Oh you know me so well?

[WatWatWat]

When the cure for a hangover is get drunk again.

[Mature Temptation]

You say 'dat' instead of 'that' and another million words similar.

You say 'taught' instead of 'thought' and don't realise the difference.

You put your hand in your pocket to pay for something and just cant bear to bring the money in your pocket out and wait for someone else to pay. (Usually someone non Irish).

You forget there is actually an 'h' in the alphabet.



...................... and what is wrong with thanking a bus driver ??

[madjack]

Maybe we are often mocked but i can speak my native language fluently, our ancestors beat the black and tans. I suppose we are a bit slow when we pay others €200 for an hours work.
