Welcome to the Clickable  Irish Gaelic Cottage

It is washday at the cottage. Everyone is busy- mom is carrying laundry and bringing a bowl of porridge for the daughter who is mending clothes or doing some needlework. Grandma sits by the fire darning stockings. Baskets of laundry need drying and folding. Dad can not get any rest because of the children and the dog needs to go out. The kettle is boiling on the hearth which serves also to warm the cat!Click around the image and learn your Irish Gaelic- then perhaps you can stop in and help with the chores!  This page is very much under construction.
