Welcome! I hope you pop in at the gaelic conversation area. Where are you from in the islands? (I have the silly dream of retiring to Scotland, and have about settled on wintering in Tobermory and summering on Barra. . .)

May all your hardships fade away til night becomes morn, may love remain to guide your way... til the day we are reborn.

'S toil leam Gàidhlig agus tha mi ag iaraidh gu bheil a' dòl dò na h-Eileanan Siar - tha mi ag iaraidh gu bheil ag obair is a' fuirich an-sin!!! Tha e glè mhath gu bheil thu fileantach Gàidhlig! A bheil e deacair gu bheil a' lorg an obair ann na h-Eileanan Siar?

Sorry for my terrible Gàidhlig, but I hope you understand what I am trying to say...

' S ann as na Hearadh a tha mi bho thùs - I'm originally from Harris, ach tha mi a-nis a' fuireach agus ag obair ann an Inbhirnis airson Bòrd na Gàidhlig - but i'm now living and working in Inverness for Bòrd na Gàidhlig - the Gaelic development agency. Chan eil cail ann as fhearr leam na bhi a bleadraigeadh! sa Ghàidhlig fad an latha! - there's nothing i like more than blethering in Gaelic all day and most of the evening! Chan eil uidh sam bith agam ann an ceòl Pop! b'fhearr leam fada a bhith ag eisteachd ri ceòl tràdiseanta - Runrig, na balaich Bhatersaigh, Cliar, Calum Alex MacaMhaoilain! - I have no interest at all in pop music and much rather my traditional music - runrig, Vatersay Boys, Cliar and Calum Alex MacMillan! walkman.gif note.gif

tha miann mhòr agam a bhith air ais anns na h-Eileanan an drast'! - i'm desperate to get back to the Islands just now!

sin mise ma tha! - thats me then! rolleyes.gif

Hallo a charaid! Hello my friend! Fàilte gu Celtic Radio! Welcome to Celtic Radio!

In my humble opinion, you have found one of the best websites ever. The people here are some of the nicest to be found anywhere on the net, and the music is simply out of this world.

So kick off your shoes, grab a mug of your favorite hot (or cold) beverage, turn up the music and have fun! I look forward to getting to know you better through your posts.

If you have any questions or problems, please feel free to ask anyone with the word "Guide" beneath their avatar. That's why we're here!

I am the moderator for the Celtic Languages forum here, and we would LOVE to have you visit in our little corner of this fine message board! I am also a learner, but I have not gotten far at all in my studies. I would consider myself perhaps an advanced beginner, or perhaps low-level intermediate.

Anyway, here is a link for you to the Celtic Languages forum:

http://www.celticradio.net/php/forums/inde...hp?showforum=53

Our Scottish Galeic and Welsh boards are thriving. We having a little trouble getting our Irish boards hopping, but I hope soon we'll get some people here interested in learning that language as well. Come by and visit with us!

Again, it is so nice to have you with us. We are like one big family here, and we just love welcoming new members to the fold! I hope that you will enjoy your stay with us, and that you will come back and visit with us often. I feel quite certain that you will grow to love the place as much as I have.

Welcome to the family, my friend!
And welcome home! smile.gif

Thank you all! - again! very very friendly board! some others that i'm a member of should take note of this friendliness

Aye it is possible to work as a teacher in the Western Isles without Gaelic! there is very little Gaelic spoken there and even less taught. so if you go to www.cne-siar.gov.uk - the western isles council you can check the vacancies there! and oh, Harris is much better than lewis! there is a lot of rivalry between the two islands and there is the same in the Uists! North and South! and Barra and Eriskay! wink.gif

Listen, let me tell you something... when you have a fascination, an interest that comes from that deep in the heart, you hold onto it & enjoy it without consideration for what anyone thinks or says or does!! I've had a similiar love for England since I was about 12 years old. It took more than 25 years to finally visit the land itself and it was even better than I had imagined! Just mentioning it makes a smile come even now, and I thank God for allowing me to visit under the most ideal circumstances possible - and for the record, that was His planning not my own.

Keep your dreams!
