I don't believe he was using the horribly bad English some people use by
saying "try and tell you" when they mean "try to tell you", but rather he
actually meant "and" as if he was doing two things, first he would try it,
and then (after having done so) he would tell you about it. Give him a
chance to try it first. Then he'll put you out of your misery. :)
