To the person who said this, "I walked through the airport in North Ireland in Belfast with a woollen cap that my wife gave to my before I went to Portaferry 2004 to meet up with my friends of Mudcat and I was asked to take it of becouse it had the colours of the IRISH FLAG ????? I didint take it off and I am gonna wear it next February in Portaferry I have my believes and I stick to them no-one tells me other wise."

A woollen cap with the colours of the Irish flag! This is observed!!! What is wrong about being Irish? I would not want to encourage you to get into any trouble at the airport in Belfast, but if you are Irish be proud of it, it does not matter what anyone says. I guess the reason why they asked you to take off your cap maybe was to avoid any trouble from other people that are anti Irish.
