Tell us something.: A long time chatty Chiffer but have been absent for almost two decades. Returned in 2022 and still recognize some names! I also play anglo concertina now.

And let me tell ya', it's not easy!!
I'm really starting to feel my signature line!
As for the second sentence... No su' oraiste for you! ...Because I can't pronounce it yet.
This is where I am in the learning process: "An bhfuil an Ghaeilge deacair?" "Is ea!!!" (I wanted to end that with "Damn straight!" but I have no idea how to say that.) *wonders if it's in Chapter Three*
After all of this, you're going to charge me for lessons, aren't you?
Haha, not at all. I'm only on maybe the equivalent of chapter 4 or 5 or so...I'm just glad to have someone to talk to "as Gaeilge". We can take it to email if you're getting nasty looks from the penguins.
("Sea" is a slurred version of "Is ea", means the same thing.)
ANNOUNCEMENT: COSTUME CONTEST--TONIGHT, RIGHT AFTER THE PENGUIN JIG DANCING!!
Whoever dresses up like the best whistle or whistle player gets a free rhubarb pie!
