I have never stained so hard to try and understand someone speaking English. Almost like those movies where they have Irish Travelers - and I hope that isn't a Cultural Insult as it wasn't mean to be.

Anyway the 75% I did understand sounded really great so I am going to have to start and follow the Lord Of The Wing Blog more closely.

I had absolutely no problem understanding the LOTW - maybe because there was a lot trademark "wee swearies" or maybe it's because I'm a Taig Traveller myself
=D =D =D

Hey man -no need to apologize to me, your the guy people like me go to listen to, read, and learn from. I am not going to complain - (well I suppose I kind of did- but not in bad faith) the way I see it - it is an honor to have the opportunity to hear your toughts - even if I have to replay ever tenth word - and say to myself - what the fuck did he just say?

It is kind of funny- in that I am sitting here, english obviously is my first language = although I am not exactly winning any writing contests, and I am saying - ok I know he just said something in English but I have no idea what.

Didn't they release Trainspotting in the US with subtitles?

It can be hard though - I remember when I lived abroad and coming back to Ireland - you'd turn on the news and there'd be someone on with a really strong accent and it'd take you some time to tune in again.

When I lived in Hartford Connecticut they had an Irish Club in Glastonbury - and we would go there at times for Irishfest -and there were for sure a number of people who were directly off the boat or plane from Ireland - and I am not thinking from Dublin. You really really had to listen to what they said- it didn't help that they would at times use words that weren't english at all. Didn't get a good felling about a few of them - not most, but a few of them made me want to keep one hand on my wallet. 8O I got the sense from some of the conversations that the only reason they came to Connecticut was they would otherwise be put in Jail in Ireland.

Anyway I always have a blast at Irish Fest - The Irish - Apparently have some sort of Devine grant for knowing how to throw the biggest parties.

And the Lassies with Red Hair Don't hurt things either.

Happy New Year People.
