Ireland
is the third-largest island in Europe, and the twentieth-largest island in the world. It lies to the north-west of continental Europe and is surrounded by hundreds of islands and islets. To the east of Ireland, separated by the Irish Sea, is the island of Great Britain. Politically, the sovereign country of Ireland (described as the Republic of Ireland) covers five-sixths of the island, with Northern Ireland (part of the United Kingdom) covering the remainder in the north-east.

And for some fun, an external LINK to the "seasons" or Ireland
This is the new guide to the Irish seasons. All other references to 'Spring', 'Autumn' etc are now obsolete and we will be moving forward with this new EU model.
Cold wet season, summers, warmer wet season (tourist season)...
New season guide issued by the Irish Gubbermint.
