You may have noticed the old bottles of wee wee too....

I wonder is there some cottage industry out there filling up old lucozade bottles with urine and throwing them into the sea? I find two or three of them washed up at ennereilly each time I hit the beach. They're a b*st*rd to piece with the sand spike as well.

Come on girls, nobody will fall for that one*.

Perhaps it's some kind of Arklow tradition.

* So, use Harp cans in future.
