Seven of the weirdest and most brilliant pictures (and videos) sent in by our readers

Sometimes we are sent really useful news tips and pictures, other times we are sent really weird crap like this.

OVER HERE AT TheJournal.ie headquarters we sometimes get sent in really, REALLY random stuff.

While for the most part our readers send us news tips and pictures that are perfectly relevant and useful, sometimes they’re really not.

We used to post some of the weird sh*te that got sent our way, and we’ve recently started bringing back the randomness.

So here’s a look at some of the surprises we got when we opened our inboxes recently:

Absolutely ducked

We got sent on this beautiful display by a reader who said they spotted the ducks in a car park yesterday morning. Quackers

Summer excitement

Another reader decided to send us in a photo of a sunny O’Connell Street with the caption, “Dublin with the Spain feels”.

Dublin with Spain

Bed Bear

This came in with the caption, “Down with this sort of place.”

Right so.

Mad

Another reader took a snap of this takeaway that has Madcow in the title and appears to serve ‘Maxican’ food.

“Spotted this evening at Kelly’s Corner. And their ‘ Maxican’ food sounds a bit odd too.”

Shut up and dance 

We don’t normally get in videos but we got sent in this footage of these kids absolutely rocking out and enjoying the  sunshine this week ….
