Daniel Quayle is talking for the most part in 'Kiaull as Cooish' about events that are over and done with already, and he's talking about the music as well - it's the chat that we're hearing. Phil Gawne was ill so Simon Clarke had to find recordings he'd made to make use of them in 'Goll as Gaccan', but there wasn't a particular piece in the Manx Gaelic for us. In our customary way at the present time, we hear another extract from a translation into the Manx Gaelic of Dracula by Bram Stoker in 'Claare ny Gael'.
