It should be pointed out that only Northern Ireland should be included. Ireland is a different country.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah and I have a suspicion that not many Irish people would feel represented by "what ho, old bean"

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 hours ago

Neither would the norn Irish. Nor the Welsh actually. Probably not the Scottish either. Come to think of it, I don't think Cockneys, Geordies, Brums, Yams, Scousers, Yonners, Mummersetters or Easties would, either.

If you enjoy this exercise, consider ham radio. People contest purely to collect contacts from different places.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 14 hours ago

Basically all ham radio is used for.

I went there once. I can’t go back because the cab driver said next time I visit, he wants to meet my kids. But I don’t have any kids.
