Turas Siar 375 - Pádraic Ó Gionnáin as Cill Ghallagáin, ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam dílis, ag cur síos ar chruinniú mór feilméaraí caorach i gCaisleán an Bharraigh. Máirtín Mac Donnchadha, RnaG, a léirigh an clár.

Cibé ní raibh sé tarraingthe an uair sin ach tháinig sé.

Maybe it hadn't been drawn then but it came..

Agus bhí scata ag fanacht leis. Bhí sé ina luí ar feadh laethe taobh thiar de bhaile mhóir agus 'chuile áit.

And there was a crowd waiting for him. He had been lying for days behind a big town and everywhere.

Fair play do Éamon Ó Cuív, mar déarfá.

Fair play to Éamon Ó Cuív, as you’d say..

An méid a diarr mise ar Éamon Ó Cuív thug sé go maith an

What I asked Éamon Ó Cuív, he answered it well.

An old neighbour involved with that thing, a group who are with the Department...

Sea

Yes.

A hundred thousand pounds and I don't care about it myself for use for the place and the men for him it was a bit coming..

What I ever asked Éamon Ó Cuív..

Agus ní uaim féin ar chor ar bith é ach anyway bhí cnap thart anois a Mháirtín agus iad ar ndóigh ag cur ceisteanna air agus ar 'chuile shórt eile agus ní raibh fear ar bith fad up a bhí ann.

Thug sé uait.

He took it from you..

Ach bhí mo dhá bhaile liom féin i mo phóca, a Mháirtín, i gcónaí.

But I always had my two homes with me in my pocket, Máirtín.

dTuigeann tú.

You understand..

Ha

Ha.
