Agus bheith ina sliogán déarfá go raibh sé ar an ngar dom mar a bhí siad nuair a cuireadh isteach roimh a cuireadh isteach iad 'Sea agus thógfaí ansin iad agus bhéarfaí isteach i scioból iad scioból glan nó an t-urlár glan agus chaithfí ar an urlár ansin iad ina gcarnán mar bheifeá ag dul ag meascadh.

Mixing up a concrete site.

Agus bean fear a bhí a raibh an buicéad aige ag caitheamh an uisce air.

And the wife of the man who had the bucket was throwing the water on him.
