Heres what im thinking:


Irish course is unpredictable, everyones knows that, but its not impossible.

For prós, cearrbhach has come up THREE years running since 05. And every year it has been asked in the mandatory section (part so it seems highly unlikely.
Clare hasn't come up since 05 and bean og only came up once aswell. Lig sinn has come up twice.

My bet is on clare/fiche bliain and bean og



for ordinary poems, defo not nil aon ni cause its been asked every year for 3 years running, just like cearrbhach.Jack has also been asked twice


so my safe gamble is on gealt and bimse..


Triail, your guess is as good as mine, an triail is quite general, your often able to intertwine a good few characters in each answer and for every answer i do i stick in the brief theme of the whole play anyway (cant hurt).


finally for stair, 406 2fm said:

AISLING PHOLATUIL
FIANNAIOCHT/RURAIOCHT

Would they put Ruraiocht and Fianniaocht in the same year?
Thats kinda like putting scoileanna na mbard and filiocht na mbard.

yeah,still though, the documentary was in the making long beforehand, i mean, i could be wrong, but id say the commission knew about it before setting it...

maybe not, but the examiners will have some heap of paedo-bashing to get through if he does come up!!

Knuffel

All i know is that if Oiche Nollaig doesn't come up i'm royally f*cked for the higher level poem!

brazilicious
