This Irishing of a road sign outside Galway is a cut above the usual defacement #SpéirGorm #SpeirGorm
Photo taken from a car (I was a passenger). The main road curves left and quickly out of sight behind a bushy wall. Immediately on the left, before the curve, is a narrow local road perpendicular to the main road. At the junction is a red octagonal road sign that says "STOP". Someone has painted two letters above the word, in the same white sans-serif capitals, so that the sign now reads "AH STOP".
