Hey guys,
Glad you set up the forum TBS, might be nice to use this as a base for a while.
I have an old site that isn't being used (2 year lease) if you ever get stuck, could use phpBB if you wanted.
I'm a food microbiologist by training, and have moved into zoonotic BioInformatics since then. I'm work for an Irish governmental organisation but am based in South Africa (where I lived as a child after being born in Ireland).
Anything else, ask away.
Anyways thanks for the site!
MA

Hi MA! I recognise you as a 'friend' from the 'other' place. Good to see you here...

A really really messed up one.
Think Colin Farrell while putting heavy emphasis on consonants and shortening vowels.
And lots of feck and ja thrown in.

I'm assuming "feck" is related to our word but spelled with a "u"? I'm rather intrigued myself. I've heard a lot of cussin' in this part of the world but the etymology of 'feck' would be something quite new to me. |

Feck is sometimes there to emulate culchies (anywhere outside of Dublin) and is a catchphrase for some comedies like Father Ted. The SAffies don't get it at all, which makes it even more useful. |
