Pyg 0 Posted December 27, 2006 Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 My other half spent her formative years in Ireland and is now trying to convince me to move there. I keep moaning about this country going to the dogs and this is strengthening her argument..... We have two young children, a lurcher, four ferrets, some chickens and a veg garden (you can see what I do for fun). I work in I.T. so it looks like employment shouldn't be a problem. So what's it like over there guys, the good and the bad?! Thanks in advance, Pyg. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest baldie Posted December 27, 2006 Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 I go every year, fishing, and i adore the place and the people.The wife wont leave her family, unfortunatley, otherwise i would have quit this shithole many years ago.If you have a genuine chance my friend, grasp it with both hands, this country is fast sinking into the shite.......its done for.

celt 1 Posted December 27, 2006 Report Share Posted December 27, 2006 I am from ireland and have just moved back with english wife and 2 kids. Do not underestimate the differences in culture, you might laugh but things are dealt with differently here. Do not underestimate the house prices, they are crazy too. Good sides, all the hunting I am doing now and great food/drink so up to you Celt Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Stabs 3 Posted December 28, 2006 Report Share Posted December 28, 2006 its a bit like the isle of sheppey ive heard :thumbs-up: No! Ireland is lovely! I used to go out with a lass from the west coast of Cork and spent a lot of time over there fishing and what have you. Love the place with a passion. Spent the 94 World Cup over there and it was a brilliant place to be. Watched the Republic in many bars and sunk many pints! When people asked where you were from and I said "Co. Durham" they all loved you due to Big Jack Quote Link to post Share on other sites
