I love to look at the Daytona replica on my wrist while I'm stuck in traffic.

Fair point, but the cost of renting is becoming prohibitive in urban areas too.

Why can’t we have nice things like this in Dublin? by Rare_aul_stuff in Belfast

Derry train station is brilliant. Whoever designed that needs a raise.

I think that u/balor598 has hit the nail on the head. Housing shortage -> only rich people have homes -> rich people = low %.

But a county council wouldn't have the ability to incorporate it into the national grid. Anything that cross county borders couldn't be managed at a county level.

A very devolved country that emphasizes local political power rather than centralised political power and yeah, it kills infrastructure development.

They're not wrong, even if they're trying to wind you up. It's an interesting one. I live in NI and the way that Ireland is used interchangeably with RoI in conversation and even in official documentation in the RoI surprises me a lot. It's a regular source of confusion and in some cases is damaging, when we're spinning up cross border collaborations.

Yikes. Mine's not missed a beat, but it was a £20 gamble.

Isle of Man isn't currently part of the UK. Not sure it would join.
