[quote=@Spud] I think I win on the language front then ;) but only because I still remember "An bhfuil cead agam dul go dtí an leithereas a mhuinteoir" ... the schools aren't much better here either tbh, at least the North has its own dialect (even if it sounds like an utterly different language sometimes!) I learned a mix of Connacht and Munster Irish because theres no real Leinster dialect because of the Pale etc so they just blend the two down here. Bahhh who wants a history lesson anyhow when we can have a few pints and craic! Haha March is my birthday, better schedule a shopping trip while I'm in Antrim so!! Come down South to the Midlands after Brexit! Close to Dublin but without the shocking housing prices and no more Brexit-stress! Mind you, I wouldn't want to move South after experiencing the NHS ... Dude, I nearly cried when nurse discharged me after I fell off a bus because it took less than 2hrs to get seen to in A&E ... Do you have any idea how long you'd wait in Tallaght to get an xray?!? You must get the best of both being on the border aye [/quote] LOL! Our teacher wouldn't let us out to go to the toilet until we learned that phrase; needless to say, we learned it fairly quickly! And I know, I remember going down to Connemara for a holiday and trying my best to use a few phrases but I had absolutely no idea what they were even responding with! :P You'll have to! I think it's pretty much guaranteed that the euro will be worth more than the pound so you'll get loads! [s]Assuming Northern Ireland hasn't collapsed at that point, of course![/s] And yeah, I'm applying for NUI, DCU and UCD so I might just go down South if I can't get into Queens! Also the NHS is possibly the only thing holding me back from wanting a reunification - I've heard all about doctors and dentists down South! Being on the border has its ups and downs, I guess! Loads of business but with so much trade being from the south, the long-term effect won't be pretty! Also we've finally rebelled and made it into an Irish thread! Yay! Now all we need is the damned Tree~ I think she's Irish as well! :P
