The general chat at work amongst the English/Irish tends to be considered a bit coarse by the Scots/foreigners, they say. Bad language still a bit frowned on amongst the Ulster-Scots perhaps?

You're complaining about why [SIZE="4"]Ken Loach didn't take the bad language out of his film and you're calling me a stupid @#%&!?

Had you seen a Ken Loach film before?

If not, I highly recommend The Wind that shakes the Barley, you'll £#%&!ing love it petal.



Proper British people wouldn't bat an eyelid at bad language...

Did you even read that I said it didn't bother me. No of course not. And watched first 5 minutes of the Barley film - turned off as it was crap.

best bits by far was the archive clips of eric.

In some quarters maybe Celts (if you cursed in front of my ma you risked decapitation) but not uniformly across the board.
