Visiting where my mother grew up.
Having lunch and told the innkeeper my mom grew up here. He asks where Im from in the States.
I tell him North Carolina, and he bursts into laughter, Trump supporter, eh?
Needless to say, I set him straight.

(21,598 posts)They are most worried about the possible reintroduction of a hard border in Ireland resulting in a restart of violence. One of my British friends owns homes both here in the US and in Northern Ireland, so he has an interesting and informed perspective on events.
Enjoy your Sunday lunch in Wales!
