This video needs more love IMO so if nobody objects I'm just going to shoehorn it in for no reason other than the fact that it's Irish.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PhHW17OUbkY

Dayo u are biographically quizzically troublesome imo. I was only a scrapper insofar as defending.myself from a scrapper older brother, and the odd time the aul lady tbf. I never scrapped anyone else if they looked twice at me the brother'd oftentimes put them through a window and word gets around.

I did the same list as plax. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/50272574/recording1704.mp3
plax I picked as western by the consonants and the short As in words.
Drogheda accent has to be best in the whole country, no contest.

xpost most of the americans i have known in my life, including my parents, are not the type of people who even complain about their kids to strangers. the cult of childhood is very strong among upper middle class people in central jersey at least, and kids are like status symbols here... everyone thinks their kid is amazing. so this irish family was pretty different than that, even though they seemed like great parents who would do things with their kids etc.

most villages now do drama clubs because we have lots of empty halls now and sure you have to give the hoors a legitimate day job to keep the country wives off the scent
