Mrs.Saxe-Coburg Gotha (shortened to Mrs.Windsor for her British subjects and to facilitate an unambitious English school curriculum) came to visit us in Dublin because she couldn’t get a decent pint of Guinness anywhere on the mainland.

We extend a warm Irish welcome the Queen as we do to all German visitors to our shores.

Fortunately the warm irish welcome was diffused by the bomb squad before she arrived.

Bugger...

Who let the doddering old Greek in anyway, dribbling fool he is. About time he was sent to a padded cell he's been mentally challenged for about the last 30 years.

He's bound to cock up.

I suggest removing them all except Harry and William, at least there's some entertainment value in them if nothing else.

	Well as an Irish person, I found today events (unexpectedly) very moving. I think its hard for outsiders to understand this, but never ever growing up did I think I would see a British monarch visit Ireland and lay a wreath honouring the men who died for Irish freedom from Britain. It was a very generous and magnanimous gesture on her behalf and I applaud her greatly for it. It was also wonderful to see the Queen meet the President McAlesse as an equal. This is what the Irish independence struggle was all about - days like today. I hope Queen Elizabeth enjoys the rest of her time in our country. She is helping heal wounds in our history. Go n-eírí an bóthar leat.

Really was it now? I guess costing Irish taxpayers 26m in security costs to lay a wreath was a great jesture. I've visited this place and paid my respects to those who fought for something better. Unfortunately the same hasn't happened in the UK yet.

I doubt it. Irish independance was to remove the very scum related to these parasites, who made the people of Ireland suffer for 200 years before the people rose up and gained there deserved independence. Yes I agree a bitter pill to swallow for the UK monarchy, and one long overdue.

There are no wounds to heal, the average joe in Ireland/UK get on very well without all this interaction from rabid politicians and royality.

More a circus than a positive step to fix the past. Of course there's always the Rugby banter, but I love the Irish all the same.

The special bond between the people of the UK and Ireland has always been there.

As opposed to that doddering dribbling bloated ex pm of course, yes thats the one, who ran the celtic tiger right into the brick wall built with cash that didnt exist that lead up to the nation that actually doesnt want to become some shite republic dig deep in its own depleted pockets to give same said celtic pussy a lifeline long enough for it to return to the job of retarmacking our driveways- or am i being sensitive? no i don`t think so.

Incidentally whilst our queen graciously laid a wreath at Croke Park yesterday, I didnt see the Irish president laying a wreath for the 14 soldiers killed the previous day to the Croke park incident

	as someone from across the pond I think its cute you english and irish are still upset about internal borders while for the rest of the world its all just a load of bulls testicles, for me all those islands in the north sea fall under the nomenclature 'england'. Its like watching two kids bullying each other on the school playground. I wonder what would have happened if in the past you brits where as wimpy as you guys are now (come on, 6 pages of posts from a guy complaining that the potatoes here are no good and that he wants to go home). Luckely your grandpa's had more spine as we would all be under German rule now. Just give'm back their piece of land and be done with all the whining and crying. It's not like someone else wants it, with all the rain and bad weather. At least the Greeks can sell some of their real estate, I don't know who would want to buy a piece of Ireland when the time comes. P.S. written without being hindered by any knowledge, pure gut feeling

Nothing annoys me more than someone who says England when they mean United Kingdom

I'm still holding out for the Republicans in Cork to join the party, there's time yet for the rebel town to get involved

Just a thought. If the UK sold scotland and wales, they would not be part of the EU. Can I change my passport please? Only trouble is Salmond would be king! Pooh, second thoughts I ll stay English
