Turas Siar 370 - Mary John Tom Bhreatnach as Glais ag labhairt le Máirtín Mac Donnchadha, RnaG: An Béarla sa nGaeltacht, turasóirí agus comharthaí bóthair.

Rud éigin mar sin níl fhios agam céard é féin, sin é an cheist a bhí agamsa anois.

That is an interesting point of information now, and that matches with what Éanna Ó Cionnaith said, although he was not on the same argument, when the ballot boxes come in, it's An Geata Mór Thuaidh and An Geata Mór Theas written on them--they are not called Binghamstown.

Agus tá

And so it is.

Isteach

In.

Mo sheasamh.
