Month: January 2010

I have been a resident of Sydney’s world famous Bondi Beach for nearly 7 years, never had any problems with paddies or being a paddy which is why I was surprised to find a dodgy write up in an Irish paper about all the comings and going of my country men (and women).

It has been my experience that every one loves the Irish and our accent, even if they find it impenetrable, I always have to keep a look for the glazed look and I know I’ve lost some one, that is when it is time to speak a little slower.
