Ireland

I come from Monaghan and generally there are no post codes or as they say in America zip codes, usually if you were sending a letter from another country to Ireland it would look like this : John Doe

10 Park street

Co. Monaghan

Republic , Ireland

And the letter finds its way there. Now if you were to send the letter to a residence in the country where there is no house numbers it would look like this :

John Doe

Stranooden

Co. Monaghan

Republic , Ireland

The local postman just knows all the residence and the mail makes its way to you with out post codes or zip codes.

The salary for the Irish president is about €250,000 per year.

Ireland's head of state is a president. An Irish president's term is 7 years, and they can do a maximum of 2 terms. The president can be elected by the people, or returned automatically if there are no other candidates. This happened in 2004 with the current president Mary McAleese, who was return unopposed for her second term.

The Irish head of government is called a Taoiseach. After a general election a government is formed. The head of the party that has the majority of seats or in the case of a coalition government, the party with most seats will be elected Taoiseach by the parliament, known as the Dáil. A general election must be held at least once every 5 years.

For general elections Ireland has a complicated system known as Proportional Representation with a Single Transferable Vote. Ireland also has multi-seat constituencies, where 3, 4 or 5 candidates are elected, depending on the constituency.

The summer months of May to August are the warmest time in Ireland; temperatures range between approximately 10C to 17C. May and June have the least rain and are less changeable on a day-to-day basis than the climate during the rest of the year.

It rains a great deal of the time. The Irish term, 'a soft day', describes the soft, misty days which prevail throughout the year, when all is green and grey. The term is an interesting comment on the Irish character; the English would generally refer to grey, drizzly and chilly days as 'miserable weather'.

Snow in December is uncommon in Ireland although last year we got up to 15 inches of it in some parts.

It snows just about every year in January and February, on many occasions being very heavy on the East coast. But the West Coast on the Atlantic is exposed to the Gulf stream which means it gets little snow.
