My great uncle is a butcher in the market, he had a little chat with her when she walked in there. It's so weird seeing her walking through the market.

People from Dublin get called "jackeens" because apparently it was the last county to lower the union Jack flag............(this being despite the fact that all parlimentary buildings are there, so obviously there are more union jacks to lower).

The langers look like they want the title now alright....haha.
Hope it all goes well, .....i think its all great for both countrys.

Just saw that speech by your wan that made the joke about the Queen falling from her horse..

I cringed

Your wan just happens to be a legend in Irish journalism, some people don't seem to have have gotten the humour, wit and irony, I did and I'm damn sure there' s no one enjoyed it more than the Queen.

Well done to Cork though. Shame the same welcome could not have been given in Dublin.

or when he asked a scottish driving instructor how he kept the natives off the booze long enough for them to pass the test.

In fact, that was a good and sensible question. It's a question that many millions the world over must wonder at.
