I have to 2nd the T áin, especially residing in Ulster myself. Anything from the Ulster Cycle, especially with C ú Chulainn. Also Samhain themed ones like the Destruction of Da Derga's Hostel. Any appearence with an Mh ór R íoghain hits me on a personal level as well.

Dia duit a Ironbed, That's great you're learning with Rosetta Stoned. If you're wanting more practice with fluent speakers, heading down to An Chultúrlann would be a good idea. Not only is there great food at Caifé Bhéal Feirste, but you can order there, and the book shop as Gaeilge. There's also plenty of worshops&exhibitions

I think this is brilliant! Only being a resident here for not even two years, I'm always discovering new things. I love the connection with place names, and mythology as well. I remember driving down the M1, and seeing the sign for Ardee, Baile Átha Fhirdhia. It wasn't until I drove past a Ferdia petrol station, and later a Cooley Peninsula
