However, you’d imagine people in the UK would have a better idea of the layout of our lovely island considering we’re next door neighbours and all that. Apparently not.

The Daily Mail covered the story about Benji the gay bull from Mayo today and on this evidence, their Irish geography needs a bit of work.
