Not really, all the counties in Northern Ireland are in Ulster, the most Northern Provence in Ireland but some of Ulster is part of the republic. Also, East and West exist too. I'm in southern Ireland because I'm in Cork/Munster not just because I'm in the Republic of Ireland.

I suppose it's a bit like to all the Englishes, Scotland (and even Yorkshire and beyond) are "The North" but to us Central Belt Scottish folk, "Up North" means the Highlands & Islands / Inverness etc.

Everywhere is north of somewhere I guess.

'cept Santa's house.

Except for the fact Northern Ireland is actually called Northern Ireland but the Republic of Ireland is not called Southern Ireland, it's called the Republic of Ireland. When people in the UK say "Southern Ireland" they say it like that's the actual name of the country and it isn't.

I don't refer to the republic of ireland, i just call it ireland and everyone i know does the same. We only differentiate when we talk of Northern Ireland

Yeah same in Ireland really but I refer to the republic of Ireland if I need to be more clear

So what is Eire then?

:suspect:

Ireland as gaeilge

ETA: Except it's Éire with a fada

:oh: a fada enough!

In what situation would you need to be more clear?

I ask because I always just say the town I'm from. I think in a discussion most people already know I'm Scottish, and I would imagine it's the same for you being Irish.

When I'm talking about Ireland and Northern Ireland or being clear which "Ireland " I'm talking about. Scotland isn't split in two so id imagine it's not much of a consideration for you

Fair point.

But as a Proud scotsman I'm happy to be british.

What?

I thought jake paul had a new stand in for tyson for a second there.:conf:

Biden can't walk up steps.

The Donald can take a Stone Cold Stunner.

Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you the next President of the United States.:laugh:

One of us. A real person.

Change person to felon

Biden let's felons into his country by the thousands?

It's the year of "The felon"

And the Donald is "the people's felon"

I dont agree but Biden has been a failure.

It's next to impossible to protect a border where the country is your primary trade partner :laugh:

Has Trump ever mentioned that in all his vitriol

:laugh:
