Do you know where you live?
That may seem like an odd question, but judging by some of the stuff Keith’s found in our backend systems it might be a valid question to ask.
NB: I have no way of seeing who supplied this information as we just ran queries on a section of the table…
Ireland has 32 counties. 26 counties in the Republic and 6 in Northern Ireland.. or at least it used to have… According to some people the land mass has expanded considerably. While I know that some of the confusion may stem from wording on a website I still fail to see how “region/county” could have led to some of these gems (in all cases the country selected was “Ireland”)

Just this morning I got a letter from Revenue addressed to the previous owner of the house. Despite the fact we’ve lived her for almost 3 years!
Revenue certainly don’t know where those people live!
I take it ‘na’ n/a’ and ‘none’ were from God?
I remember once a letter arriving in RTE addressed to
webmaster
at
rte.ie
Now there is a crossing of cultures… 🙂
Donncha – I get stuff addressed to people who haven’t been at this address in years as well
Richard – Lovely combo
When I lived in Fota we used to get mail addressed to all sorts of weird variations on our surname and very little else… You’d be lucky if the word “Fota” appeared – yet we still got the mail
Maybe you mean it in jest but:

Huh? It’s not _part_ of Ireland.
