D e the heading "Hibernian hauliers" Mused on your Scottish IRTE Show report (CM 25 September-1 October): where was the show held? Dublin? Belfast?
Hibernia is the Roman name for Ireland, Scotland being Caledonia. You could have used the expression "Kelts" or "Celts"...risking the wrath of Rangers supporters! Hibernian is the other football club in Edinburgh, so you have affronted Hearts fans forbye. When referring to North Britons it would be best to use onesyllable words (ie, "Scots"). Long before you get this I will be back home in Friockheim (Freekum)...not in Holland or Denmark, but Angus (Tayside) near Arbroath!
