    oh, and the title of the thread is a bit presumptious as the team represent all the Provences of Ireland.

    Also, I was not meaning to partition the island by referring to it that way. Again, I was just using "eire" as a short-hand of Ireland. Again, sorry to have offended.

    It can be difficult to understand all the nuances as I have said before.

    Cyprus could be seen as another example. It's a divided island and Nicosia is a divided city, complete with no mans land. I took a photo from the viewpoint (which incidentally The President of Ireland had seen herself only a couple of minutes before - she was visiting and I saw her!)

    I posted the picture of my photo blog site and got a complaint from a Turkish Cypriot - I had made no political comments, simply a factual one. If somebody reads something political into a factual statement you cannot win, but neither should you feel bad about it.
