    I saw a show about a young vet with the thickest Roscommon accent going who had moved up to NI. He was complaining about the local accent and how he couldn't understand it.
    I had to laugh :D

    "Oh no, you didn't".. :pac:

    Didn't 'discern' that it was a Roscommon accent that is (could've been a Galway, Mayo one perhaps, or another County even...)

    I'll put it another way.. 'Did he say he was from Roscommon, or was it an accent that to your mind had to be a Roscommon one?'

    A friend of mines showed up at mine and dropped off a load of chocolates and sweets because I've gotten bad news and she wanted to cheer me up.

    Some people have heart that are made of gold.

    That's what I thought :D It was mentioned that the chap was from Roscommon, and therefore there is no 'distinct thick Roscommon accent'. The esteemed poster above im humble o would not have clocked the 'locale of the thick accent' had the person's County not been mentioned.

    TH that I'm right about this :pac:

    I'll be more TH if nowt is said to moi about having a 'contra to someone else's TH opinion' :p

    When you see a spider lower herself down on a single strand, then lie on her back in mid air and let all her legs hang loose and twirl around and around :)
    So chilled out, I bet if you spoke spider she would be saying 'Ah, I've been looking forward to this all day'.

    My local bakery has started selling jars of cake, red velvet and fresh cream. Cake and jars, together at last :)
    Now I'm off to the TA thread because all my TH posts seem to be cake related :pac:

    Flicking through Netflix and watching the trailer for 'Extras'. It's an episode with Kate Winslet in a habit talking 'dirty' to (character) Anne Frank and Joseph Goebbels. Forgot how funny that show could be.

    In a box upstairs I found four DVD-Rs with loads of family photos backed up from old digital cameras and long gone laptop. Last seen in 2012 - we thought they were lost forever. Loads of special occasions captured (christening, Christmas, Halloween etc) along with scans of much older photos. Thankfully all still play ok and have now been backed up again to standalone hard drive.
