Personally the six counties deli-counters are far superior to the free state. Some counters are excellent while others are crap. Any tips for a man who travels a lot on the best delis or ones to avoid. The Milestone in Rathfriland is the best I have ever been too IMO.
+1 on the milestone
unbelievable grub in that place. Second best thing in Down behind the road out of there ;)

Truth hurts

Creightons at Balmoral is a 6/10, could do better

Centra leads, the rest follow
Martin's Centra out at fortwilliam docks in belfast was a good one, followed by Centra Malone road, Botanic Avenue etc

This is a fair point and one that needs to be considered in any future UI discussions. We'll only give up our public sector if there's a commitment from the south to up the stakes in the deli department!!

There was a book review on Today FM the other day reviewing a book about Breakfasts in Ireland - the reviewer was championing how much better a breakfast was up north because it included Soda bread, potato bread & beans - totally agree

One of lifes great mysteries how potato bread and fried soda (the white version) never caught on down south for breakfast.

I love a good head of cabbage. I have a field that is split in half by the border and the cabbage in the northern part of the field is far superior to the cabbage in the southern half.

Hope you have your paperwork in order for moving it from one end of the field to the other!
