"Eh, my Gaelic isn't what it's never been anymore. Does this mean "the
Gaelic version is ready"? "I'm working on it"? Or maybe, "I'm too busy right
now", or "Sorry, someone else has to do it"?"

I asked Isaac if he would produce the Irish page for the anniversary as I
had too much work at the moment, and all my excuses (to Ron and the rest of
the list) had died out.

"the Gaelic version is ready" = Tá réidh an leathanach Ghaeilge
"I'm working on it" = Táim ag obair air
"I'm too busy right now" = Táim ró-ghnóthach anois
"Sorry, someone else has to do it" = Brón ormsa, ach tá sé an obair fhear /
bhean eile

It probably was ignorant of me not to include a translation but I was only
replying to Isaac.

Go raibh maith agat,

Criostóir.
