I have been looking at the TT website and reading
the messages posted to the bulletin board there. One
message that particularly caught my attention was someone
saying that they wanted to ride up to Joey's funeral,
but was a bit concerned as they had Dublin plates,
and could anyone recommend a "safe" route for them to
ride. A number of messages came back which read along
the lines of sod the plates, we want to go too and we
have Belfast plates. Can't we put this trouble behind
us and travel to the funeral together? It's nice to
read, but it's just a shame that it takes a death to
make it happen.
