    If that doubled as a map of phone prefixes it would be so cool.

      Yeah, missed opportunity that would have actually been useful at the time.

    Didn’t realize Letterkenny was a town in Ireland too

      Yes! A lot of places in Ontario are named after places in Ireland, England, Scotland etc actually.

        OK, now this is embarrassing. I also didn’t realize the show Letterkenny was named for a town in Ontario. I thought it was a Broken Lizard or Kids in the Hall situation 🤦‍♂️

          It’s a great show! My favourite of all shows. It’s based on the town of Listowel Ontario though.

    I thought the bit in the north was a part of another country?

      Interesting little ditty: At the time that phone was out, The Republic of Ireland held a constitutional claim on the whole island. Only with the peace process was it agreed to remove that claim.

      It’s calling it ‘Derry’ too so the phone is firmly taking a stance.
