Isn't the photo from the UK? It certainly looks like somewhere in the UK (street signs etc).

It was sent over from a friend in the UK (don't mean much, but anyway) and subject was 'Irish Contractors' and came with this:

Take a moment to spot the problem

(insert pic)

Just so you know - they're putting bollards up to stop cars ramming the sports bar.

but what about their van.....

I thought 'Spot the mistake' would be more apt ... :D

Maybe I spotted it because I work in Highway maintenance!

To be fair to the two guys there - they've provided their workmates, guys from the council and rival subbies with years' worth of p*** taking ammunition, and have therefore contributed to the sum total of human happiness :thumbup:

It's definitely the UK.

Style of street signs and bollards is a dead giveaway.

Apart from the obvious bollard mistake, the mistake that the picture shows is 2 workers actually working without the supervisor present.

Photoshop. Look at the base of the bottom right bollard.

It's a possibility, but if you look at the other bases all you seem to see is the rough concrete footing with the final reinstatement yet to come. There's a chance they've just reinstated the base of that bottom right hand one and are mixing up the slop to finish off the rest.

I'd like to think this is a genuine shot, as that way I don't need to feel so bad about some of my own DIY grey moments... :eek:

I did wonder, but agree with Karl and like to think it's real as we ALL have them DIY moments ... :D
