I've been there without a uniform or a weapon, when we went to visit Belleek Pottery in Co. Fermanagh years ago. It was at the time of the mad cow outbreak and we all had to walk through disinfected mats at the entrance.

I have been. Nice place and people, although maybe not the best place to discuss politics

I went to visit relatives travelling from the Southern Hemisphere and was alright though through driving saw some rough looking tower blocks estates.
We didn't speak politics though they were reticent to say what football teams they supported.

It was at the time of the mad cow outbreak and we all had to walk through disinfected mats at the entrance. Probably TB or foot and mouth. Mad cow disease wasn't contagious. It was caused by prions in feed made from scrapie infected sheep. The most unnecessary disease ever. |
