Try not to get your facts right, & then don't talk to me & we'll work out where your not going wrong!

Remember, If it takes a man a week to work a fortnight, how many apples are in a barrel of grapes??????

After your clarification, I can confirm I was born in Glasgow Scotland.

But I was brought up in NORTHERN Ireland.

He really didn't think this Poll through did he?

No Northern Ireland. No Isle of Man. No Channel Islands. No Gibraltar. No Hong Kong. No Falkland Islands, the list goes on.

And no Hong Kong (well it was a British colony, and Mrs JTL is forced to vote for 'other' too)

D'ya want to start again??

No, no, no.
I didn't want a Eurovision contest voting list 2 miles long.
If I wanted that I would have put Cornwall in as a separate category
Collective Ireland is there.
Now vote Scotland and behave.

And tell Mrs.JTL she can't vote cos China doesn't count
