    Hard to spot the Nordies in Dublin these days.
    In the past we had little, wiry moustaches, black leather jackets, loafer shoes and white socks.
    We'd give each other "that look" in the street and maybe a sheepish nod.
    But now....

    even if he was 'nordiest' you could just have said you're from donegal just to see the look on his face

    Harp is the nicest Beer in Ireland if the Pint is poured properly, biggest seller here in Dundalk by a mile and I know its very popular down South in Parts of Cork and Kerry aswell.

    On the Nordie thing, My ex was from the North. She always claimed that whenever we went out down South, be it Dundalk, Drogheda or Dublin that people treated her different. I dont know how true it is as I always told her she was overthinking things.

    I do know that the clubs in Dundalk are not too fond of Northerners coming down and many often get turned away

    Guys with different accents usually do better with women so maybe they're afraid of them stealing all the girls. If what you're saying is true that's pretty bad though.

    'Nordies' is a term Jackeens from The Pale use.

    See what I did there?

    Were the couple you were chatting to uncomfortable? Are you loud?

    Are you really asking if you were refused a drink because you're from the North?

    I am quite loud, but the couple seemed happy enough to chat us, maybe they were hinting at the barman when I wasnt looking????????

    What is the story with people saying Nordie? I know its an attempt to differentiate people from other areas but I never meet anyone from Galway saying they are Westest or people referring to Wexford people as Southies. I'd be in favour of dropping it altogether. Tell us what county or town you are from, it's no bother. You can call it Ulster or Northern Ireland, the Six counties or the Province. It just annoys me because sometimes I hear it used derogatively also OP.

    Fermanagh, but to anyone not from the surrounding counties, I sound like Im from Donegal.

    It was more of a catchy title TBH, I was hoping someone who was there/works there would be able to enlighten me so I'll no for again.
