http://www.goqradio.com/news/q-radio-local-news/exclusive-plans-revealed-for-joint-northern-ireland-visit-by-the-pope-and-the-queen/

QuoteQ Radio understands that the Pope and the Queen will visit Northern Ireland jointly next summer.

Pope Francis, who's 80, is already scheduled to visit the Republic in 2018 for the World Meeting of Families.

Today we can reveal that not only will the Head of the Catholic church travel north of the border but he will be joined by the supreme governor of the Church of England who turns 92 in April.

It will be a deeply symbolic and powerful moment - The Pope and the Queen appearing side by side before a divided society.

Last year the then Deputy First Minister Martin McGuinness revealed that the 80 year old Pontiff WOULD cross the border.

At the time - the then First Minister, Arlene Foster, said she would meet him.

Q Radio sources have revealed that plans for the joint visit are being worked on.

The location is being kept under wraps - it may be Armagh or Belfast-  but it certainly will be in Northern Ireland.

Meanwhile,

The Archbishop of Armagh, the Most Reverend Richard Clarke, says a joint visit by the Pope and the Queen to Northern Ireland would be "remarkable and wonderful".

The head of the Anglican communion in Ireland was responding to a Q Radio news report that plans are being drawn up for such a visit next August.

The Queen of England does not do joint appearances, she has no equal.

She may not do joint appearances, but she fairly snorts up the ould coke, through her own rolled-up currency too.

Or the parochial house, perhaps?

The use of the word "disgraced" will kick off a bit of controversy on here, I would say.

Speaking of Pope Francis - how does Tony feel that a huge % of the hierarchy of the church want him dead? These guys would be Tony's types of dudes. Judgemental and slaves to doctrine so it begs the question - Tony, do you also hate the Pope?

Just look at JP The First. Bumped off, hardly even managed his first pay cheque.

With Jamie Bryson & the fleg protest rent-a-mob in attendance. Good day out in prospect.  Snarlene in a mantilla, anyone?

Even worse.....I got a docket through the door the other day from the postman, saying they had something for me in the Post Office, it has insufficient postage & could I go to the centre of Belfast, to pick it up, while paying £2 to cover the missing postage? Erm, no, I won't, as it's clearly an Xmas card.

If you post Xmas cards out, AT LEAST PAY THE POSTAGE.

Pope doesn't give 100% on his travels, obviously.  Plays 4-5-1 in the hope of coming away with a point. The masses are in for a bit of the ould papal bull if he's not going to put much effort in.

Sure there's never been any "touching" in a Catholic church.
If there ever was, a confidentiality clause or 2 soon drew a line under it. All sorted.

This is exactly where light moderation is needed. By having none it's emboldened someone like Ferron to feel he has impunity to drag a discussion off topic and swing the spotlight on himself. He's clearly not going to be the bigger man so even acknowledging any comment is pointless. It's the moderators that should be contacted.

You could try that but he appears to have bought them off.

I'd a player give off to me the whole game, his team was getting stuffed and he questioned every call by me! Possibly 20 points in it but it was my fault!

That was a bit like you, in your pomp. You never kept quiet the whole time. Poacher turned gamekeeper!

Reasonable enough comment, probably.  When I was reffing a bit, we had to put up with 60 minutes of non stop yapping & dog's abuse, but you weren't allowed to open your mouth back. Mind you, a well placed one liner usually kept them quiet, for a while.

Nobody surprised at Russia's draw?

If they do not make it through......Putin will hold a few Polonium tea parties. That's gonna concentrate minds.

Watched the draw there, fcuk that's an awful lot of boring group games and they are going to expand it the next time  :o

England drew Belgium, Tunisia and Panama, they couldn't mess that up could they  :D

Hopefully, they can. Early exit, listen to the endless blubbering.
