    You could swap that big X on the road for a tumbleweed and it wouldn't look out of place.

    That's my usual filling station but I didn't recognise it!
    It's strange how different different a place looks when you see it from a different angle.

    I've driven through there hundreds of times, but I'm not sure I'd have recognised it either if I hadn't been the one dropping the pin on google maps!

    It appears that someone is making off with the pub.

    I also thought that was a pub originally but it's just an ordinary house with a satellite dish.
    The other houses look like ordinary buildings also, but the eyes aren't what they used to be...

    It would appear that the artist formerly known as Fred submitted a GDPR deletion request, and then closed his account.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,149 ✭✭✭✭josip


    Why would Fred delete his account now?
    I've long since trawled through it and archived anything that might be of use for guessing his posts :D

    Has Fred left? What the hell!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,149 ✭✭✭✭josip

    Correct. That's the office of the Data Commissioners on the right.

    Fred hasn't left.
    We just haven't put the right picture up yet to entice him back :)

    Is it a place in north Cork by any chance?

    The old alzheimer's is starting to settle in with me I'm sure, but I think I've been trout fishing very near that turn off many years ago.

    Dammit. There's no village in North Cork that fits the bill. Is it a hamlet? :)

    No not a hamlet! The village in North Cork shares the name with the village that's very near the one in question.

    The two Villages are so close that both names are used in the GAA Club!
