Yes, the posts are fun. And I like to see all the different quilting styles depending on the area of the world where the quilter is located. Anyone else notice that?

Ooooh Lacelady, I love the photo of your village! Mom and I have been wanting to take a trip to Ireland. And I LOVE the cemetery. As a genealogist, they are one of my favorite places. Mom teases me that on our last trip I found every small cemetery between Texas and Ohio! LOL

That's beautiful lacelady! :-)

What always cracks me up is how different the English language can be from one country to another. And then again, how similar some things are.

I agree blue! sometimes I'm afraid of using our "slang" as it differs within regions of the state. Don't want to offend anyone.

For example: Blues feet go clackety-clack,
Over here in the states, the trains go clackety clack. :lol:

It took me a while when I moved to Pa to grasp the 'localisms" too. The first time DH wanted to "red up" I was furious. Told him he isn't painting anything in my house red. Then found out that means cleaning up. We had been married for 10 years and we moved here and his whole vocabulary changed over night.
