Hi all, you can get the Six Counties if you go via United Kingdom. The Republic isn't listed but you can do a search anyway and run an address....however it depends where you would be searching. For instance Dublin comes up, but when it comes to smaller towns in the Republic it is kind of hit or miss, but check it out anyway.
