    Queen Elizabeth II's visit to Ireland

    Some protests but nothing major so far and she visited Croke Park, hope the rest of the visit goes off without any violence - it is quite historic

    There was 2 bombs found (one in city and one on a bus in Maynooth).. a few protest but that was just due to her visting Croke park and Garden of remembrance.. Haven't heard it yet but people are quiet impressed with her speech in which she spoke a few words as Gaeilge... She refused a Guinness and good old Phil asked if it was made from Liffey water..So far so good.

    Do you think she's had a drink of Poteen instead.

    I bet she's taken a few bottles back for Phillips 90's birthday knees-up this week.
