Me too. I don't get it - where could you possibly find a more laid back, mild mannered inoffensive guy than me?

I must say, Lolly, that's a side of you I never expected. It's always the quiet ones that surprise you.

Do phrases uttered by Groundskeeper Willie from the Simpsons count?
"I warnja. Didn't I warnja? That colored chalk was forged by Lucifer himself"
or
"Git yer haggis, right here. Chopped hart n' lungs. Boiled in a wee sheeps' stomach. Taste's as good as it sounds. Good for what ails ya.... ugh. Ugh."
or
"BONJOURRRRRR, ye cheese-eatin' surrender monkeys!" -

Poor old Dubhlinn as just got home after a eight hour shift, which came very soon after a eight hour intensive meeting with Arthur Guinness and John Jameson. The phrase which would best describe me at this moment is that quaint Dublin expression- " You look like a boiled sh*t."

Apropos to earlier posts, when the Pouges first burst onto the scene they were known as Pog ma Thoin. They were getting a fair bit of airplay on B.B.C. Radio 2 until somebody there sussed out what it meant. A quick meeting was arranged between all concerned parties and lo and behold, The Pouges were born!!

Indeed,well I am going to take myself off the boil and simmer down a bit with a starter of Taj Mahal and then try a main course of Tom Waits and some doc Watson for dessert. That usually does the trick.

slan,
D.

Who are these Pouges? Not to be confused with the Pogues?

Gimme a break, this morning I could not speak now I cannot spell. In my book ( Not a dictionary, I hasten to add!), that is an improvement.

Tings can only get bitter,

I've joined the "pants on fire" gang - "Ta mo bhriste tri thine"; something about a few bricks shy of a load.
How does one pronounce "thoin"?

So, it was the Pogues. Cool trivia, right.

Hóink?

The o-acute looks more "Celtic" to me

Thoin is pronounced as HONE

Short and Sweet,

Love and Pogues,

I got 'Ta me air meisce'

,which is probably what Shane MacGowan would get,unless of course he got 'I am Pornographic (Shaun o'Graphic?)-Before 'Pogue Mahone',he was in a band called 'The Nips' (short for the N*pple erectors,had to be careful there,these things have caused quite a furore>Eddie and Finbar Furore,anyone?

< lately).
No one could accuse him of sexism,cos the band was named by the female Bass player!
