These Irish lads have brilliantly covered their neighbour’s car in festive wrapping paper… as you do

Is it a book? A bottle of wine? A pineapple perhaps? No, it's clearly the neighbour's car.

What did you get us for Christmas? Is it a book? A bottle of wine? A pineapple perhaps?

No, it’s clearly the neighbour’s car.

Some gas Galway lads, led by Shane Duffy and Paddy Hennelly, recently put their creative Christmas skills to the test as they took a notion to completely cover Sinead Burke’s (their very lucky neighbour) car in festive wrapping paper. As you do.

According to Eoin Nevin on Facebook, the lads (who were perhaps inspired by these jokers from Saggart, Dublin) had the great idea to wrap the vehicle up and so, “after a trip to the euro shop, €17 later, eight rolls of wrapping paper, a few rolls of sticky tape and some other Christmas stuff, this was the result.”

What makes their artistic achievement all the more impressive is the fact that the lads were supposedly suffering from a bad hungover at the time.

Full marks to all concerned.
