Any help is greatly appreciated.

Roscommons float is the best in the parade! I'm not sure if drae is the right word for flost. Wait for others to comment. _________________ Seans Eile - free software to help you practice your Irish Scéala na Wombait - Muddle-headed Memes and Musings

I've always seen Na hÉireannaigh (abú) 2) I'd think Is é flóta de Roscommon an ceann is fearr sa thaispeántas! (depending on what "Roscommons" means) Wait for more input.

Fir Manach but Contae Fhear Manach...... or maybe that Ros is the same in the genitive like Baile but I seem to remember that it used to take the genitive form Rois once upon a time but that might be old Irish..... _________________ www.nigelmcloughlin.com Garda na dTóineanna I have a University Diploma in Irish and a Fáinne Óir but this does NOT mean that I can't be wrong!
