Outline of Stump of Limerick visible on Loch Ness from Google Earth

The big news story of the day has to be the Google Earth appearance of a strange shape on Loch Ness. The Telegraph asks “Is the Loch Ness monster on Google Earth?”. The headline has spread around the world.

But I think they’ve missed out on the bigger picture, I really do, and I’m surprised no one has picked up on this. After donning my crumpled columbo jacket and firing up Google Earth to investigate, I found something else.  Zooming out from the supposed monster, the outline of the Stump of Limerick is quite clearly visible.

This is a sign of something. Not quite sure what, but it’s definitely a sign I tell ya.
