Where would be a good place to go learn some Irish ??
basics would be fine... although understanding Telefís na Gaeilge Ceathair would be a bonus, hahaha |

hmmm not so much the TG4 stuff but seriously I wouldn'y actually mind learning it. be hady as well for sitting on the 39 bus when I get fed up listening to all the other ignorant fuckers speaking their own language... I could then pick up my phone and shout down it "As Gaelgie" |

to me irish is all about a willingness to use what you got and not to get all caught up in tenses, declentions and gender.
go raibh maith agat harry, you have plenty of focail still knockin about in that ceann of yours |
