E貌ghann: Bha sinn fada nas fhortanaiche a thaobh an t-s矛de na bha na Tirisdich!

Cathy: Bha gu dearbh.

E貌ghann: Bha, bha sin d矛reach uabhasach. Tha mi 补鈥� smaointinn gun robh an latha far an robh am F猫is aca bha e s貌nraichte math, chunnaic mi gun robh 补鈥� ghrian 补鈥� de脿rrsadh anns na dealbhan a chunnaic mi, agus tha fios 补鈥檓 gum bi na Tirisdich 补鈥� cumail f矛or dheagh chuirm sh矛os ann a shin, is m貌r am beud nach b鈥� urrainn dhomh a dhol dhan an d脿 chuid.

Ach Dihaoine sa chaidh, bha mise 补鈥� ruith campa tron t-seachdain airson na h-貌igridh, agus bha mi 补鈥� faighinn na teachdaireachdan Diciadain bho na m脿thraichean ag r脿dh, 鈥淒猫 fon ghr猫in a tha 补鈥� dol a thachairt Dihaoine?鈥� Tha sinn 补鈥� faighinn rabhadh s矛de a tha eagallach鈥�.

Is an uair sin, dh霉isg mi madainn Dihaoine, is bha d矛reach 补鈥� ghrian 补鈥� de脿rrsadh, is bha e d矛reach cho 脿lainn. 鈥橲 e latha cho 脿lainn a fhuair sinn o chionn sia m矛osan! Bha e, bha e d矛reach iongantach. Bha sin 猫ibhinn mar a sheachnaich Le貌dhas an cuid as miosa den t-s矛de, agus bha deagh Fh猫is ann, agus tha e an-c貌mhnaidh math. Tha Ste貌rnabhagh d矛reach air bhoil, is tha e 补鈥� c貌rdadh rium.

Cathy: Bha e iongantach gun d鈥� fhuair sinn 脿s leis, chan ann tric a bhios sin 补鈥� tachairt tha eagal orm. Ach, gu dearbh, ch貌rd e ri daoine, agus tha e 补鈥� sealltainn cuideachd spiorad n脿bachd nuair a tha daoine 补鈥� tighinn c貌mhla bhon bha iad air 脿ite fhosgladh dhan an fheadhainn a bhiodh 补鈥� siubhal chun na F猫ise nach b鈥� urrainn teantaichean a chur an 脿irde. Bha an spiorad sin snog cuideachd ann an Tiriodh, nach robh?

E貌ghann: Gl猫 mhath. Bha sin, bha sin d矛reach iongantach a bhith 补鈥� faicinn daoine 补鈥� fosgladh nan dorsan aca, agus tha fios agad fh猫in ma tha thu air coinneachadh ri duine sam bith 脿 Tiriodh, 鈥檚 e daoine cho fialaidh 鈥檚 a ghabhas air 补鈥� Ghaidhealtachd. Agus 鈥檚 e 脿ite gu math G脿idhealach a th鈥� ann an Tiriodh, fhios agad? Tha daoine 补鈥� d矛ochuimhneachadh gu bheil an cuibhreann de daoine anns an eilean seo aig a bheil G脿idhlig. Fhios agad, tha e cho 脿rd ri 脿ite sam bith taobh a-muigh na h-Eileanan Siar, so tha cultar G脿idhealach is fialaidh ceart acasan, agus tha aoigheachd a bha daoine 补鈥� faighinn d矛reach s貌nraichte, agus tha e math fh猫in, is tha mi an d貌chas gum faigh mi an cothrom a dhol ann aon bhliadhna nuair nach eil e air an aon deireadh-sheachdain ri Hebcelt.

Cathy: Cha chreid mi nach eil thu d矛reach air sin fhaighinn leis na thubhairt thu! Tha mi cinnteach gum bi iad 补鈥� f貌nadh thugadsa ag r脿dh, 鈥淭hig a-nall! Thig a-nall! D矛reach cha leig thu leas a dhol gu c脿il!鈥� Sin an rud a thachras th猫id mi an urras.

Iain: A bheil, a bheil, mar a chanas iad sa ch脿nan eile, a bheil role models agad ma-th脿? A bheil tidsearan ann tro na bliadhnaichean a tha air buaidh sh貌nraichte a thoirt ort fh猫in, agus mar a tha thu 补鈥� deiligeadh ri d鈥� obair san latha a th鈥� ann?

Donalda: Tha mi 补鈥� smaointinn nuair a chaidh mi dhan sgoil an toiseach, 补鈥� chiad tidsear a bh鈥� agam riamh, Miss MacInnes, Ceitidh Mary, agus bha i c脿irdeach dhomh cuideachd. Tha deagh chuimhn鈥� agam oirrese, agus air 补鈥� chiad latha a bh鈥� agam riamh anns an sgoil. Agus bha mi c貌mhla rithe san r霉m bheag airson tr矛 bliadhna, agus tha mi 补鈥� smaointinn 鈥檚 d貌cha an uair sin gun robh mi 补鈥� faireachdainn gun e deagh rud a bhiodh ann a bhith nad thidsear. Gheibheadh tu a bhith trod ri daoine, is gheibheadh tu a bhith gan sti霉ireadh an siud 鈥檚 an seo. So, chanainn-sa gun e ise 补鈥� chiad, gu h-脿raid sa bhun-sgoil, gu bheil deagh chuimhn鈥� agam oirrese, agus 鈥檚 d貌cha a-rithist gun e sin adhbhar a chaidh mi airson an dreuchd a chaidh mi air a shon.

Iain: Ach nuair a tha thu an aois a tha sin, agus nuair a tha thu 补鈥� gluasad air adhart chun an ath chlas, tha thu ag ionndrainn an neach-teagaisg a bh鈥� agad gu m貌r, nach eil?

Donalda: Tha. Tha mi 补鈥� smaointinn nuair a smaoineachas tu air feadhainn bheag 补鈥� dol dhan sgoil an toiseach, an fheadhainn a tha iad e貌lach air, 鈥檚 e 鈥檚 d貌cha am m脿thair. So ma tha tidsear agad a tha dhen aon se貌rsa, a tha 补鈥� coimhead 脿s do dh猫idh is a tha c貌ir is a tha laghach, a h-uile se貌rsa rud mar sin mar a bha Ceitidh, tha sin 补鈥� toirt... tha meas m貌r agad air an t猫 sin, agus bidh deagh chuimhn鈥� agad oirre cuideachd.

Seachdain no dh脿 脿s d猫idh 补鈥� ch貌mhraidh san Athenaeum, fhuair e teachdaireachd f貌n bho aon den luchd-gnothaich a bhiodh 补鈥� d猫anamh reic is ceannach dha. Bhiodh an claigeann ga reic ann an Sotheby鈥檚 ann an latha no dh脿 agus bha d霉il gun cosgadh e co-dhi霉 leth-cheud millean not. An robh e ag iarraidh d猫iligeadh ann am pr矛sean cho 脿rd? Rinn Slim soilleir dha gu robh. D猫 bh鈥� ann an leth-cheud millean not ach airgead p貌caid do dhuine coltach ris-san.

An latha 脿s d猫idh dha a bhith 补鈥� bruidhinn ris 补鈥� Mhorair Merr, bha e air an claigeann fhaicinn, agus thug e buaidh mh貌r air. Cha b鈥� e gun robh e giseagach ann an d貌igh sam bith. Air a chaochladh, cha robh saobh-chr脿bhadh 补鈥� tighinn faisg air a n脿dar. Cha b鈥� e idir. B鈥� e bha ann gur ann le Damien Hirst a bha an claigeann, gur e esan a dhealbh e 鈥� fear-ealain cho ainmeil, no cho droch-chli霉iteach, 鈥檚 a bha san t-saoghal. D猫 an diofar, fhad 鈥檚 a ghleidheadh an claigeann a luach. Agus bha e cinnteach 脿s gun gleidheadh.

Bha daoine ag r脿dh nach robh ann ach bling-bling, ach cha b鈥� e. Nach robh na fiaclan cho f矛or 鈥檚 a ghabhadh fiaclan a bhith. Bhuineadh iad do dhuine a bha 补鈥� coiseachd air an talamh uaireigin, duine coltach ris fh猫in, agus a-nis bha iad cho st脿iteil, urramach, cuairtichte le daoimeanan drileanach, geala, de脿lrach.

Bha e air 补鈥� f貌n a-rithist agus M矛cheal, am fear-d猫iligidh aige, ann an Sotheby鈥檚 air 补鈥� f貌n-l脿imhe. Chaidh 补鈥� phr矛s os cionn leth-cheud millean, ach thuirt e ris cumail air. Cha robh airgead 补鈥� dol a chur stad air. Chaidh an tairgse san rup suas gu leth-cheud millean 鈥檚 a c貌ig, ach cha robh sin gu diofar.听 Fhuair e an claigeann. 鈥橲 ann leis-san a bha e a-nis.
