beautiful tile!
Belfast is beautiful! Saw some great sights and met some fantastic folks visiting there. Thanks for sharing this link.
I had never heard of it either, thanks for the link! We were in Ireland in March and loved Northern Ireland, it was absolutely beautiful!
I picked up that guidebook when I was in Belfast and used it to find restaurants. I didn’t even think to look for them online. I love Belfast and hope to go back next summer.

Neat guide. And I look forward to reading about your journey by rail through Ireland.
Love the article and guide! I just gave it to a friend who is leaving for Ireland in 10 days.
Great Find!!
I love the in your pocket guides, they are really nifty! But what I am really looking forward to is your Ireland by rail trip, when we go we will be doing part of the trip by train and I am really eager to hear what to expect there.
I really want to win that tile. I really really do! I must have it! I must!
I wish I could say that I had heard of “Belfast in Your Pocket” but I hadn’t before you posted the info on the 5th anniversary. Thank you, Irish Fireside, for passing this on. I’m looking forward to reading it and since my grandfather was born in County Down, Northern Ireland, I’m sure I’ll find interesting reading in it about my family’s home turf. Happy 5th Anniversary to “Belfast in Your Pocket”! 
It was very helpful in 2007 and 2008 when I went both Dublin in your Pocket and Belfast in your pocket!
Thanks and Happy anniversary!
