Hey Margo and listers! This has gotten out of hand! I'm not offended at all about anything that has been tossed my way, so no one else should get excited over it. I used the Bush comment to indicate that we cannot all always be in agreement on everything! It wasn't meant to incense nor offer real political commentary. If it incensed some, please accept my sincere apology! I would hope you would remain a part of this list Margo, you have been a member for some time and your wisdom has always been appreciated. I myself have every intent of remaining on, even if I just lurk in the background. For those who want to discuss Ulster Scots in all it's manifestations, there is an excellent list at Rootsweb, called Ullans! For those who would like to listen to the dialect, please tune in to BBC Northern Ireland and have a listen. It is truly music to the ears! I can hear me Granny now saying she was gonnae give us wains a skelping.
