There's a story to me getting this poster (which I think I've told here before) but telling it again after realising Renua blocked me!
After the 2016 General Election, a friend who lives in Dublin Bay North kindly acquired this poster for me. https://twitter.com/electionlit/status/1287810177132003329

...I had remarked that Renua material would become a collectors item as they wouldn't last long.
So anyway after the election my friend told me she had the poster and to pop over and get it.
Tragically, a few weeks later, my friends Mam died.

So I went after work to pay my respects to my friend and her family. Whilst I was there, I was told that the poster was out the back for me if I wanted to take it. I felt given the circumstances and that they were expecting visitors over the next few days that I would take it
So I said my goodbyes and left to get the bus home with this Terence Flanagan poster under my arm.
I got on the bus and to say I was getting strange looks was an understatement. Given the posters size I had to stand downstairs on the bus with the poster perched in front of me.

As I was on the bus home I got a call from my wife to say that she was running late and would I go direct to the parent teacher meeting in my daughters school.
Forgetting for a minute that I had the poster, I naturally agreed.

So now, I was going to have to go to a parent teacher meeting with a Terence Flanagan poster under my arm.....
Meeting teachers and parents and trying to explain myself....

I got off the bus and walked into the car park of my daughters school. I was getting quite odd stares.
I was thinking that I better stash the poster until after the parent teacher meeting, as aside from it being a Terence Flanagan poster, it was just too big and cumbersome ...

As I was scouting the area looking for a good hiding place what did I see only my wife driving in. So luckily I was able to put the poster in the car boot and not have it at the parent Teacher meeting.
Anyway that's how I got my Terence Flanagan poster
