I understand this site's birthday is around the corner. Any special celebrations planned?

I suggest that on 22/8/16 we all drink a small toast to Alisoncc/Admin and thank her for the supreme efforts she has put in. :-bd

SMALL
Sod that. Mine won't be small ..... and if it is a wee dram of Islay's finest it will be a good one!

You may want to review your choice of tipple on this occasion Mr B.
Bó Mór isn't a nice way to address a lady!

Got me there, Compo. Even Google is not knowing. Can you elaborate, and tell the ancient Bowmore Distillery as well while you are at it. How should I undress a lady?

I think you would need to try harder for a ban, Compo.

Bó Mór - Gaelic to English produces 'Sorry, no entries found'.

Come on, I'm intrigued.

No whisky for me on ops-normal's b'day but I shall salute the event with a large glass of ice cold milk.

Well done folks, this is still a fun place to come to and you make it so.

That site is an on-line dictionary, Boac. Try entering individual words. NB the noun precedes the adjective in Gàidhlig.

Is that Irish Gaelic or Scots? I am in West Kerry now, should I try it on some local lass?
