After thirty years working in public safety and emergency response, I always like to stop in and see the police and fire people and thank them for a job well done. The Irish police are called the Gardi. Thanks to Margie Ryan Murphy and her crew for the tour and for letting me do a test run on the phone. It was great craic!  

See wiki's explanation: "An Garda Síochána (Irish pronunciation: [ən ˈɡaːrd̪ə ˈʃiːxaːn̪ˠə]; meaning "the Guardian of the Peace"), more commonly referred to as the Gardaí or "the guards" ([ˈɡaːɾˠd̪ˠiː] "Guardians"), is the police force of Ireland. The service is headed by the Garda Commissioner who is appointed by the Irish government."

They gave me these two cool badges! They say, "Guardians of the Peace."
