take a short-cut home from work :)

    But what if the people painting the KK flag keep doing it over and over too :)
    Black and orange are much harder colours to keep covering then white & blue ;)

    Also there is the issue of trespassing. Who's rock is it anyways?

    But we have no need to ever go to Kilkenny Town, they have to come to our city to work / brag about the fact that the only thing that goes on in Kilkenny apart from inbreeding is 15 lads running around a field with a stick after a ball
