Nor any other border neither Nigel.
I did some loads to both the North and the Republic but was never terrible hassled by the customs. No worse than everywhere else we had to do and a sight better than some.
But I remember that the border was looked on as a good Craik by many at that time. There were certainly tales of cattle walking one way and being driven back. There was even an official name for the period of the first introduction of the EU rules and tariffs. Intervention was it?
So I would have thought that a people so good humoured and adaptable as the Irish would scarcely be bothered by a wee thing like a Border, would they?
