Just caught up with this - very funny and interesting! K I love the big oak tree story; reminds me of when I lived briefly in Southern Ireland and ppl would say when giving directions things like 'turn right past Micheal O'Leary's house'! Who the ... is Micheal O'Leary, 'oh, you know yer man (!) - lives up the lane from Paddy Reilly'! aaarrrghhhh!!!
The 'so he did' on the end of everything is also typical Irish.
My 'bad' (one of them!) is saying 'I was sat' instead of 'I was sitting' - that's Northern English and I HATE it but can't seem to stop it! :shock: :lol:
