Just been sitting on the prom ay Rossall beach watching the sea defence work and I thought, if Trump can change the name of the Gulf of Mexico, why can’t we change the Irish Sea to the English Sea.
Yeah, it has to be a very specific type of day, but when it happens it's glorious and (I'm biased) there's nowhere better.Played golf at Knott End a couple of weeks ago in glorious weather but with that annoying haze that meant the view was restricted over to Fleetwood. The Lakes and Furness were nowhere to be seen.
I'm all for an annoying haze if it blits out Codland!Played golf at Knott End a couple of weeks ago in glorious weather but with that annoying haze that meant the view was restricted over to Fleetwood. The Lakes and Furness were nowhere to be seen.
Maybe the French will change the name of the English Channel to the French Channel.Just been sitting on the prom ay Rossall beach watching the sea defence work and I thought, if Trump can change the name of the Gulf of Mexico, why can’t we change the Irish Sea to the English Sea.
The French already call the Channel, La Manche (the sleeve).Maybe the French will change the name of the English Channel to the French Channel.
Does the name really matter?
Nobody can own the sea we should all try and and do our bit to keep it clean and protect it and then respect and enjoy it.
Basically call it what you want from wherever your viewing it from, doesn't change what it is.The French already call the Channel, La Manche (the sleeve).
And apparently the Spanish, Italians and Germans also have a variant of the French name. (I didn’t know this last bit until I Googled it just now).
