Been reading with interest your comments on dialect, the Scots have some dozies too, especially up in the Glasgow area. Yup, the Delta version is running riot down here too, especially with Trumps puppet DeSantis in charge.

Hi MD.. DeSantis is an asshole, and that's putting it kindly! Folk down here are saying he's a mini Trump, and that I agree with. Nasty man...!

Hi MD, I had a listen to your language and could hardly understand what they said!! Sounded a bit like Yorkshire dialect ... Some people have trouble understand some of the Scottish dialects, so .... :-)I had a keek at the castle ... Beautiful, truly magnificent.. You are so lu...

Hi MD. I love the regional patois. We have that here in the USA. Hubby hails from the midwest (Ohio) and I'm from the East Coast (Maryland) and we have slight accents from those areas. We've lived in Arizona nearly 14 years, so I think we've lost most of those accents. ...

Hi Sue .... your "Ta Ra" took me back to the Black Country!!!!! I've had to learn a new language in Devon. The closest to "Ta Ra" is "See you dreckly," but it's said as one word with the emphasis on "dreck." I've just had a look at Peoria on Google maps and Googled for inform...

Hi MD. That youtube video of Phoenix is so old! Downtown Phoenix is unrecognizable since then, with high rises and upscale condos, huge stadium and courthouses, etc. We live in a northwestern suburb called Peoria. There is a lot of open desert although our popularity and po...

Hi Phoenix ... I read your post and then Googled Gamma Knife Radiation and was amazed to find this: Gamma Knife radiosurgery is nearly 90 percent successful in killing or shrinking brain tumors or stopping their growth. And it doesn't hurt or require anesthesia. Treatment takes...

Hi Sue .... I looked at Phoenix Metro area on Google maps and then on Youtube. It looks lovely. This is an old video and I suspect it's changed a lot since then but I enjoy seeing how the area developed. As for Last Tango In Halifax ... a wonderful series set in a lovely area...

Hi Phoenix ..... you really need air con where you are. Already I don't need it .... our temperature has dropped and we are expecting a storm ...we had heavy rain yesterday. I see that DeSantis has actually thought of the long term effects of people not getting vaccinated ... hi...

Hi Phoenix ..... The Black Country is only a relatively small area. We have our own language. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JmP6DyY8pfM I have so many lovely memories ... my travel agent sent me their latest coach holiday brochure. I turn the pages and I've been to most of...

Hi MD and Phoenix (and stargzer, if you're browsing). I've been bingeing on Last Tango in Halifax and really missing our yearly trip abroad. I want to put the kettle on and savor PG Tips (it is in our pantry). Hoping all is well with everyone here. We've had a very rainy w...

Hi MD, the poor soul was released from hospital yesterday, but has to go back for something called Gamma knife radiation on the 26th. Sarah and the kids are driving up to her to help out over the weekend.. ... long six hour drive as they live way up in the boonies. They'll have t...

Hi MD, I had to look up "Bosson Heads" and "the Black Country" to see what you were talking about.. Yup, I remember the heads, I used to know somone who collected them many moons ago, but it escapes me who it was.. old brain cells not being what they were! Did not know that part ...
