Hey Siobhan (your new Irish name :wink: ) there's nothing wrong with being English!! My best mate's a Pom and the biggest love of my life (after wife and kids) is an English football team... 8)

Good people the English. 8)

Anyway, you are now Irish; I have officially christened you Irish. As it was done over the net I couldn't give you the traditional Dublin "Sharking" initiation so this will have to do... :wink: :wink: :wink:

You're welcome. Time, methinks, to get you started on the Irish language!! Well, the Dublin version;

"Howya" (how-eh-yah) - "Hello".

"Story" - "Hello".

"Geebag" - a twat.


That was just a few basics to keep you alive in Dublin. Here's the vital stuff;

"On the Batter" - Drinking alcohol over prolonged period of time.

"Session" - Drinking alcohol over prolonged period of time.

"On the rip" - Drinking alcohol over prolonged period of time.

"Lock in" - Drinking alcohol over prolonged period of time.

"Getting Langered" - Drinking alcohol over prolonged period of time.

"Getting Maggoty" - Drinking alcohol over prolonged period of time.

"Getting Ossified" - Drinking alcohol over prolonged period of time.

"On the tear" - Drinking alcohol over prolonged period of time.

"Getting Palatic" - Drinking alcohol over prolonged period of time.

"Getting Polluted" - Drinking alcohol over prolonged period of time.


And if all of the above goes tits up you will have to;

"Get Re-calibrated" - to spend time in Alcoholics Anonymous... :wink:
