Tá an CD, Ram, tá sé ag dul chun cinn níos fearr 'chuile lá. Tá tháinig trí nó ceathair de orduithe isteach inniu féin faoi agus tá dúil againn amach anseo go gcuirfidh muid níos mó stuif air má tá sé le fáil againn istigh sa gceantar seo. Tá muid faoi láthair imithe go dtí an taobh eile den den pharóiste, an chiortáin agus ag cruinniú na logainmneacha ar an taobh sin agus bhí mé thall an oíche eile anois ag Pat Johnny Mac Andrew, an scipéirí a thugann siad air agus tá sé ochtó trí bliain d'aois agus tá eolas iontach ag an bhfear sin agus an beag a bhfuil muid roimhe anois. Beidh an beidh an t-eolas sin imithe chomh maith ach ag teacht ar ais arís ag an taobh seo tíre agus an an an t-eolas atá le cur ar an CD Ram go fóill. Tá tá b'fhéidir le cúnamh Dé má tá am againn agus rud beag ar ais go dtiocfadh linn rud beag eile a fháil bheadh muid in ann rud tuilleadh a chur leis agus b'fhéidir le deireadh na gcaisleán arís.

The CD, Ram, it is progressing better every day. Three or four orders have come in today alone for it and we hope in the future that we will be able to put more stuff on it if we can get it here in this area. At present, we have gone to the other side of the parish, the ciortán, and are gathering the placenames on that side and I was over the other night at Pat Johnny Mac Andrew’s, the skipper as they call him, and he is eighty-three years old and that man has wonderful knowledge and there is little that we have before him now. That knowledge will be gone as well, but coming back again to this side of the country and the information that is yet to be put on the CD Ram. Maybe, with God’s help, if we have time and a little bit left so that we could get a little more, we would be able to add something more and maybe by the end of the castles again...
