From the BBC/NI:
Seven years ago this week, the pro-Agreement parties were celebrating.
Northern Ireland had said "yes" to the Good Friday Agreement, signalling a new marriage between unionists and nationalists.
The Agreement referendum was seven years ago this week
In May 2005, the Good Friday Agreement is suffering more than the seven-year itch.
That's how long it has been since since the 22 May 1998 referendum.
The politicians who negotiated that deal are no longer the main players. While some say the deal is dead, others insist that reports of its demise have been exaggerated.
