You'll get sorted looney are you going to ibiza?.... Do ye lads up north get a choice of a british or irish passport and can you have both if you want??

Going to ayia napa for a week, with a few posters. 8 of us in total going with another few lads coming two days later.

Aye we get the choice of the passports but some people wouldn't be seen dead wityh a brit one, you might as well surrender!! 

I was thinknig about getting a brit one at the last min there because it was quick but they have interviews an all these days I think so I just said f**k it, stick to what I know. I dunno what the rules are regarding holding the two, I wouldn't think you could. I was thinking about sending off the two applications there and seeing which would be quicker but I am sure there would have been problems. Look at Darren Gibson!

[MayoMan]

Was in ayia napa last year with a few lads, some craic, great place.... went to ibiza this year it wasn't as good... Hire a quad over there, there great fun, drive down past nissy beach and take a road to the left go down to the end of the road and there's a dirt track with jumps on it, its mad.... i'll go back there again next year if i'm not engaged... jais women hate the lads holidays... 

[Our Nail Loney]

Luckily enough I booked this holiday a while before I srtated officially going with the woman now!!

Unfortunately we lost a few fellas from last years holidays to long term relationships. RIP lads...

[Our Nail Loney]

My da seems to think I can get a birth certificate from Craigavon Civic Centre tomorrow... Would be a lot handier than going to belfast as I have to head to dublin after!!! I have known I need this passport for ages!! The most disorganised person in the world.
