Hi Second Toughest in_the Freshers
Unfortunately I have no Irish whatsoever. That's why I'm asking for help with the gaeilge clues. I'm fine with the others.

I don't speak Irish either but google tells me that "na ceithre cuirteanna" is The Four Courts.

Na Sé Chontae - 'The Six Counties'

There seems to be different spellings of Contaethe

The one I have above is from a Sinn Fein web page

It's from the Holly Bough newspaper published each Christmas by the Cork Evening Echo. I'm afraid that you have to buy it (I don't)

It could also be Na ceithre Cuigi. The four provinces?

To give credit where it's due it was JoCav10 who suggested "The 6 Counties".

I don't speak Irish but I think that The 6 Counties is probably right as it a very commonly used phrase.

Looking at the way Diffney usually put their clues. They would probably say "t 4 P in I" as in "the 4 provinces in Ireland" rather then just "t 4 P"
