Turas Siar 189 - Pádraic Ó Maolruaidh as Leitir Fhinnín, ceantar Thuar Mhic Éadaigh, ag caint le Máirtín Mac Donnchadha, RnaG.

Bhuel nach iontach agus níor chuala mé aon chaint ariamh air. Níor chuala mé aon chaint riamh air nó gur labhair Éamonn air an lá cheana ach níl cuimhne ar bith agat cén uair a stopadh dhá húsáid a Phádraic nó cén fáth meas tú cén fáth?

Well isn’t that remarkable and I never heard any talk of it ever. I never heard any talk of it until Éamonn spoke about it the other day but you have no memory at all of when it stopped being used, Pádraic, or why—do you think, why?

Go deas.
