That (London) reminds me of a comment I made the other day to Sam regarding
a mellow temperament and those from the UK.   I said that actually having
bombs dropped on you for long periods of time, or personally knowing those
that did, probably tends to make other negative aspects of life seem pretty
trivial. Smiley

Well, I'm too young for "dropped" part myself ...but we had 30 odd years
of Fenians after that and I remember them all too well. They came within
1000m and 15 minutes of turning me into hamburger twice Wink

Well, let me just say that I don't wish to get into the middle of *that*
argument.

Personally I think Fenian is far too a broad term to be used in that
context, as its generally used in Northern Ireland as a derogatory term
towards Irish Catholics (whether nationalist or not - north or south), the
vast majority of which would not support nor ever have anything to do with
the IRA or subsequent splinter factions etc.

I was there and I remember!  Of course I was very young Smile
As a young person I accepted it as "normal" i.e. getting up every
night to move down into the bomb shelter.

Good call. Getting in the middle of 6lbs of semtex surrounded by a
couple of hundred 6 inch nails could ruin your whole day Wink

I am from Scotland and that term (to me) is political, not religious.
The fact that most Irish Nationalists happen to be Catholic is
incidental - just as it is incidental that most Indian Nationalists
are/were Hindu.

Like I said, it has nothing to do with religion. It is a corruption of a
Gaelic word (Fian) which refers to robbers, bandits, brigands and
"uncivilised elements" in general (the latter being a Scots Gaelic
implication that may not exist in Irish).
