@EasilyWowed what? can you clearify what youre saying, I dont understand.

[EasilyWowed]

I was being silly....sorry, I totally understood. I have Caper roots...so what 'I' referred to.

THIS 'sounds like' - what I know, as in ... being from Nova Scotia. I know it!!! All good. ;o)

i grew up in new waterford about 15 minutes outside of sydney on cape breton island and halifax sounds so normal when they speak .. been up in fredericton for the last 8 years and alot of the terms i use for things no one really understands like the term pogey for example means ei (employment insurance ) no one really understood what i ment cept some of the older crowd down here or when i'd ask my buddies how to work the clicker (remote ) for the tv they'd look at me like i had three heads
