Because this is a big brother forum and I was addressing something said on Big Brother believe it or not!!

i am from belfast father from italy mother irish.

very proud of where i am from and so should everyone be,and lets all have a party and a bit of criac

I have a lot of time for the Irish - I used to work with quite a few from Southern Ireland and spoke with people in Dublin daily. I really miss the banter. There's nothing better than a gorgeous dark haired, blue eyed Irishman with a lovely southern accent ..... off into dream world!! (although I'm smitten with George Lamb - if he had an Irish accent, I'd be finished!!)

Nice try OP.

Shame the sanctimonious PC brigade had to rain on the parade.

Thank you Sinessa

darbymoo, you completely ACCIDENTALY opened a pedantic can of worms with some peeps on here. I simply wouldnt address the more 'trollish' attempts at argument here.

All told its been completely lighthearted as it should be, some people just dont get it. Dont feed them.

Now, on with the craic, mines a Beamish

Bump if you too like to party with the Irish!!

The whoring for votes worked then

Come on the Irish. My family, mum and dad, etc are all from Ireland, a place called tipperary

From Ireland

My last name is KELLY, married to an Irishman, so I do love to party with the IRISH!

(However, I found Rex to be a wee bit patronizing when he said that, as if "the Irish" are just some species of party goers, bred for his entertainment. Don't like the guy).

A wasted effort. We still can't vote from here this week so far, the tech problem is still there. Also I would rather party in hell rather than most who are in heaven.

BUMP from County Armagh

I absolutely ADORE the accent. Makes me go all weak at the knees LOL. There is an Irish Dad up at the school and I invent all sorts of reasons to get him talking heehee (doesn't matter that he's twice my age LOL). He knows what affect he has though and generally makes a point of saying something to me (don't care what it is he's saying!!) if he sees me.

I've never found an Irish fella I'd like to date though, I don't mean they would make bad boyfriends, just that I've not met one I've taken a shine to "that way".

I couldn't live in Ireland though - I'd be seventh heaven and you can have too much of a good thing.

Definately the most seductive accent in my book.

Irish and Proud!!!

I am up for the craic!

So do I, my hubbie is Irish. Bump.

My Mum was from Donegal and my Dad from Cork.

Bump!! They have the best pubs by far (especially for smokers because they have brilliant outdoor bar areas and stuff) I love Ireland!!

' i like irish people, they are good at parties'

From a lovely warm sunny Dublin .( for a change )

to everybody greetings from Cork

me ma was Irish and Ive partied on many an occasion with the rellies - they are a fab bunch of ppl
