At 6.00 myself ,Liam and Leo (proxy for Carmel),showed and prayed.We now bring candles.
Unlike the panellists on T.V.3,the supposed third Irish Channel ,who this morning sneered and jeered at the Irish Language (it being seachtain na gaeilge) and whose witty reposts included such hilarious gems as "Sean O Sausage "and similar ,we said a decade of the Rosary as Gaelige.No doubt these " 3"witty linguists much prefer the culture and language of the British soaps( the staple diet of the station ),which they rebroadcast, to their own heritage.
In deference to Leo ,who is local Chairman of Conradh na Gaeilge,we decided by unanimous vote to henceforth say a decade as Gaeilge as well as the usual prayers.
And lest any readers think that we are Holy Joe's and Josephine's ,I have no hesitation of telling those "3" presenters to "Pog mo Thoin" and then soap out their mouths of the "Sean O Sausages"they gleefully quote with such gay abandon.
