Initially I had suspected that it may have been photo-shopped – a Very good photoshop job I may add! The online version of the paper doesn’t show the unfortunate error, but these things are easily changed. I guess we need somebody in Mayo to confirm if the Mayo Advertiser is indeed talking about ” Massive blow jobs for Belmullet” or “Massive jobs blow for Belmullet”!
Yeah, it’d be interesting to know. The word “blow” might be bit more to the left than it normally would be with this kind of font, but maybe it’s just me being suspicious!
Sadly I had a close look at the image, and it does seem to be a Photoshop jobby. The words aren’t aligned correctly and the print that has come through from the next page doesn’t seem to be continuous. Pity. Cancel the trip. I’ll find my own blow jobs…

Use your Free Bus Pass Grandad and grab the next C.I.E. bus from Dublin town! Alternatively hitch a ride all the way on the N59 (Yes that is the N59, I was sooo wishing it was the N69 because it would have just added a whole new layer to this whole story!). http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=Belmullet,+Mayo&ie=UTF8&z=13&iwloc=A

Ah well it was all an elaborate hoax…at least the editor has had a good sense of humour.
