21. Ahh it to me has always been about class not religion |
|
People need to know that Theobold Wolfetone was a protestant as was Charles Stewart Parnell. Its a mix honestly to me of those two, but not exclusively about religion.

I've met at least two other DUers who were at least part Lituanian.
Maybe we can start a DU Lituanian Group.

no replies to the irish cuisine, which can only mean one thing: they don't have any worth mentioning.
And no, beer is not a cuisine.
