@xXGarionXx No. Britain is Scotland England and Wales. With Northern Ireland they make up the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. The British Isles is a purely geographical term which includes all of the islands of the UK and Eire too.
@Malc2169 Northern ireland is part of UK NOT Britain YOU FUCKING TWAT BRITAIN IS AN ISLAND!!! LEARN YOUR SHIT BEFORE YOU INSULT PEOPLE DUMBASS!!! HAHAHA!!!
how the fuck is ireland british they rejected britain in the war in the 20's they battered the brits out of the 26 and the six counties where the path to be reunited is well and truely underway.
unionist will walk into a united ireland one way or the other as they have no national identity they are not english/scotish/irish even the NORN IRON flag is illegitamite
Right, right, right. Seems like I made a fault. I always thought that Ireland is also british like spain is european. I always thought, the UK is England, Wales and Northern Ireland and the whole (including Ireland) is Great Britain. But it seem that I was wrong. Sorry for this. I know that Ireland has nothing in common with England but I thought that "Great Britain" is a definition for everything (including Ireland). So, my fault ;)
FWIW Pete Shelley (lead singer of Buzzcocks) adopted the "Shelley" surname because, he said, that's what his parents would have called him if he'd been a girl. Not an urban legend - can't remember which book I read it in but it was one of the 'respectable' histories of the period. Anyway, make of that what you will.
& I'm sure Howard Devoto would have been in Cousin Kevin's art-school synth group given the chance.
It's about a boy (called Jimmy obviously) who runs away cos no one ever listens to him (as the lyrics say) but he disappeared and no one knew why cos 'no one saw the ambulance that took little Jim away' Just like to saw aswell this is a great song and i've loved it since the first ay i heard it :D
Erm. Thanks, but all you've done is repeat the lyrics - I can actually understand the lyrics myself. My point is that the lyrics raise a lot of questions. Was Jimmy a real boy or is he fictional? Was it maybe a famous case in the news or a local one the boys in Derry knew about? What 'wouldnt he let go' of? How do we know he was taken away in an ambulance if no-one saw it? etc. I love the song too, but I'd like to know more about the background (not just the lyrics). :) Ta. RM
i used to sing this to my ex`s youngest, his middle name was james & we used to have a right scream lol great lad & great memories :)
