Newfunese v. Cape Breton-ish
First, Cape Breton-ish Don't let the fact that he's talking about a vehicle named the Bonavista - which is in Newfie - fool you.  This it a Cape Bretoner trying to be Newfie, but every good Newfie will know he's not a true Newf.
This is a true conversation between two Newfs.  See how they talk over each other?  Yeah, they really do that..and this is exactly how some of my relatives sound.  I understand (most) of it and it makes me homesick.

Oh, man. They sound like auctioneers! I kept waiting to hear "SOLD"!!
I have to say - never heard an accent quite like that!
Jeebus, I thought Donny, the piper from Albannach, was hard to understand.
I didn't get much of either conversation.
