my eldest sister asked one day "who is that gerry mander they are always on about" lol

Did you tell her that there were 2 of them   

Hi Scotland it's nice to se you, I hope all is well with you and the family

Breda, I hope you manage to get the photo up. I hear miss Betty has left for Vancouver so I guess you'll be able to catch up with her. How are you doin, ?  

Liz, we managed to get out in the garden today and tidy up a bit, a few of the potted plants were starting to look a bit bedraggled, I hope this nice weather lasts until Thanksgiving  wishfull thinking

No they most certainly aren't,...and I never said that they were,... that's your misinterpretation and misrepresentation of what I really did say,... but in terms of breaksit and the future border arrangements that will or may result in,... the recent Ulster civil war is of no relevance to that issue.

The border arrangements in relation to breaksit is a mainly economic and administrative issue,... it isn't a post conflict related issue, and that post conflict aspect of the border arrangements has already been dealt with during the peace process negotiations.

That politician's past claimed activities aren't the subject of this thread either, and don't have even the slightest relevance to the possible effects of breaksit on the Irish border,... and he's now a former Government Minister and a present member of the House of Lords.
