Hallo, ciamer a tha sibh an-diugh?

just wondering if there are any gaelic speaking orgers out there, or if anyone knows any gaelic speaking people around Wick.

I know that Caithness is not traditionally a Gaelic area, but as someone who knows a wee bit of the language I'm keen to start a wee group.

If anyone is interested, mail me at andrew.clark**AT**salvationarmy.org.uk

Mar sin leibh an-drasta.

I tried to enroll for the classes at Thurso night class but they were full. Another course is planned after crimbo. I can read some basic Gaelic but pronounciation is my biggest stumbling block. I can read quite a bit of the Scotsman gaelic page though.

When I was in Bristol we had a sorta 'gaelic support group' that just got together to do a bit of conversation practice. We followed on of the distance learning courses from Sabhail Mor Ostaig, Skye.
