4:12 pm March 5, 2012 Bodger

Taken literally minutes ago at Stephen’s Green, Dublin.

What are these people promoting?

Lines close at 4.45pm

4.57pm Update: The answer is the launch of Metro Express (a new service which “combines 30mb of broadband and phone for €30″ hence the big ’30′) with Colm Piercy, CEO of Digiweb Group and model Tara O’Farrell.

  God if that’s how they chose to promote it they’ll be getting some sternly worded letters. What a sham.

  And that Sir is what truly makes you an idiot…
  
  Who cares what they’re “promoting”?
  
  Why is Ireland the only place in the world that uses a girl in a bikini on a city street to ‘promote’ some day or other tat?
  
  It’s embarrassing as a nation…

    Fairly sure, Ireland is not the only country in the world that uses scantily clad women to advertise. Our models probably do wear more fake tan than the median.

Looks like the PR person failed to get the permission to take the pics in Stephen’s Green Park on time. The old loop hole of taking them outside the park works every time
