What's this sign for ?

Some help here http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2056232089
see bullet 10

OP, try describing the sign using old-fashioned words.

What colour is it? What's on it? What's it attached to?

(My guess is that it's one of the "CP 4" style signs that appeared aroud the docks area shortly before the emergency response exercise earlier this year. But that's a guess based soley on my crystal-ball's view of what was in your head. Could be quite wrong.)

The suspense is terrible. I do hope it will last.

8 hrs in, excellent suspense . . well worth the read

Well, rvp I'd imagine, stands for rendezvous point. Not certain about cp

Some thing will happen here involving Christopher Plummers great grandson.
The alertness level is luminous orange.
Ye have been warned

im guessing command post. Probably to do with the oil tanks.

Its to do with the major emergency plan for the city.

RVP = rendevous point
CP = control point

If you want to know more about what they mean, suggest volunteering with your local Civil Defence organisation, they'll give you training.

Yep. There was a training exersize recently at the docks, Lough Atalia was closed off, and I guess this point was established for the Emergency teams.

Yeah, they are at various places around the docks.

If that's CP6, then you can pretty much guarantee that there are CP1 ... CP5 around. Possibly even a map of 'em all buried deep in the council's website.

(OT: "Padraig's Corner" has a nice ring to it. Perhaps they should extend the footpath there, and put up a statue of himsellf!)

I want to reserve a seat in the beer garden on fine days :-)
