And I love Brit humor...they just get it, you know? <BR/><BR/>I actually used some Brit slang just a while ago...'cause today I've felt completely knackered.

Mmmmmm.<BR/><BR/>And Mister Man listens to Thomas CDs all the time and my parents let him WATCH Thomas, so he does the "'allo Guv'na" alll the time.

It can partially be blamed on my friend Kerry who is from England. We have our wellies. Our dodgy knees. And bloody relatives. On the other hand, a lot of the time I spent talking to her, I end up yelling "speak English!" :-)Keys to the Magic Travelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15634829064005032831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3290395341073889101.post-30445398156670879092008-09-02T13:03:00.000-04:002008-09-02T13:03:00.000-04:00I'm with Shelley...I would love to have an Irish a...I'm with Shelley...I would love to have an Irish accent...Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04528100540382167568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3290395341073889101.post-17966793346286154532008-09-02T12:59:00.000-04:002008-09-02T12:59:00.000-04:00I would love to have a Gaelic accent.
