My father got me into the Belfast Corporation Band when I was a teenager (He was a Bus Conductor). I was discriminated against because I was a Protestant. So pull your heads in it was not all one way!

Funny how the gerry mandering has turned around against the Protestants today.15% of Catholics can now agree to get an Irish street sign put up without the consent of the other 75% agreeing to it .This is Belfasts City Councils doing.And at a time when theres no money for our health service.

Nothing to crow about! An apartheid state built on racism, gerrymandering, colonialism! Orange lot are the minority now and they don’t like it and still think they should rule. Those days are gone for good and never ever coming back! Better wake up!

Fair play to you young Lady, that takes some doing. Me, I would get seasick on my local Pond, something that my Father would laugh about. He served in The Merchant Navy during WW2. He took part in The North Atlantic Convoys going to Murmansk in Russia. I wish you well.

For reliable information suggest that you e-mail harbour commissioners. It’s the sort of boat that Red Bay (Antrim) might build.
