    There is a history here of ridiculous things getting delivered so if that had made it to Ireland I’d say the postie would have done the business.

    There was a lad a few years back that sent increasingly obscure addresses to see what would get delivered and documented it for fun. He called it “Me V’s An Post”.

    One included a flippin’ jigsaw for the address (which was delivered). Here are some more details on his escapades.

    Edit: Here’s the original blog. Looks like he was still playing games in 2020.

    Here’s another one that did make it’s way to the intended recipient:

      I was at a festival, a couple of years ago. Someone sent a letter, with a name, a tent colour, and a GPS location. Royal Mail (uk) delivered it the next day.
