    I knew a culchie and he was a very cool and laid-back guy. Is there something bad about them? :confused:

    My great aunt, who fell for a Galwegian(mad. clearly(well him to be fair)) moved to her loves city way back in the day. A few years back now she passed away in her late 90's. A bit sudden like, though in her sleep, with a stubbed out cigarillo at her bedside(OK feck off. Yes it was a Hamlet). At her funeral the Galwagian Priest gave her a great send off, but also threw in the "although she was a Dub, she fitted in well around here". At which point my great uncle Joe, her bro(at the time 90) who I had transported to said send off, suggested in a very loud voice "Dub? Ye effin culshies were lucky to have her to sort ye out for so long". The priest actually cracked up at this point and the crowd actually clapped. I have to say, even before that I always had an instinctive affection for Galwegians through experience*, but that sealed the deal. :)

    Thin end of the wedge Khyra24. That's how these canny bastards lull you into a false sense of security. Devious they are.


    *Grudgingly I would say same of Corkonians. :D

    Many worry about Artificial Intelligence. I worry far more about Organic Idiocy.

    Oh...maybe I should reconsider wanting to be a culchie then. Funny...he was from County Cork...he's the most devious of the devious? :eek: lol j/k.
