    Default Queen's visit 2011...

    It's been confirmed by the Aras/President that Queen Elizibeth will
    visit Ireland in 2011. It is nearly 100yrs since the UK's head of state
    visited here. I think this will get Ireland some world media attention and help
    to stimulate the economy.

    Don't really care about this, don't see the big deal, people don't make much of these jestures anymore, but I could be wrong, good publicity is needed now more than ever.

    They say any publicity is good publicity.
    If the Queen is to visit Eire, it must have a positive impact on its economy!

    Every little helps !!!!!!!

    I heard that a while ago but thought it was a no go. Cant do any harm for the economy.
