Heh, was getting my lunch at the local centra near my workplace in East Point Business Park. I have noticed that the oriental girls who were serving me actually have a very heavy Dublin accent. Especially when they say the word "butter". :)
I have to say I was taken back a bit on the accent, I was expecting a softer English accent and more neutral type of English as well. But yeah, that was funny. My BF said there use to be a Chinese girl who works with the cleaning crew, and in the evenings when they clean up the place, my BF would hear her speak little English, but as the months progressed, her Dublin accent was getting stringer, on the other hand her English was getting better. I can just imagine, when I visit China some day, all I hear is the Dublin accent, like that crackers ad that was on some time ago. :D
Well, all people would tell me (since I was in college anyway) that I have an American accent! Must be all the Friends I was watching. ;)

Thanks, Mick! Yup, people can now post comments (or send me articles to post up) now.

Hi, mick here, there have been some technical problems with kaykays.com's publishing system, Movable Type. Hopefully these have been resolved now.

As part of the solution Kaykays is in the process of moving over to a new installation of Movable Type so only the IBC and message boards are currently working. I'll get the other blogs (personal, coffee monkeys and travel) working again as soon as I can.

Great to see BWG going to Tai Mo Shan. My boyfriend and I did not go to Kadoorie, but we saw it afar from Tai Po Kau Country Park. Same misty view though. Pity about the pollution.
