A Cafe Conversation

Posted on July 7, 2015 by Christopher Warman

We were assigned to eavesdrop on the citizens of Armagh, procuring conversations to inform our brain organs on the distinctive vocal landscape of Northern Irish society. For your pleasure, here is my entry:

“Hello?… Hello?… Hello?…… Hello? Think she’s hung up.”
“Eh?”
“Think she’s hung up. Hello?”
“Eh.”
“No helping it.”
