GG - Don't knock it on the basis of what you read in the Imperial English Press. I only visit occasionally, but everyone's dead friendly, up for a laugh, good craic, and not as boot faced as you get on the London underground. If someone had said 10 years ago that I'd be delighted to nip over to Belfast for a night out, I'd have said they were mad. Now I'd say they were mad not to !!
To be frank I'd be more worried in Manchester.
Anyway - 2 things I can't stand - bigots ... and Yorkshire gits
