Have you met somebody from every county

Specialun

I dont think ive met anybody from laois or louth....wouldnt be surprised if there make believe places like nevernever land

Mr. CooL ICE

Roscommon, Leitrim, Fermanagh and Tyrone.

However, I know somebody who has relatives in Leitrim, so I have taken his word for it that the place exists. He said that a hot topic amongst his relatives there is "the road". Apparently, this road has been a hot topic for about 20 years

There's only three people in Sligo so you're unlikely to meet one of them.

Mr.Crinklewood

Is it possible to have 26 answers in a poll?

I think Carlow is now a waste disposal site rendering it very challenging to meet one of the fifty workers who currently reside over the complex.

I forgot Leitrim existed, pretty sure I haven't met anyone from there.

Depends if they are being questioned for murder or not.

You have they just didn't admit they were from Leitrim.

Is this last week?
How do I get back to this week?

How would I know?

I don't ask everyone I encounter where they are from.

mb1725

No one ever owned up to me as being from Roscommon or Longford.

Wasn't this riveting topic covered already about a week ago?

Dr Drastico

I met a man from Roscommon once. Very hairy ears.

Do you not? I do. The answer could determine if they're worth conversing with......

And I'm nosy.

Not that i would ever admit to that or anything

Probably, but I honestly don't care. It's all "Ireland" to me.

Cork.
I've long suspected cork was a myth.

I'm in the middle of trying to complete that as an achievement. I'm almost at 1 so far.

What a silly thread, hence a silly answer 'cause I'm in a silly mood:

I traveled all 36 counties in Ireland and met such and such, mostly such - as such backwards.

Seriously? The most interesting and open-minded people live near the coast, Cork people being the most enjoyable ones. Really.

The Northern folks are lovely because funnily weird. Especially Belfast people (I used to live there, mind). Derry people are downright hilarious.

West Coast depends - Kerrymen never cease to astonish me about their ignorance beyond their mountains, Clare is parochial, Galway/Mayo thinks, they are special because there were Spanish wine merchants, which gives them a presumed cosmopolitan touch, or respectively they had the most severe famine, memorized even in German literature (Heinrich Böll anyone?). Do they still do potatoes over there?

Donegal is unique, because it has scenery and people who seem to be astonished that there is a world beyond rain and storms and sheep.

Now for the midlands - Offaly still has people who call it King's Country;and Brian Cowen. Laois? I might have passed it, never noticed. Tipperary and Limerick and Kilkenny, now at least they have built history.

Basically, every part of Ireland has it's own beauty and gob****ery, but every part has their own people who might be great or might be dumb.

Did I forget Dublin? No, I didn't. It's just a conglomeration of culchies who think they are sophisticated. So it doesn't count.

I've yet to meet someone from Roscommon. Don't know anything about the place. Old school friend of mine moved there around the time of Junior Cert and I never once heard from him again. Ominous ...

starlit

Iv met someone from most counties at this stage except carlow, longford, leitrim and some northern counties.

yenom

Everywhere but Carlow.

Nailz

Met loads of lads from Longford through college, but one of them once told me that when he was attending DIT, Dubs would tell him that they've never met anyone from Longford before and he was the first. I found this strange, but when I was chatting to a good mate of mine from back home he said that he never met a Longfordian before I either, and we're an hour away! That's just shocking.

But I suppose places like Leitrim and Longford aren't very populated so it's less likely to meet someone from there. As for myself, I've met people from every county in Ireland.

Rasheed

Anyone who's never met somebody from Roscommon, Call up to me here I'll give you a tour you'll never forget, you won't want to leave at all......

policarp

I've met people from all countries in Ireland. . .

dodderangler

Never met anyone from posh part of Dublin.
Apparently it exists though

Yes.
Cork is now north cork and south cork. 2 counties
Dublin is now north and south. 2 counties.
Assuming he claims ireland as 32 counties.
If not and says its 26 counties then well throw in north and south Kerry, Galway and Donegal.
