You know it has a certain reputation......
Yes mods ban me for suggesting Scots might be excitable. Given we Irish are as pure as the driven snow with alcohol taken.
Plus you English who never drink much.
On a flight 18 months ago where went to a Republic of Ireland football game in Europe joining Irish mates who drag me along, flight back the pilot announced no alcohol would be served as he figured everybody had already had their fill over the weekend. Probably a decent idea under the circumstances as lots of sore heads already, lots of water was being drunk though and lots of sleeping.
Landed at Gatwick and when waiting for gate Pilot came on and just said "To the Irish Football fans, from my crew and myslef we want to say Thank You, you have lived up to your reputation, it has been a really great pleasure having you on board. We were not expecting such an easy flight." That got a big cheer and singing until we got to the gate.
