    lol I always have a hard time adusting to people refering to Border Collies as "Collies" , around her if someone says "Collie" they are always refering to a lassie type collie lol so I always get confused when I post pics of my Border Collies and have people tell me they have a friends who Collie looks just like mine and I sit there going "eh? ....ooohhh they mean my BC" lol

    do you guys have Pyrenean Shepherds there? (AKA Berger des Pyrenees/Petite Berger/Pyrenean Sheepdog) they are supposed to be more common in Europe(well in some places, I am not sure about Ireland) lol they are so unknown here that even diehard dog people have never heard of em

    Have to love the different names peple have for different things lol. Trunks are called boots here aswell .

    A friend of mine worked in a guest house somewhere near Cork, i forget the name of the place but will look it up... Ireland is a very beautiful country i would love to visit one day .

    And yep Border Collies are Border Collies and 'lassie type' Collies are just called rough or smooths .

    Tee hee, it was quite amusing reading this thread and seeing the confusion over what a car boot is. I swear American English an English English are different languages Everyone says 'boot' over here, I've never really heard it called anything else until now!
