    Morning,
    Sometimes you see like 2 wires running across the road parallel about 40cm apart? What are they for?

    Came across maybe 4 sets of these within 1km yesterday, they are quite common

    Back in my teenage years, was camping down in Roscommon. There was a bunch of girls in a tent close by, who wouldn't have anything to do with us.

    On a ramble down the road, we took a "Loose Chips" sign, blanked out the C, and hung it on the front of the girls' tent.

    We were the funniest guys in the whole camp site.

    Carry on.
