Holy moley: Is that a coffin hanging out of a people carrier in Cork?

We hope this wasn’t someone’s last car journey before having a face to face with St. Peter.

We hope this wasn’t someone’s last car journey before having a face to face with St. Peter.

We’ve just been sent in this rather odd picture from JOE reader Eoin Nevin and by the looks of it, someone in Cork was recently transporting a coffin in the back of their Opel Zafira.

The pic, which was originally taken by Eoin’s mate Alan Healy, was snapped just outside the Bus Station at Parnell Place in Cork City…

Now, it could just be a prop or a fairly strange looking coffee table, but whatever it is the owner of the car certainly didn’t want moving around in the boot.

If you have any idea as to what exactly was going on in the pic, give us a shout on Facebook…

Hat tip to Eoin Nevin for sending the pic in via Facebook…
