@MrWilum ah but the orange colour is a symbol of the pro-british protestants so you are correct. lol I doubt your n=brain has rotted not nearly half as bad as mine and im only 30.

@seonidh I'm probably mis-remembering and there were orange flowers as well -- this was in 1972 and my memory has rotted almost as badly as my teeth.....

@MrWilum lol considering the freestate has orange and not yellow in its flag he took that a bit too far. But yellow was the symbol of the ira flag. I have friends both protestant and catholic who wont wear green as it is a free state colour and orange as its associated with protestantism. It truly is a mad, mad world and Ireland is right up there with its sectarian bigotry.

@seonidh I knew a Protestant minister in Omagh, County Tyrone, who wouldn't allow a display of daffodils on his alter because they were the three colours of the Free State flag....

@MrWilum ah right the Ulster Scots dialect it originated in Scotland thats why I thought you'd been to scotland. As for the south being a bit negitive to the north my friends mother from Belfast was in a post offfice que in dublin and heard a man two people ahead ask for some stamps, he had an Ulster accent. The woman behind the counter said "we don't sell stamps here!" he left and as my friends mother got to the front she said in a southern accent "three stamps please.". The woman served her.

@seonidh I spent a year in Ulster as a Mormon missionary, and "wee" was a word I picked up there that has stayed with me. After about a year in the North, I was sent to the Free State, and they chided me for speaking Northern lingo.
