The glottal stop used to be considered a feature of the hard core Dublin
accent where Dubs were noted for using a glottal stop in place of a final T.
For example a true Dub would be expected to render "Did you get it?" as
"Did ya geh ih?"
If I can figure out how to apply this feature - with any positive results
-to my pathetic attempts to play harmonica I shall let you guys know.
