I know you don’t normally do this….My friend Aleksandra had her motorbike stolen from her home in Terenure [Co Dublin] – it’s her only mode of transport – she imported it from Poland earlier this year, so hopefully it’d be less common and easier to spot by bikers. It’s a Zippy ZV, reg number 132 D 1350. Thanks.”

Anyone?

This sign has been irritating us for years, it’s in the car park at Dunnes Stores [at an unspecified location, possibly in Wicklow].  I reckon Google Translate was used to get the Irish for this sign. It literally translates as “look correct” instead of “look right” – Appalling.

Do you know a carelessly-spelt Irish sign? Carelessly-spelt Irish signs to broadsheet@broadsheet.ie marked ‘Carelessly-Spelt Irish Signs’.

Unshaven?

Careless?

A bit Mutt and Jeff?

Named after the martyr?

“You dropped your wallet on Merrion Square [Dublin] his evening while cycling a Dublin Bike. I picked it up but didn’t catch you because you were on a bike and I was not (also, I am slow and chasing you in work shoes while wearing a suit was very unedifying). You also appear to be hard of hearing because I was shouting at you. I might be slow but I am not quiet. Anyway, your wallet is intact as are its contents and cash and it can be collected just off Merrion Square tomorrow. I’ll drop it in to the Gardai at lunchtime if no contact is made through Broadsheet.
