There is more useful info on the city on the tel aviv thread of virtualtourist.com. Very friendly the locals!! Gargle is cheap!!!!!

No provlem Saint Tom , im glad I helped.
Now im really ( !!! ) not trying to insult anybody here , but I have to ask this:
Do you have a "heavy" accent , like the same as the english that people from Scotland speak ? ( do know how to spell accent , hope you understand )
Sorry for the rude question, I was just wondering
We can't even understand each other, hence the "troubles."Originally Posted by the_bonk
We're great at sign language though.
We point at a beer tap, make a drinking from a glass gesture and hold up the number of fingers which indicates the quantity we require.
We do more singing than talking, in fact, some people believe they're one and the same thing in Cork.![]()
Have Boot Disk, will travel

Our accent is different from Scotland. When i was in collage, It took me two week to understand what donegal people and South Kerry people (opposite ends of the country) are saying. I had one guy from south kerry who spoke with a grunt voice and speak slower(or relaxed) than most and donegal was garble and talk fasterOriginally Posted by the_bonk
. When I first meet them I though i would have a better chance of understand dog language
. I was unlucky, that i had to share a house with these two lads who were had the extremes of accents from their own counties. It was like learning two new languages in a foreign country. There might as well be indian,russian and german in the household. After the first month i became the translator for them.
We had no problems communicating in the Pub.
But as peader says, sign language work best. It a simple but effective method, especially when your'e at the back of the pub and need a few pints. Just nod at the barstaff for attention, and sign your order. By the time you get to the bar. Order is ready.![]()
