h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Hi there,

You know I've gone to Ireland every year since I was born and I have never heard anyone say top of the morning to you. I think its all American spin myself

Half Irishman here (the other half is somewhere in Merseyside in England), and read your article about the Irish war of independance. I knew what happened but its a good read anyway. I always feel like having a good fight with myself everytime I read about it I'm a citizen of the world anyway...

Anyway enough about me... how are you? Just thought I'd say hello, as I've seen precious few Irish on here... or at least any I've met, and it'd be great to speak to someone from there.

Oh there are an odd few of us around the place... mostly on discussions involving alcohol... *Thinks about this for a while*

Funny story, friend of mine was called a "Fine Colleen" by an American fresh out of shannon and, probably after watching "Darby O'Gill and the Little People" on the way over, and she punched him in the face, it made my year.

An other funny story. I was in a train in France, sitting next to some Swiss. They asked me where I was from, I said Ireland, then one of them said "Oh, aren't you afraid of all the bombs going off".

So what parts of Ireland did you visit?
