Cork man is alive and well.

Alive certainly, well, not so sure.

I've been to Cork several times by overnight ferry from Swansea in Wales. As you leave the ferry and drive up the slip road to join the main road there is a sign on the other slip road leading down to the ferry which states 'If you are reading this sign, you are on the wrong side of the road. Turn around'. Drivers driving down the slip road to the ferry obviously can't see it.

The thing is that when disembarking the ferry it is impossible to leave by any other road that the one that goes to the main road.

Strange place, Cork.

You'll have to have a look at the 'Rewilding' thread to find the answer.

Beaver where I live and else where in the uk, has an erm..... how to put it, a very different meaning.

Have had a look on street view but can't see the sign.
It's good to keep traffic on one simple road though- ports can be confusing places.

Aggressive little monsters that they are....

[Analogue Boy]

That’s the thing about a cause of death. It’s always one thing or an otter.

So this is a Cork man and a Florida man in one person? I doubt another will come along for a while.

R.I.P., Aidan. You sound like a great fellow.

That, I can understand .

 

[Sollywos]

That, I can understand .

Me too!!! It brings out violent hatred in me more than anything else! Smothering with the pillow is very tempting but divorce is less emotionally damaging in the long run and doesn't lead to time in jail!
btw I'm only semi joking
