Irish accent is so different from the "Queen's accent" which is the "perfect English accent"! It seems so genuine ;) I really like it! "The Queen's accent" can sometimes seems to be a bit vain and arrogant, but the Irish accent seems to be more friendly ^_^ But to people who are only use hearing the "Queen's accent" or the American one, Irish accent is harder to understand!
I hope to go to Ireland in July or August ;)
