"There's still the small matter of six counties to be sorted yet - unless we want a replay."

True enough Jim, but unless people (especially the people of Ireland) get their heads out of the past and into the now and the future, that matter never will be 'sorted out'.

Constantly replaying past wrongs won't 'sort out' anything - all it does is reinforce peoples' inbred hatreds. Finger-pointing and blame-laying is not positive and will not get anything 'sorted out'.
