All I can say is your old man clearly must wish he was from Dublin.

Seriously though? Scottish people say this too? I never knew that. I suppose I havnt spent that long in Scotland.

How about "gammy", as in I have a "gammy leg".

I have only really heard that one in Dublin. There is a norwegian word, "gamye" or something which means broken. I would guess they have the same origin.
Aye... They use gammy in England as well though Though it's a bit old fashioned now I think. Deadly and rapid as well, for that matter!
I bet no one uses Guntered. Meaning more or less the same as bodged.

Its very cool I thought. Maybe I should have posted it up in its own thread.
