    Wondering if we have many boardsies from the north of ireland, as in the 6 counties?

    Normally i can associate some boardsies from most counties in Ireland.. but i dont seem to know any up in the North..

    Hee hee. When I lived in Belfast, I loved how you would see a guy who looked like a total biker dude hard-ass, and then he'd open his mouth and that gentle lilting accent would come out...although I feel like every time there is a thread on it, people from the south think the nordy accent is menacing.

    I'm from good Ulster, not bad Ulster.

    Though when I go anywhere back home I always have to go through the naughty (yet rediculously cheap) Ulster, even if I just go for a run.

    Am a Mexican living in Belfast for the past 4 years, originally from Limerick. Funny f@ckers up here like to refer to my home town as Stab City, until I remind them that when people refer to Belfast as a blast they are not always being complementary. Its alright up here, haven't seen any trouble even during the riots last month, its all contained within the crappier parts of the city and never spreads to the rest of the town, just like home. :cool:

    it all boils down to asking them to say 'situation' and sniggering at the effort.

    Nope, like the accent though even if its a bit funny sometimes... I laughed when I heard someone with the accent say Baby, because it sounded like Bebey, the way Fat Ba$tard from Austin Powers says it...



    I'm easily amused.

    I have to ask.
    Are you all still pissed off about the brown bull incident?

    At the end of the day, you got it back.
    We'll give you a few more if that's what it takes to bring total peace.
    I've spoken to the people of Leitrim, and they are more than willing to supply one fertile brown bull to every cattle farm in the 6 counties.

    Gis a hug.

    Yup...from a place that's got a big shappin centre in it...hai :D
    I'm sure some of the other nordies will figure that one out ;) that damn advert is the bane of my life when I mention where I'm from, even though it was years ago it was on the go it's still all I hear!

    As for the "situation" thing...I don't even say it in that way yet still last time I went to Dublin to go out on the lash for the weekend, these 2 dub fellas we met spent the whole bloody night asking for it to be said :rolleyes:

    Yes there is a few, you'll find them especially in the Politics forum with self proclaimed Unionist types like Jaap, Junder and KeithAFC who is here. Good to see them here though as it helps communication between traditions :)
