    Niall Tobin is a master of the various Irish regional accents, he recounts humorous foibles of Irish life from some years gone by, people from other countries may not get the humour

      We Aussies get it ,of course, as the Irish came here 230 years ago. The Aussie accent must have come about by a blending of Irish, Scottish, Welsh, and English accents.

      Copper wire was invented in Dunfermline when two rag-trade merchants fought over a farthing centuries ago. This is written on the cornice of a very old house near the Carnegie Library & Museum.

This kind of 'joke telling' has gone the way of the dodo bird I think.
