    For the Aiste, Alt Nuachtan or diospoireacht, is there anything you're especially concentrating on?

    I'm hoping Irish language, poverty and the recession. Any other ones I should be prepared for?

    I'm hoping for the recession, would be lovely.

    There better not be anything on the GAA, I wouldn't be able to write an essay on it in English let alone Irish.

    If it's sport in general though I suppose I could write a bit on the Grand Slam and Leinster winning the Heineken Cup.

    Health came up in two consecutive years though so I suppose there's a small chance sport can come up again.

    I'm banking on an essay on the Irish language or poverty / the recession / politicians.

    I know it's a hand enough title but how would you get 3 pages out of it?
    what points would you use?

    all I can think of is:
    -Gaeltacht
    -scoileanna lán Gaeilge
    -nuachtáin gaeilge - foinse, lá, saol
    -TG4
    -Gael Linn, Feachtas....

    even still they'd all be fairly short points?

    any ideas? :D

    Well the only thing I have learned is a debate on the Irish Language. So I really hope it comes up.

    I'm hoping poverty to come up in the aiste. It would suit my story perfectly.
