				Don't get me wrong, I'm not any kind of an Orangeman.

				Which ones do the bonfires? I'd say pallets are fucking expensive round those parts. For them that pay.

				Yeah, it's the pro-British, Orange or Ulstermen that do the bonfires.  But the really eerie thing, I'm told, is the drums.  I needed lengthy explanation to understand some of the history and symbolism of things like the Red Hand of Ulster, or why people who support a foreign government are called Loyalists.  But....that's Ireland.  
I will say, putting all BS aside, I've never been somewhere with more friendly people though.
