I don't do any of that apart from maybe saying I'm grand or I'm fine to people I don't know.

It’s not a serious study Jessica :laugh:

Oh I know that, I think it might be a generational thing is all, like I've heard people do all of it but not really my peers, my 8-10 years older siblings would though.

I do apart from the time keeping, I like to be on time :smug:

This made me smile :hugesmile:

I tried to do one for Scottish but most of the words were censored :fist:

Yep I do all of those :laugh:

Jess do you not use "I will yeah"?

Niamh do you say Gwan Gwan Gwan? :joker:

Is anybody else reading them in the most old man, uber-Irish accent?

I have no idea why I'm doing it, but I can't help it!

That’s sexist and ageist :fist:::hehe:

My wife's grandad was an uber-Irish little old man and I can only hear him saying them, so yes :joker:
