    Louth: Is this place even big enough to be classified as a county? Of little use apart from facilitating road routes from Dublin to Belfast and sheltering terrorists on the run.

    Recommendation: Wipe from the map, no one will even notice it's gone.

    I'd notice!

    Anyways, Louth has the two biggest towns in the country, ffs. You can't just get rid of it. Having said that, it would be nice to cut Drogheda out of Louth and push it out into the Irish Sea.

    Kilkenny seems to have gotten away with no mention! is it because everyone seems to like it (maybe for its strawberry production)? Or because ppl forgot about it?
