Re: Sarnafil & your opinions


Hey Jim, if you do go to Scotland and find a roofing crew, they wont speak good english and you wont be able to understand what there saying any way lol!(only kidding BPC) I can get one word in four when its a thick scottish accent! its worse when you go to Newcastle(north of England) id say you understand one word in six!
Work has picked up abit here(Manchester area) and spring has finally turned up!
Cheers
Dave

I always find its the West of Scotland dialect that throws people, some Glaswegians are very hard to "unnerstaun" understand

Re: Sarnafil & your opinions


UK is a funny place for regional accents. we have it here in the states as well. you can tell a Bostonian from a Canadian,Rhode Islander or New Yorker, not to mention people from the southern states. even Maine has its own type accent. A lot of the younger kids though are not picking it up it seems.
