A Garda Air Support Unit crew spotted that the fire on Bray Head has revealed an “EIRE” sign dating from the Second World War.

The gardai can manage to find an old WWII Eire sign, but they lost a 12 foot blood-splattered gate in the Sophie Du Plantier case. Incredible.
You should post that one in to the Irish Times letters page
Spot on!
It appears someone did post it into the Irish Times, and it wasn’t me:
Sir, – The gardaí can find a massive 70-year-old Éire sign painted on Bray Head, yet manage to lose a large blood-spattered gate in the Sophie Toscan du Plantier case.
How can they remain neutral in this matter? – Yours, etc,
ULTAN Ó BROIN,
Blackrock, Co Dublin.
Except it says IRE. Truth be known “the best fans in the world” did it in 1990.
No, you can see the first E: it’s just a different colour ad harder to see.
Did they have planning permission? Why wasn’t this graffiti removed? Mind you, it’s Bray…
Ah you gave it a good go Airey but you’re no Ollie Cromwell.
The position of top troll is filled but maybe BS will keep your details on file.
Adore these. I’ve been trying to seek out some recorded anecdotals from Luftwaffe pilots on what they made of them.
