"People living in Northern Ireland are the happiest in the UK - and that is official."

If we're really all quite happy and content

    This "story" has been done to death, it was only a few months ago we were told Fermanagh people were the happiest in the world.

    Having worked extensively in Fermanagh for many a year I can confirm that they are indeed the happiest people I have ever met in our wee country :)

    This is mainly due to the fact that they only have 1 gear and that is "Tomorrow" :o the !!!!!!s never get stressed or worked up about anything, they are without doubt the easiest going folk I know.

    Maybe the rest of us are doing it all wrong :rotfl:
    I am trying, honest;) very trying according to my dear OH:rotfl:

    Maybe they aren't happy now because of the whole Fracking malarkey that's going on.....

    The reason they are so happy is, because they are all drugged up to eye balls with anti depressions.:D

    I couldn't understand his accent either.

    I think we're happy but I'd be happier in Fermanagh I think. Maybe I wouldn't think that if I had an hour to drive into Enniskillen to find a supermarket but I have that yearning for the country life. Just me, the wife and a few sheep.
