When did you last encounter a Garda checkpoint?

Just interested to know with all the Garda checkpoints in the media when did you last encounter a checkpoint whilst driving. Myself it was the week before Christmas.

Almost 7 years driving, about 5 or 6 Garda, and 1 PSNI. PSNI and one Garda asked for Licence and a bit of chat, one or two check points just checked the windscreen, rest waved through.

Most of driving is around the NW and both sides of border area.
