    On a re-reading, I have no fucking idea what I just said.

    I amaze and disappoint myself simultaneously .

    Has to be the dope.

    If Ian had been ousted in all reality, I would have thought that he would have been the first one to klaxon the fact, being as he is a foghorn of a man.

    He is a foghorn of a foghorn of a foghorn.

    He was a hun and he got dunted (Belfarst burnacular).

    Try to catch Stephen Nolan between 9 and 10.30 on Radio Ulster.

    Jp, it's a fucking crucible of pain. More so than even this bored.

    It's Schadenfreude with a Belfast accent. Faster than the Leaning Tower Of Piza.

    I thought that, which was why I was surprised to see it as above.

    I haven't been in Ireland for a wee while but if memory serves the roadsigns used to vary twixt the two. Presumably to cater to both viewpoints.

    These days, it's Londonderry.

    But sometimes somewhat more sensitives use 'Derry/Londonderry'.

    True story.

    BBC would predominantly use Londonderry but it would vary from presenter to presenter, depending on their sense of humour.

    So I would project that both will eventually become interchangeable.

    But not without a kicking or two.
