Okay (still asking questions rather then making a statement), during the conflict with the IRA. How often was Wales or Scotland bombed or terrorized? I really don't know this answer but thought it was mainly England and Northern Ireland being attacked.

I can't think of any IRA terrorist attacks that were in Scotland or Wales (?).

They did also hit what I suppose were soft targets in England, by which I mean places that had very little security systems in place, such as Warrington in Cheshire.

I heard three bombs go off whilst living in London. Hyde Park, Harrods, and Victoria Station, the last being the one that killed a customer of mine.
