Sorry, but my last name is not "Irish", but of Irish origin.

Well you should come over and have a look. Its a great place with a bit of everything. You could work in the heart of Dublin but live on a lot of land over looking some beautiful countryside.

You have no idea how much I've been thinking about moving to Ireland lately. Though, it could be partly because I've been re-watching "Ballykissangel".

I actually found out recently if my family had just made sure to get their Irish citizenship for each generation, I could technically be an Irish citizen! I wish I were

I tell you what, if I win the lottery tonight, one of my first purchases will without a doubt be a house in Ireland. I think in Co. Clare, maybe near Kilrush.

Barely. 3rd-great-grandmother was from Ireland. But I do celebrate that fraction with pride every St. Paddy's Day.

I am 100% Irish; all grandparents were from County Cork.
DH is 1/2 Irish (his mother's family were from County Cork) and his father was Blackfeet/Cherokee. He looks more Irish than Native American.

We would love to move to Ireland; but, failing that, we breed Irish cows (Dexters) on 60 acres here.
