    My Granda worked in the Shipyard as a blacksmith's apprentice. Never got any further than that because of being a Catholic. The bad old days, eh...

      At least people believed in things back then... Even death was easier for people to face.. now people starve on the streets instead of being hung or killed in some way for the crimes they commit

      Your talking shite, Joe Cahill the infamous muderous provo worked in H&W. Got a bit payment before he died through asbestos poisoning. Jusy like loads of other people from different communities in Belfast.

    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!

      That was a Saturday afternoon five and a half days work, maybe the reason part of it is a museum is because they can get cheap Chinese labour now?
