What county in Northern Ireland has registered the least same-sex civil partnerships?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Although the Northern Ireland Statistics and Research Agency publishes extensive statistics on civil partnerships in Northern Ireland, it does not break the data down by county. Instead, it breaks the figures down by "area" or "local government district." Therefore, it is not possible to deduce the exact number of civil unions registered within the boundaries of any specific county in Northern Ireland. See related link below.

What is the mystery of Flannan Isle?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The mystery on Flannan isle is the disappearance of 3 light house maintenance men who vanished during a 2 week "tour of duty" on the isolated island during December of the year 1900. There was a system in place where, if in case of a emergency, a flag could be put up in the lighthouse, which could be seen from a fixed telescope on the mainland. But there was a terrible fog which lasted , i believe, almost the whole 2 weeks, preventing potential help from coming, if they needed it.

One night a passing boat reported that the light was out. It had seen it on the night before, and with no reason for it to be out, it was curious.

Hearing it was out Robert Muirhead, the lighthouses Superintendent, quickly charted a boat to the island to check on his men. Fighting furious winds and wild seas, he finally reached the island, and the storm was said to have stopped once he arrived. He and a small rescue crew entered the lighthouse to see if the maintnence men were OK.

They were nowhere to be found. Upon inspection of the lighthouse, there were some strange things. First of all, the clock inside the lighthouse was completely stopped. there was no fire or even evidence of a fire in the fireplace. And maybe strangest, there was a full meal cooked and prepared and set on the table, but not touched at all. They then searched the entire island with no success. The 3 men seemed to have just vanished into thin air.

SPOILER ALERT!! ANSWER TO THE MYSTERY.

-if u want it to stay a mystery i would suggest stop reading, if not read on!!

In the days after the incident, Muirhead did a full investigation on the island and found that the storm had cause substantial damage to the jetty and railings and that the moor ropes and crane handles had been washed away and the ropes had become entangled.

Their conclusion! the men had gone out into the storm to try and fix the problem before it became a bigger problem. They had gone quite close to the islands high cliffs. It was likely that while working, 1 of two things could have happened. 1- The strong wind had blown them off the rocks and into the sea. or 2- a high wave swept them out.

After finding out that the wind was blowing UPHILL that night, it was concluded that a freak wave swept them off the rocks and out to sea, never to be seen again.

Some pages on the internet suggest that aliens, the supernatural, or even sea monsters got the men. Truth is, the sea claimed them.

***By the way to add a little realism to it, go to google maps, type in Flannan Isle, and zoom in to inspect the island. its pretty crazy.

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

A British 1982 (7 coin) Uncirculated Mint Set including the 50 Pence down to a Half Pence including the newly issued 20 Pence coin, might fetch up to £9 GBP.

There were 205,000 sets issued.

A British 1982 (7 coin) Proof Set including the 50 Pence down to a Half Pence including the newly issued 20 Pence coin, might fetch up to £12 GBP.

There were 106,800 sets issued.

It should be noted that the value of any "coin set" is dependant on it being in its original packaging and condition.

The values quoted are the best possible for the best specimens in their grades, but may be significantly lower due to varying demand for the coin and the prevailing economic climate. A reputable coin dealer will be able to give a more accurate valuation based on inspection of the coin.

How do you call a landline number in Ireland from a UK mobile?

Asked by Wiki User

Country code for Ireland: +353

So, remove any leading zero from the Irish number then prefix it with 011 353.

What code do you use when sending a fax from England to northern Ireland?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

You dial a fax number on a fax machine exactly the same way you would dial the same number on a landline telephone at the same location.

To dial from Ireland to Arkansas you will need to dial:

00 + 1 + area code (3 digits) + fax number (7 digits)

if the fax number you have is 10 digits, then it already includes the area code.

Arkansas area codes are 501, 479, and 870.

(The plus sign means "insert your international access prefix here." From a GSM mobile phone, you can enter the number in full international format, starting with the plus sign. The most common prefix is 00, but North America (USA, Canada, etc.) uses 011, Japan uses 010, Australia uses 0011, and many other countries use different prefixes.)

How do you call a UK mobile number from a Ireland landline?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

For many years, there were special "shortcut" codes to dial some parts of the Republic of Ireland from the UK. However, you now must dial the number in full international format.

Replace the trunk prefix 0 of the Republic of Ireland number with telephone country code +353. If you are calling on a mobile phone, just enter the number in international format, beginning with +353 (including the plus symbol). If you are on a landline phone, replace the trunk prefix 0 with 00 353.

Note that these instructions apply even if you are making a local call from Northern Ireland to a nearby part of the Republic of Ireland, such as from Newry to Dundalk.

How do you text an Irish mobile from a UK mobile?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If someone else is calling you, they should dial your number the same way they do when you are in Ireland. The mobile network will find you automatically.

If you are calling a number in England, or anywhere in the UK, the best way to dial it is using the full international number format. Replace the trunk prefix 0 of the UK number with country code +44 (including the plus sign).

If you are calling a number in Ireland, the best way is again to use the full international format. Replace the trunk prefix 0 of the Irish number with country code +353.

If you are calling a number in Italy, dial the country code +39 followed by the full Italian number. Do not drop the leading 0 of the Italian number. (Italy is an exception to the general rule.)

To call some other country, use the full international format, starting with the plus sign and country code, then the city code (usually, but not always, dropping the trunk prefix 0) and subscriber number.

(The plus sign means "insert your international access prefix here." From a GSM mobile phone, you can enter the number in full international format, starting with the plus sign. The most common prefix is 00, but North America (USA, Canada, etc.) uses 011, Japan uses 010, Australia uses 0011, and many other countries use different prefixes.)

How do you call a mobile phone in northern Ireland from the republic of Ireland?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

In general, you remove the first zero of any UK number and prefix it with 00 44. For example:

  • 028 59491192 would be dialled as 00 44 28 59491192
  • 07456 123456 would be dialled as 00 44 7456 123456

If you are dialling a Northern Ireland landline with the standard (028) area code, you can simply replace the '028' with '048' as a shortcut. For example:

  • 028 59491192 could be dialled as 048 59451192

What is the code to text Ireland from the UK?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Irish mobile numbers all start with 08. The zero there is dropped when dialling from abroad. The international dialling code for Ireland is 353. That must be preceded by 00. So to ring or text an Irish mobile number, such as 089 999 9999 from Britain, you would dial:

00 353 89 999 9999

So the basic rule is to drop the first zero on the actual mobile number and then put 00 353 before it.

What is the telephone area code for Northern Ireland?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

All of Northern Ireland is UK area code 028, which becomes +44 28 from outside the UK. The remainder of the number is always 8 digits. Belfast numbers are usually either 90xx xxxx or 95xx xxxx.

As a special shortcut code, callers in the Republic of Ireland can dial Northern Ireland by substituting the code 048 for 00 44 28.

Mobiles in Northern Ireland use the same codes as mobiles in the rest of the UK. Numbers begin with +44 74 through +44 79.

(The plus sign means "insert your international access prefix here." From a GSM mobile phone, you can enter the number in full international format, starting with the plus sign.
