麻豆约拍

Ailean: 鈥橲 e baile trang, trang a bh鈥� ann an Tobar Mhoire nuair a bha mise 貌g, agus bha an 'distillery' anabarrach trang aig an 脿m a bha sin, agus bha m貌ran a鈥� faodainn an cosnadh anns an 'distillery'.
Agus bha b脿taichean-iasgaich a鈥� tighinn a-staigh, iasgairean a鈥� tighinn a-staigh le giomaich agus bradan agus sgadan, agus a h-uile se貌rsa iasg a b鈥� urrainn duine ainmeachadh.
Tha cuimhne agams鈥� air tr脿lair a鈥� tighinn a-staigh cuideachd le iasg, agus gheibheadh sibh trosg m貌r airson tastan aig an 脿m a bha sin. Agus 鈥檚 iomadh trosg a fhuair sinn ceart gu le貌r.
Agus bhiodh sinn fh猫in a鈥� dol a-mach ag iasgach feasgaran samhraidh. Tha sgeirean beag a-null nas fhaisge ri 脌ird nam Murchan, agus bhiodh sinn ag iasgach an sin. Agus bha e s貌nraichte math airson iasgach. Rionnach agus a h-uile se貌rsa iasg a ghabhadh bruidhinn air, bha sinn a鈥� faighinn an sin.
Agus, an oidhche as fhe脿rr a bh鈥� agam riamh, bha sinn ag obair shuas a鈥� saorsainneachd air taigh beag ceann shuas Loch Suaineart. Agus th脿inig an 'ghillie' aig an uachdaran far an robh sinn an oidhche seo agus thuirt e, "A bheil sibh a鈥� tighinn a dh鈥檌asgach? Am bu mhath leibh a鈥� tighinn a dh鈥檌asgach?"
鈥淥h, bu ghasta leinn a鈥� dol a dh鈥檌asgach.鈥�
Agus, dh鈥檉halbh feadhainn againn a dh鈥檌asgach. Agus, bha an uachdaran e fh猫in a-staigh sa bh脿ta cuideachd, is mhothaich mise gun robh an 'ghillie' aige a鈥� cur p矛os de phlaideachan mun cuairt air na r脿imh, agus blades nan r脿imh. Agus thuirt mi ris, 鈥淎 Dh貌mhnaill, chan fhaca mi duine a鈥� d猫anamh sin riamh. Carson a tha sin?鈥�
Bha airson 鈥檚 nach cluinneadh duine sam bith na r脿imh anns an uisge. Agus dh鈥檉halbh sinn, chaidh sinne suas, agus thog an uachdaran a-mach f矛deag, agus sh猫id e an fh矛deag.
Oh...ch矛 sibh, chunnaic sibh, bha iad a鈥� falbh cho luath 鈥檚 a ghabhadh i. Mhothaich esan b脿ta, chunnaic e neo chuala e b脿ta eile ag iomradh agus sh猫id e an fh矛deag airson 鈥檚 gun teicheadh iadsan is nach fhaiceadh iad esan ged a bha an t-iasg aige air a 鈥渓ettadh鈥� bha e airson oidhche a thoirt dhuinn agus 鈥檚 e duine uasal gasta a bh鈥� ann. Newton Rahoy, 鈥檚 e duine gasta, Commander Newton.

鈥淲oof鈥�, arsa Queen, is i na laighe air a cuid pocannan aig an doras c霉il. Bha i na leth cadal is cha do chuir an rud a dh'idir i m貌ran dragh oirre.
Bha e beagan 脿s d猫idh tr脿th-diathad. Bha mo mh脿thair a鈥� c脿radh stocainnean is Antaidh Chris a鈥� fighe. Antaidh Cairistiona le dealgan. Mo sheanmhair anns an r霉m a-staigh, is m鈥� athair c貌mhla rithe anns an t-s猫ithear mh貌r a鈥� leughadh p脿ipearan Dhisathairn'. Bhathar air ruighinn Dim脿irt.
Chuala sinn ceum air an staran, is chuala sinn guth Dh脿naidh Chamshron.
鈥淗ello鈥�, ars esan, 鈥減arcel for you鈥�, is th脿inig e a-steach is chuir e am parsail air a鈥� bh貌rd.
鈥橲 ann bho t矛r-m貌r Alba a bha D脿naidh Camshron is gun Gh脿idhlig aige. Bha e a鈥� fuireach ann an taigh a鈥� phuist ann am Bre脿cleit. Mura b鈥� e postair a bh'air a bhith ann, bhiodh e air fear-naidheachd math a dh猫anamh. Bha e math air naidheachdan a' sgaoileadh.
Chaidh mo mh脿thair chun an dreasair, is thug i sporan dubh 脿s, is chunnt i an airgead ann an l脿mh D脿naidh Camshron.
鈥淯ill, 鈥檚 e JD鈥�, arsa mo mh脿thair, 鈥渃ha robh d霉il agamsa gun tigeadh seo gu an t-seachdain 鈥檚 a鈥� tighinn. Tha Oxendales math air seacaidean beag, ach chan eil duine cho math air br貌gan ri JD鈥�.
Stiall i am p脿ipear bhon a鈥� pharsail, is thug i dh貌mhsa am bucas. Thug mi mullach dheth, agus ann a shin, bha d脿 Lorne ghleansach dhubh. Bha iad cho grinn ri d脿 ornament a chuireadh tu air a鈥� mhantelpiece.
Ach bha l脿n fhios agamsa carson a bha na Lornes. Bha mise a鈥� dol dhan sgoil.

Alasdair MacLe貌id: Bha. Th脿inig e nam chuimhne an uair ud nuair a bha E脿irdsidh a鈥� bruidhinn air an dotair. Th脿inig e a-muigh mu dheidhinn am bodach a bha san ospadal, agus co-dhi霉, bha e an d猫idh d霉sgadh agus bha d矛reach surgeon d矛reach a鈥� tighinn a-staigh air an doras. Agus rinn e air an leabaidh aige.
Agus, 鈥淯ill鈥�, ars esan, 鈥淐iamar a tha thu a鈥� faireachdadh?鈥�
鈥淥h, chan eil mi gu dona idir鈥�, ars esan.
鈥淥h鈥�, ars esan, 鈥渁 bheil thu鈥�, ars esan, 鈥渁irson an naidheachd mhath neo an droch naidheachd a chluinntinn an toiseach?"
鈥淥h鈥�, ars esan, 鈥渢hoir dhomh鈥�, ars esan, 鈥渁n droch naidheachd an toiseach鈥�.
Agus, 鈥淥h uill鈥� ars esan, 鈥溾�橲 e an droch naidheachd鈥�, ars esan, 鈥済um b'fheudar dhuinn an d脿 chas a thoirt dh矛ot fon a鈥� ghl霉in.鈥�
鈥淥h...鈥�, ars esan, 鈥渙h ma tha sin mar sin鈥�, ars esan, 鈥渇eumaidh mi a bhith leis鈥�, ars esan. 鈥淒猫 nise鈥�, ars esan, 鈥渁n naidheachd mhath a th鈥� agad dhomh鈥�, ars esan.
鈥淯ill鈥�, ars esan, 鈥渇ear anns an leabaidh ri do thaobh鈥�, ars esan, 鈥渢ha e an d猫idh offer uabhasach math a thoirt dhuinn air na slippers agad!鈥�
