Càit a bheil thu a' fuireach? Where do you live?

If it's ok to add some further points to your lessons Celticrose. Can i say that 'sibh' the formal version of 'you' is not only used in formal situations, but when talking to more than one person. So although 'Thu' is indeed informal & used when talking to a friend or a child, if you were talking to a group of children/friends 'sibh' would be used.
eg:-
Càit' a bheil thu a' fuireach? (talking to a child/friend)
Càit' a bheil sibh a' fuireach? (talking to ones parents, elder, stranger, official etc)
Càit' a bheil sibh a' fuireach? (Talking to children/friends)
