Take a summer holiday on the West Coast of Ireland and sign into one
of their Oifeagas Gael (spelling) courses or similar. Thats the way to
do it...and ye learn lots of other stuff like trad music, Guinness

I would like very much to improve the standard of my Irish, which is,
admittedly barely more than pedestrian.
