Tony said it sounded like I said "you know" quite a lot during the interview, which is interesting, because I don't use it much in English, you know. Wonder if I actually did, or if it just sounded like that to him? (he's just starting with learning Irish, you know). Now I'll have to listen, you know, just to see if he's right!

I think Redwolf posted her update in a different thread. The links are in the thread below.

viewtopic.php?f=28&t=2824&start=10

A couple of "y'knows" aside, I think she did an excellent job. :good:

Yeah...I couldn't find this one for some reason.

(I'd say more like a couple of thousand "y'knows"! I must have been really nervous...I don't say "y'know" like that in English!)

Can't wait to give it a listen. I'm sure you were brilliant :clap:

I still get nervous when someone who doesn't even speak the language asks me to say "hello" in Irish. I can't even imagine giving an entire interview to an Irish speaking audience. Fair play to ya Redwolf :clap:
