Hi everyone! I figured this would be the best place to finally de-lurk. I live in Kildare but work in Dublin, so count myself as existing in that odd interstitial commuter space between the two.
I'm sneak reading about all of you, just so you know. I'm American but of Irish descent - my half Irish mother even gave me a gaelic name, although she misspelled it..
Leitrim here. There aren't a huge contingent of us anywhere really.
Belfast here, fierce Northerner. Purrrrr.
In fairness, Leitrim borders on fictional at this point. I've lived in Connacht (Galway) my whole life and I don't know a single Leitrimer!
Hello, from just outside Belfast.
My Dad's side of the family is all Irish. I remember when I was younger before we moved to New Zealand from England, I'd walk with him at night down by the river and the docks and you'd hear fiddle music from the pubs. These days, whenever I hear any sort of Irish music with traditional elements it gives me great feelings.
I'd love to live in Ireland for a while at some point. Hopefully a fair distance from the troubles though!
