what's the work situation up there?

[weldin mike 27]

Hey,
I think they feed the screech to the visitors and roll around laughing at the results.... Not silly enough to drink it them selves.

Hey,

Im terrible sorry, Im always getting those two mixed up for some reason, Its probably quite insulting. Like getting Australia and New zealand mixed up. Please accept my humble apology and know that I wish you well in all your welding adventures.

Athlete's tongue, Mick?

I've stuck my foot in my mouth a time or two.

You caught on, and it'll pass.

[weldin mike 27]

Hey,

Nah, just anticipated knowledge out weighing actual knowledge, I worst bit is I consider myself quite good at Geography.

Go figure...

Mick

[Otto Nobedder]

All right, I give... I can't figure it out from context.

What the hell is "Screech"???

[weldin mike 27]

Hey,

Screech is a local firewater (rum) finished in NEWFOUNDLAND and given to tourists in order for them to be "initiated" to the area, Funny as hell to the locals, I bet.

Sounds like I'll put it on my list of things to "don't".

don't feel too bad mick. i make that same blunder often myself. my other faux-pas is asking someone named costello (there's a million of them in my local. all related. all from newfinland.) which part of ireland he's from.

[weldin mike 27]

I asked a Scottish lady which part of Ireland she was from
......Suprised she didnt headbutt me.....
