I know Gearoid is a culchie, but are there any other bogger or mucker forum members?

I was thinking we could plan a get together to celebrate.
 
I don't consider myself a culchie but anyone in dublin seems to consider anyone outside of dublin a culchie so therefore I must be a culchie!
 
I'm a culchie under An Capall's strict terms

Alas, six and a half years in Dublin has blunted that somewhat. I now feel that I have the same simple means as the normal Dubliner, making me one of them scumbags Gearoid referred to
 
No, I'm not!!! :lol: Not going to take the job anyway, much as living in Dublin would be good I'm sure. It was only a half serious offer though - although it's there for the taking if I want it I'm sure!

I always feel that when I open my mouth in Dublin I'm at a disadvantage.

Don't you only normally do that to tip some of the black stuff down it?
 
....and the vodka's a darn sight more expensive, Will!! :lol:

Although I was told tonight "ah but at Wethespoons you can get pissed for a quid..." which sounds value to me.......
 
Jaysus, they've not let Wetherspoon's in have they? You turn your back for five minutes...
 
Class Gearoid!!!! :lol: :lol:

Sorry Gareth, I was told that about the UK, not Ireland, on bemoaning the cost of vodka there....
 
Leaving aside the geographical qualification, what exactly does the word 'culchie' mean?

(Ever anxious to expand my vocab, you see.)
 
Any ideas about its origin? Did it evolve from Latin or did it come from your Erse?

Is it pronounced "cull-tchay"?
 
Its pronounced cull-chee.You can also use the word bogger,which is pretty much self explanatory.
I must be culchie so being from Kildare ie the bog to any Dubliners
