Despite what you might think most people in NI are no more religious
than in the rest of the UK. It`s just that the
nutters over here use religion as a reason to cause trouble where
elsewhere they would use skin colour or football. Most
of us aren`t interested in all this orange and green malarkey and avoid
it wherever possible. Me, I`m going to Tewkesbury
this twelfth weekend for a Wars of the Roses battle. (I think it`s best-
avoid violence here by taking part in it in
England)
