Dublin's a bit of a dive anyhow.

The english aren't really well recieved in any country. Holiday resorts in europe absolutely love the Irish but loath the english, I've never understood why there's so much anger vented at GB. :confused:

From what I understand, it's people being stupid and remembering things done by people who have little or no connection to the person in question.

I just hate all foreigners.

Methinks most **** stems to WW2 when Britain was the only country who really had a problem with Germany invading Poland (aside from Poland of course). We always seem to be the only ones trying to make the world better without any pretense or personal gain.

After WW2, the only people Britain were pally with was like France and some piss-poor African countries. And France caved to the demands of the whiney-mofo farmers and lost all respect from the British public. Nothing's really much changed since.

I wore full Highland dress to my High School grad, including the Sk..sch..fukit, the wee knife. Was classy, looked super.


Schean Dhu (Skee-ahn Doo), I think it's spelled.

Oh, and if anyone want's to experience the lovely schisms of Scotland (or indeed Glasgow in particular), I'd suggest walking into the Loudon Tavern* with a Celtic top on.  Or that Irish pub next to the Barras with a (glorious) Rangers top on.  Can't really remember any Irish pubs in Glasgow, cos I'd never go a mile near one.........

*or, for example, that place next to the underground station at Ibrox... I forget the name - the Railway Inn or something, is it?
