      EIRE signs were to tell the pilots they were flying over a neutral country not so much to tell them where they were going.

      @SeanandEmily  4 месяца назад

      @Joseph13163 to begin with perhaps but they wouldn’t have gone to the trouble of adding the location numbers and giving a list of the locations and corresponding numbers to the Allied pilots.

      @@noelward9579 True. I live in West Cork and we still have the bunkers built by the Americans in WW2 like the one near me on Whiddy Island. Some Germans were incarcerated in the Curragh Camp until the war was over. Some of them has crashed their planes and survived. Right-ring Brits like to dismiss these facts and claim inaccurately that Ireland was on the side of the Germans. It suits their narrative. The historical proof tells an opposite story. 👍💚

    Fun Fact, Malin head is the northernmost part of Ireland, and is further north than anywhere in Northern Ireland. This is why you never, ever ever refer to Ireland (or in your case Island) as "the South" or "Southern Ireland" unless referring to the counties of Cork and Kerry.
    Also the Eire you see written on the headlands is pronounced "eh-rah". Have enjoyed your quick tour of my country, and your many mispronunciations, and finding some of the best kept views, away from the usual tourist trail (Cliffs of "Mow-herr are a ripoff, the cliffs in "Ah--kill" are just as nice, and cost nothing to visit. (Joking aside, the placenames do come from a whole other Language, of course). Looking forward to see how you manage Scutland. Keep between the ditches!

      I find it difficult to understand how English people can't pronounce the names of places in Ireland correctly seeing as though the names were anglicised to suit them when we were colonised, it would be good craic to hear them trying to pronounce the names in Irish!
      A lot of north Donegal is more northerly than any part of the six counties apart from Rathlin island I suppose.
      That wee ferry across lough Foyle is expensive for what it is, much nicer to ride in through Derry city and see the sights in there of the murals etc and the old city walls.
      I would have liked to see them ride past the big sign at Bridgend which says welcome to Ireland!
      Sean and Emily are covering a lot of ground on this trip for sure.
