Little newborn baby girl that Mummy named Adele Emma caused hilarity among her Scottish relatives.........we're inclined to speak kind of rapidly.........basically they thought her mother named her, "A dilemma"

Heres a welsh one. When I was born my welsh mum announced to my irish aunties that she wanted to call me Sian. To which they all look puzzled and said " i thought the baby was a girl, what do you want to call her Sean for?"

I'm starting to understand the local accent more, but still need a translator at times, so got those straight away.

Whats the one about the Glaswegian in a cake shop?

 

[John Fenna]

Noooooo - some of us in Wales understand!
Blessed be the Billy who taught us to understand Glasgie Speak!
