Re: September 13, 2009 We're Wales not UK lol. Theres a big difference over here between those that think they are part of the UK i.e. british and those who class themselves as Welsh first and not British lol
Corrections to the International Cruise made, Scott and Jen – USA Cal and Michelle - USA Ed and Holly - USA Kevin and Lana – USA Viv and "poor" Neil - UK Davy and Lisa – Northern Ireland Lynfa and Les – Wales “Sweet” Jo and Dan – UK No politics on the boat however, I have a hard enough time understanding Davy when he’s telling a joke. Normally the more I drink the better I can understand his accent. Cal
The Irish accent is the best in the world. We love it when we're over there eventhough it can be a little hard at times lol. 5 more days and we'll be there xxx
Haha Les, Personally I hate our accents, but if you understand Davy first time round your a good un. The two questions I am asked wherever we go - that includes at home, are 1. "How the hell do you stick him" and 2. "What did he say ?" Usually closely followed by "how come we can understand you but not him" I usually have to act as translator in Cancun. Cal You have improved with understanding Davy over the last few years - Im proud of you 12 more sleeps :lol: Counting staying in London as start of hols.
Mike, The wife and I loved your answer!!!!!!! Here is how the scene played out in the bar last year. Davy tells a joke, 1/3 of the group laughs Lisa translates, 1/3 of the group laughs, I translate for the last 1/3, and they laugh. Everyone takes a drink and we start all over, It was a great time!! Lisa, I just drink more Rum on vacation now, as when I first met Davy. Also if you, "stick him" around here, you go to jail for a weapons charge. OR you had a sex change operation. Cal
Mike, Absolutely love your reply - I think a lot of people have done that in the past also. Cal, So true with your reply. See you all soon. 11 more sleeps - yipee :wink:
PMSL I have the same problem with Les... nobody understands him and I have to translate lol... Belfast accents are lush... although when we were shopping over there last time our friends called us and asked us to pick something up for them... we were doubled up laughing as we didn't have a clue what they were asking for and ended up having them text us....
Hello Guys............ We can remember the first time John and I met Davy, Davy said something funny and John laughed but had no idea what he said and then he thought that Davy said "You don't know what the F*** I said, do you?" Then John said "You're F***ing right", been buddy since. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: We're still trying to get there for the 10th because lord knows we don't want to miss the booze cruise, but however there are kids we have to get settled with someone staying over and having to lug them to Band, Soccer, & Cross Country Practices. So we're hoping to add our names to that list as well. Donna & John AKA The Colonel AKA Uncle Louie
