Your Favourite Northern Irish Place: The Result

Well, the votes have been passed to our Independent Polling Authority (yes, another unelected government quango) for ajudication and the results are now in.

The IPA have followed protocol and ignored non-Northern Irish places such as Spain and controversially…..bed. While the Mournes and the Glens of Antrim area have both been well represented, the result is a tie between Belfast and Mid-Ulster. Since Mid-Ulster isn’t particularly specific, and I’m calling the shots, it looks like we can officially call Belfast the winner.

While I wait for someone from Belfast City Council to pick up the prize - a free fish supper from Bishops, Shaftesbury Square! - I’d like to thank Ed, Sandra, Geoff, Paul, Nelly and Jimmy for helping spread the word. Much appreciated. That email I sent to the Stephen Nolan show didn’t do much good, so two fingers to him, eh?

Thanks to everybody who voted, especially the two others who voted for Ballycastle!

  1. Nice to find something we can all agree on (!) BU.

  2. Mr Levee: Mid-Ulster won. We demand a recount, “Since Mid-Ulster isn’t particularly specific, and I’m calling the shots” Oh Yea and Belfast is? Fix, Scam. If you ever came near the place-you wouid,nt want to go home again.

  3. Alright smart-arse! Give me a couple of examples of places to visit in Mid-Ulster.

    Be assured Parnell, I will visit them! Name some of the tourist spots in Mid Ulster and I’ll take a run across some day. Might even visit you myself!

    BTW: Does a Mid-Ulster fry taste any different to a regular Ulster Fry ;)

  4. Rubbish - Bed won fair and square. My bed’s in Northern Ireland and is a very specific place.

    I’ll take that as a moral victory for bed :)

  5. Did you hear that? Mr, “I’m Calling the Shots” Levee called me a S.A. Proves my point if he’s not being flippent or taking the piss then he’s pouring score on Gods finest people - the people of Mid-Ulster and alll this by way of a democratic distraction. Mid-Ulster won hands down.

    The award winning Mid-Ulster Fry is renowed the world over, so much so, George Bush, the Pope, the Queen and the President are reported to eat practically nothing else-alledgely!

    Regretfully: I don’t have enough computer ink to tell you all the places to visit in Irelands best kept secret and it would be wrong to name only a few so!!! if your a man of your word take the challenge . Its on me.

  6. Ah Parnell, I wasn’t taking the mickey! We North Antrim types don’t often stray in the direction of the Mid-Counties. I was genuinely, honestly seeking your advice on some of the best spots in the area to visit!

    Reason for asking about Mid-Ulster fries? If I drop by, I’ll be expecting one!

  7. Em- maybe you should have ruled with an iron fist to avoid there being about 76 different options ;) I voted for the Mournes- strange that it was beaten by Spain…

  8. We was robbed, I tell you, ROBBED!
