i wonder if there are grants available for writing english phonetically in a dublin/cork/galway accent though. roides.

No but Roddy Doyle got a booker prize out of it didn't he? It's been years since I've read anything by him so maybe I'm incorrectly remembering that he writes his dialogue phonetically.

thye must be gasping for immigrants if theres only 24 questions. how long would it take anyone with a bit of patience to work out 24 answers from that.

they need some questions about soccer, eastenders and the Beatles to round it off.

Yeah but its so easy for them to deny citizenship based upon the grounds of uncertainity of good character standing. Well I know the way it is here anyways, you need at least two Irish citizens to vouch for you and then if you have legal disciplines your application may be denied also. A parking or speeding ticket could swing it

i'd imagine an Irish citizenship test would have us all grasping for half-remembered primary school history lessons about The Salmon of Knowledge and the Fianna

What do you have to get to pass?

That is to say, Scotland can never not be in Britain.

I got 10 right, and I can be a UK citizen any time I like, haha!

'Ulster Scots is a dialect which is spoken in Northern Ireland.'

Of course this is false, it's an official language

well, i'm glad to say I failed.

ah here, I thought this was just whether if you had a nordy ma you could get a passport. Not a whole hape of questions about constitutional electoral areas and snores.
