The name Loughinisland still stands out. I was in Down a while ago driving around and saw a sign for the village and was thinking about what happened. Awful . At least things are 'normal'  now.

I have to say as a 23 year old it's hard to believe what N.Ireland used to be like, especially reading the comments here, I went to university over in England and was even friends with a girl whos father is a British soldier, either its a completely different world over there or times have seriously changed.

Just reading some of the stuff on here and it's easy to see why there are different attitudes to some issues between north & south. I can honestly say that very few people living in the south have ever countenanced the type of stuff described on here, hats off to those who have and who have lived through it

Thanks for putting that up Gabriel, I remember that night very well, I was at the Down game the next day and met a few boys from loughinisland who I went to school with. The football was an afterthought to be honest. I was 19 at the time and a 19 year old in the north now have more or less grew up in a different country thankfully.
