Dear Críostóir,

I did find some time to look at your Yola text. It looks quiet
"Fleminglish" to me. Certainly it is just an attempt to try to  find
a possible translation. For me it was a pleasant "spielerei", but
nevertheless, Roslar and Roeselare are not so far away from each other.
This is my homework. You should take it with more than a pinch of
salt i guess.
