It took us 3 hours today to travel a usual 45 minute journey because 3 different villages had orangemen out for a walk, can you not walk on the footpaths like normal folk. Today was the last Saturday in August , one of the days I mentioned.. hardly 2 months of celebrations when it's 3 different days .. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Chid are you seriously trying to tell folks that orangemen only March on three days of the year. . What about all the PRACTICE marches. . Do different lodges not go for a walk up the middle of the road at different times of the year in different areas. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Anyway I’ll leave at that because this could go back and forth for ever. . 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Just don't go through any places flying the Union flag .. then you definitely won't bump into any orangemen 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That would only offend the republican parades through Belfast though as they’d never be able to hide the guns after their show of strength Quote Link to post Share on other sites

THE STIFFMEISTER 15,696 Posted September 1, 2019 Report Share Posted September 1, 2019 I think it’s a nice thing to happen really that tradition is carried on in the face of adversity or inclusive ness after all , orange walks are carried out worldwide wherever the Protestant Irish diaspora have settled . Canada , USA , Australia spring to mind instantly and let’s be honest , the orange matches are a million times more professional than the average James Connolly society march , half a dozen guys in Asda suits with a bobby sands flag doesn’t really resonate like a column of properly turned flute players and a few lambeg drums in all honesty, I quite like that the marches are still carried on 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
