    Katie doesn't know the bad line trick or the caller would have been gone. She obviously didn't read Joe's manual.

    That doesn't exist.

    Fair play to him.
    A Masters, even in something like Social Stuff is a start.

    A traveller with a nordie accent sounds odd?

    There's a great teacher in Galway who was interviewed, I think on Nationwide, a really nice guy, and greatly respected by his class.

    Over the limit, but not drunk. Grand so.

    Not used to having an intelligent person present Liveline asking intelligent questions without rude interruption. Very odd.

    Yeah, strange variation in accents amongst travellers. I wonder if some maintain the affiliation (cant think of a better word) even generations after they've settled down.

    A few near us down home are 2nd generation, but would never talk about it or refer to it.

    Watch n pen sets?

    Do they still live in the 1980s?

    It's a feature on happy American tourists that have just got off flights from Dallas.
