Gness (Aged 3)

[Buenchico]

Well, it is St Paddy's Day anyway ;-)

[gness]

I did, BM. The boy got a second name starting with a consonant so I could really express it. The girl got two middle names because girl's are harder to scare. :-)

[gness]

And that's a two glass apostrophe before you know who picks me up.

[Buenchico]

My mother always called me by my middle name (John). Does that mean that I was always in trouble then?

;-)

[gness]

Don't know, Chris...but I would think so... ;-)

[Buenchico]

You're probably right, Gness ;-)

[gness]

I always am, Chris...just ask Dave...x

[Buenchico]

It used to be that being addressed as David (rather than Dave) meant I was in big trouble - but the Irish don't really do 'Dave', so as I've settled into life here, more people have come to know me as David.

Now if I start getting called Dáithí then I'll know I've gone entirely local ...

[Buenchico]

>>> then I'll know I've gone entirely local

I assume that's a typo! Surely it should read " . . . entirely loco", shouldn't it?

;-)

[gness]

Dave only gets Dave here in Ireland at the Whiskey tasting evenings with the two other Davids. So we have to have David, Dáithí, and Dave or things get confusing but he's slowly becoming Dáithí which is lovely... :-)

[gness]

Sure didn't he do that two weeks after meeting me, Chris.....didn't need to wait til moving here.... :-)
