What was the best day of your life?
Mine was the day I emigrated from England to Ireland.

Kylo Ren · 23-12-2011 1:32am

When I discovered masturbation. Or yesterday. Yeah, yesterday was good.

TeddyTedson · 23-12-2011 1:33am

Taking our jobs and our women:rolleyes:

Wait until the Euro collapses, you'll scuttle back to the UK then. For me, the best day is yet to come, although they keep getting better.

Just as well you weren't born in Africa then, or you'd have had a lot of people calling you "illegal" & wanting you deported.

day my dad died. Know it might sound weird but i was just so relieved he was no longer in pain and watching him slip away was very peaceful and took away a lot of fear that people associate with death and dying. I stopped being afraid of a lot of things that day.

Birth of the little un.

Nothing comes close.

TheMilkyPirate · 23-12-2011 1:35am

Was i the only person that when asked this question really struggled to think of one particular day?

I suppose now it would be the day my son was born.

pokertalk · 23-12-2011 1:36am

Well I think Johnny Foreigner said on another thread that he was born in London to Irish parents, so I guess he's kinda Irish. So we'll just have to put up with him.

Just for the record, I am Irish.
I know all about racial discrimination and prejudice.
My parents came to London from Ireland in 1960 when the boarding houses had; No Blacks No Dogs No Irish, signs in the windows.
I was a child of the 1970's and 1980's in London and during the IRA bombing campaign I experienced the prejudice against the Irish from the English.

He was also going on about deporting Africans because they were African.

If it were not for the mere accident of the geography of his birthplace, then the best day of his life would have been radically different.

Tesco Massacre · 23-12-2011 1:45am

I won a fancy dress competition when I was 11 dressed as Ali Baba. Won a box of Quality Street. Good day.

There was also the birth of my daughter which elicits similar feelings.

You are taking this thread off topic, but I am happy to correct you.
I am Irish.

“ I do not think this country will afford sufficient allurements to the citizens of other States ... The children of Irish parents born abroad are sometimes more Irish than the Irish themselves, and they would come with added experience and knowledge to our country.... ”

Cait O'Riordan (Bass player in The Pogues) was born in Nigeria, but I wouldn't deport her from Ireland if she chose to live in her own country.

Unfortunately, yes we are all European.

Funny how you don't like it when others assume things about you but you have absolutely no problem in assuming things about others.

In my book, that's hypocrisy.

I have been coming to Ireland every year of my life, and loved it. Growing up in London in an Irish family I never felt English, or that I belonged in England. I always dreamed of living in Ireland since I was a child. When I moved to Ireland 2 years ago, I fulfilled a life long dream to live in Ireland. Now I feel I belong. This is something that many children of the Irish diaspora, whose parents left Ireland in the 1950's and 1960's experience. You never really feel a sense of belonging (to England) when you are born outside of Ireland. Its only when you move back to Ireland that you have that feeling of belonging.

So, was your family Irish and lining in the UK ? Were you born in England ?

I lived through 2 recessions in London; in the 1980's and 1990's; so the recession in Ireland from 2007 on is no different to me.
The economy will return from bust to boom again, although it will take time.
I remember as a child in 1986 seeing the Irish sleeping rough in London parks, homeless and destitute. Ireland had an unemployment rate of 16% then. This is not the first time Ireland has had a recession. My parents, like many left Ireland for London in search of work in 1960. Now the Irish are leaving for Canada and Australia doing the same 50 years on. I don't regret moving to Ireland from London. It was the best thing I have ever done in my life.
