Gaelic. It's an impossibly difficult language, but very beautiful.

We had fun once figuring out why gaelic is so weird. Decided finally that since monks were usually the literates in early times, there once was a monk that fell in love with an Irish colleen. When she spurned him, he took his revenge by trying to make the written language so difficult that the Irish would be doomed to be illiterate forever after, lol.

I have an Irish friend who calls it "garlic", lol

Wondered if it was Gaelic. I've seen a few words in it in books I've read and would love to learn more of it one day.

:he The agent just came round again. The buyer's friend gave him a very good report, but.. they're coming down here on the 8th December and want to come look before deciding!! After all that? I feel like screaming. The agent is so mad at them... He went through all the trouble to draw up the sale agreement and everything and now this? He brought other people round just now to look and he said they are interested, so we'll see? Why can't things just go smoothly?

Fingers crossed.

Karma would be selling it out from underneath them before they get off their high horse to come see it. Haha! Here's to Karma! (drinking toast of morning coffee)

Hope so. I know better than to get my hopes up, but I was hoping this time, finally, it will come to something? I'm tired and I want to go home.
