    Ok basically one person posts a picture of a town or city from Ireland and the person who guesses correctly gets to post their picture..I'll go first

    Rules are as follows, only 3 guesses per post, pictures can be any type, ie aerial or ground view

    By the way lets keep this in the republic to make it a bit easier
