Dear Peg,

Your pressie parcel should be nearing its destination by now. I hope to augment this with one or two other things as I mentioned before which you should get in the New Year.

Some more clues? You are doing well so far!

You are right about an Irish connection although my Irish is not at all good! Although I could still wish you...

Barróga agus póga

Oh bother...I've given my gender away now!

What do I know about Peg, well for a start....

Tá guth binn, ceolmhar aicí

from the evidence that I have heard!

And me? Well it is purported that I am some sort of musician and sometimes play Irish and Scottish (and Breton...and that gives me another idea...!) traditional music (it being in the genes so to speak) but also other genres (in fact that's what I do much more of these days). My instruments include several different sorts of six string things, different sorts of eight string things, three and four string things and many types of hittable things! I have also experimented less successfully with squeezable things and blowable things...(flutes and whistles for those of you with dirty minds!). In fact, it could be said that I suffer from GAS (although I am not Catspaw...).

What other clues can I offer?

I do not drink (unusual for a Mudcatter...!)

Nuair a bhíos an braon istigh bíonn an chiall amuigh.

I have a worthwhile and interesting job...

Ní thuirsítear fear na héadála.

And I do not aspire to wealth or material things...

Is buaine port ná glór na n-éan,
Is buaine focal ná toice an tsaoil.

All very best wishes to you!
