    yeah funny how that happens around the world

    tbh it never bothered me before. Like i have mentioned before on other threads i have been to places like kashmir in th epast despite being told not to

    thing is with my little guy i have to consider loads, i even have to get hospital advise (as to the nearest) then get a doctor to ring them and take a written 'what to do' to save time

    But that is what folk think of when the Antrim coast is mentioned. Understandable I guess. It is worth seeing, not worth going to see.

    I once spent a week in a village in Wicklow and for the life of me I can't remember the name of it <grr> but it was amazing. It was quiet and serene, the scenery was beautiful and the people were very friendly and welcoming. I only wish I could remember it's name.

    I know, its one of those have to see places but there is a lot more beautiful sites up there.

    IMO its a breath of fresh air to get out of the hussle and bussle of the city, Belfast is like any other city in th UK only it has a dirty past and paintings. Most toursits want to see it but theres way more to our country than that bollocks!

    Best bet then is prob boat from L'pool to Dooblin. It's a few hours up to N.I so it may be best to focus your hol down South.<ok>

    True.

    Went over a couple of years ago to watch Everton/Wolves. Goodison is a tip. 0-0 untill about 80 minutes then it ended up 1-1 with a red card. Had been on the MDMA all night so it felt like 90 minutes of water boarding. My mate fell in love with the Czech girl dealing the cards on the boat and dropped about £200 <laugh>
