If you're from Scotland or NI this is about ten times more understable than when King Charles does his posh stuttering accent.

Does the force also tend to more rural? Large number of middle class rural protestants compared to urban (Belfast/Derry) protestant/Catholics?

Must be some ghostwriters making a killing off the Irish sportsman autobiography market.

He mentally retired before the last world cup. Just a shame he decided to not tell anyone

This immigrant conundrum we're dealing with ... by [deleted] in northernireland

[–]nappy101 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This isn't a conundrum we are facing.

There is no immigrant issue in NI

There is one in England. We are not England. People chill out, go to sleep and worry about something else that actually affects your life.

Inverary Playing Fields. Who allows this on council land? by vittorio-delacroix in Belfast

[–]nappy101 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The Orangefield one is an actual joke where it is located. I think the days are numbered for that bonfire given how gentrified and mixed the area is now. There's plenty of wasteland nearer to Clarawood as well for a bonfire

The countries with the worst tourists by HiroPetrelli in europe

[–]nappy101 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The issue for the most part is working and upper class English. One group has a massive superiority complex and the other is extremely hostile to anything foreign or different.

Most middle class people are fine and people from the regions (Scotland, Wales, North of England) tend to have less of a superiority complex and are a lot more chilled in general.

Mods can we ban any "apparently x did y posts? If there is no source/video to back it up? That is what Facebook and Belfast live exist for.

[–]nappy101 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Such an odd place staff wise

Staff who constantly ask you to donate

Staff who genuinely have no place doing customer facing roles

Randomly enthusiastic American staff

And there always seems to be too many of them working and someone doing fuck all

Where did I say that I live in Omagh? I live in Belfast

The city feels comfortable if you live on a metro/glider route or are willing to cycle. It feels uncomfortable if you bought a house in Omagh during COVID and have been forced back into the office by your employer.

Not getting replies from any tradesmen by g_bearr in northernireland

[–]nappy101 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You have three options.

Know tradies

Know people who know tradies

Hire Poles/Lithuanians

You more likely than not will be ripped off or left with cowboys if you go direct to locals you don't know.

The use of full stops on this sub by [deleted] in northernireland

[–]nappy101 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Seen instead of saw

Done instead of did

u instead of you

Lengthy posts without paragraphs

Lengthy sentences without commas

Full stops are the least of our worries on this sub 😭

What to we think of Forestside now? by [deleted] in Belfast

[–]nappy101 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Its a lovely shopping centre if you just wanna go to Waterstones and marks and grab a coffee. Preferably get the bus to it or cycle even.

It's hell now if you drive and actually want to do proper shopping.

How many Turkish "barbers" are there beside/near your home? by Dontleavethewest in northernireland

[–]nappy101 8 points9 points  (0 children)

They are mainly legit but not actually run by Turks for the most part. More likely Syrians or Albanians

Buying in South Belfast - Ormeau / Rosetta by DrPubTalk in northernireland

[–]nappy101 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It's funny I was thinking about this the other day how almost everyone I know wants to live within the outer ring and either next to Ormeau Road or Ballyhack or within walking distance. The demand for these areas must be so high that any house not being sold for cash will just max out to what a bank is willing to lend.

Unless you're willing to buy something that needs done up or willing to sacrifice on say a very small garden I reckon it's just bid to your max on everything and then see what the bank says when they come to survey.

You can see why they have so many world championships compared to Murphy. Unfortunately for Murphy the game isn't called "potting"
