Subject: RE: BS: Gerry Adams - my hero
Once on holiday with some friends who lived in the vicinity of the area where the Battle of the Boyne took place, I asked my mate to show me the actual battle site. He knew the area well but even then had difficulty in finding it. He told me that every year, Oranges from the North tear their hair out looking for it. Incidentally there is a town in Africa which holds Orange Marches every 12th of July and even send delegates to the lodges in the Six. No it isn't South Africa. There was an article in the Guardian a few years ago replete with photos.
