Aidan Crossey Toome Eel Fisheries - Free Lough Neagh! (128* d) RE: Toome Eel Fisheries - Free Lough Neagh! 02 Nov 02


Ard Mhacha ...

If I had time I'd transcribe it for the benefit of them that spakes a language other than Montiagh!

Having said that I played the original tape to a mate of mine - a playwright that lives in London, but originally from Derryadd - and he couldn't make head nor tail out of it. I ended up translating!

Sometimes, though, the words aren't important. There are a rhythms and cadences in Albert's speaking which are starting to die out as the Lough shores become gentrified ...

Slán, a chara.

Aidan
