Cockney rhyming slang is used also in 'Strine'....although we are more likely to say 'the old cheese' than 'trouble and strife'...

I am the seventh son of the seventh son (I can look in the sky and predict the rain, I can tell if my woman is with another man, etc. etc.) At any rate my father came over from Ireland and he tells me that there are more Gumbleton's in Ireland then Smiths in Detroit. Somehow I really doubt the validity of that statement but it did make my dad happy to say it as often as he could. I've never been to Ireland but my oldest brother travels quite often and he was there and told me that there is a "Pub" over there by the name of "Gumbleton's Tavern" or Gumbleton's Pub. If any of you foreign born (I use the term from my point of view ) from that area (Ireland) could verify that fact...the pub I mean.

Thanks a lot BoXXi, I knew about that site but its been a long time since I've visited it. The Bishop refered too in one of the links is my first cousin. He is my father's brother's son. At the time of his ordination he was the youngest bishop in the world. (36). Also my oldest brother is an ex-priest (Jesuett) who married an ex-nun. Lots of religious folks in my family tree, two aunts who were Mother Superiors in the Detroit area. I am the black sheep of the family as I don't follow any particular religious group. I guess I overdosed on cathologism (still havn't added my browser spell checker that IPlural was nice enough to point me towards.)
Thanks again, I thourally enjoy talking to people from all over the world via this newsgroup? message board? discussion group? whatever some of the nicest people browse here.
