Re: Dark Skies

 @Wanderer 

Someone told me the Irish used complex spelling rules to befuddle the English ... not sure what you think about that.

 

I became aware about 20 years ago that both my sides were not particularly fond of the english but that it was the main language I spoke ... she is a witchy w hore of a language ... a mixed up cauldron.

Re: Dark Skies

Ha ha @Wanderer 

 

I came to my Irish side a bit late for learning the language but regularly hang out with a literary, history and theatre Irish based group. They often have new Irish migrants over etc. Somehow I fit there better than with the Irish Australian trad musos.  I did not know any of their songs. and they had negative feelings about me being a classical musician.  I was pretty hurt actually, but best to hang with those where it worx.

 

I like the net for playing around with language and getting rid of the bloomin constipated Brit attitude to spelling and correct pronunciation.

Re: Dark Skies

Thanks for this post @Wanderer 

Heart(non romcom heart)

I have had a hard time in my writers group because the material is so ... touchy ... suicide, schizophrenia and mental illness ...social stigma and all that.  SO I found this forum and tried to adapt to its peculiarities ...

 

at uni .. can do the essay thing ... I was a well trained little speller etcetera etceteraaahhh!  I am giving it a last try and will host them in June. I get so tired of having to "move on" ron.

 

I just posted over on another thread while you posted this.

Tanks again.
