M-m-m-marvelous! Simply marvelous, Uilleand. Here, let me help you down. There. That's it. Careful! We almost knocked over the candle. What a lovely song it was! I couldn't understand a word of it, but it warmed me clear down to my toes. I wonder if you could spare a few minutes out on the porch swing to translate the German to me...Hey! Stand back you guys! I'm trying to talk to this fine lady here and don't need any help from the likes of you! What? Oh, sorry, I misunderstood your intentions. I didn't know I was between you and that dish of Mick's seafood delight. Could you save me a bit of it? We'll be back after a while. Of course its hard to figure how long the translation might take.

So, Uilleand, speaking of translation, Mick tells me that your name (without the "d") would mean "elbow" in the Emerald Isle. Maybe you could tell me a little about that on our way out to the porch.
