Hiya my name is shiv I wanted to say hi! So HI! I'm slightly shy but I talk a lot and like towrite poems and sometimes unintentionally rhyme.  So hi!

 

The pleasure here is ours!  Hope your shyness never sours the multitude of hours you shall spend upon our bowers.  Not a rhymer who just cowers in a fertile field of flowers, but a fruhead's nonesense towers (and sometimes jian showers).

That is, welcome!

I wanted to say boo.. but I wont, way to rhyme your 'owers and such!

yaaaaaaaaaay siobhan!! *dance*

siobhan's one of my britishfr� converts, so be nice! and worship her britishness! yup. :D

Welcome, Siobhan! And hooray for Britishness! The concept of "Jian Showers" is grossing me out, however *g*

mmmmmmmjianshowers :D

siobhan's probly with you on that one. she's one of murray's people. :) ah well, all the more jian for me, hehehehe :D

Ew ew ew ew ew!

Hrm...am I the only one that sees this icon as looking like a poor dog flattened? :)

Um, and never mind, because when I refreshed the page there was a new icon in place. Ignore me. :)

Welcome! 

... and can I just point out that you have my boyfriend's favorite girl's name?

how do you pronounce it?

shi-VAHN, approximately. right? it's one of my favorite irish names. when neal and i have kids, i want to give them all irish and jewish names. ack. i'm talking about having kids. somebody shoot me.

1. ok, I was so wrong in my mental pronunciation.

2. "Danny" should cover both.

3. *bang*

 

yup. it's pronounced, as carey said, shi-VAHN, although in an english accent it's more like shi-VON. yeah. :D i think it has a little accenty thing over the 'a', too. i don't put it in ever, but justine sometimes does, i think. :)

She got it so right o the pronunciation but I had exams and could not join in.  Thank you for the warm and friendly welcome.  It was lovely and made my hungover post exam day.  It also has got a fadder or something like that over the a which looks like an accent but is a neat thing perculiar to Ireland.  I like having an Irish name but am calling my kids something Japanese or French.  But I am way to young to think of that now.  I recommend calling your child Siobhan but not if there are a lot of Irish Catholics about as there were 3 at my first school and about 10 at my second.
