Thanks księżycowy :)

I emailed Breacadh a few days ago. Haven't heard back yet. I might try making a long distance phone call.
Am wondering if maybe they can't send to where I am (Australia), though I can't imagine why, as long as I cover the shipping. I've ordered from a couple of other Irish book shops with no issues. Fingers crossed they can ship to Southern Hemisphere.

I can't speak to the Southern Hemisphere, but I know I ordered the rest of my collection directly through them, and they shipped the collection to the U.S. with no problem.

If you have trouble contacting them, I might be able to point you to an online store or two that might be able to help. I'm surprised you haven't gotten a reply back from your email. Maybe poke them again.

I just remembered about the German-based textbook for Irish called Sláinte!, I'll put it on the list once I get confirmation as to whether is is in Standard/CO or a dialect (and which one). I'm guessing CO, but don't want to chance it.

Bit of a zombie quote, but just wanted to ask if you (or anyone else) has experience of this particular course and whether anyone would recommend it?

I don't currently have access to it, but if memory serves me correctly it teaches CO/Standard Irish. If that's any concern to you. Otherwise, you'll either have to wait until I'm back at my library (er- house) in about three weeks. I can't say as I've pawed at it in quite a while. Or perhaps galaxyrocker is familiar with it?

I just had a check of the resource list, and that's where it's listed. Glad my memory isn't that bad after all. :P

Would your memory stretch to remembering if all the discs were audio CDs or was one of them a DVD? Have I got it right in thinking that course is associated with a TV-series sort of thing?

It did have a video component originally. Unfortunately, I can't remember if the package came with a DVD or if the videos were posted on an official website. It certainly came with audio CDs. If I had to guess, I'd say the videos were on a website.

I had a look at the introduction on the Internet Archive, and aparrently it does come with two DVDs with the videos, and one audio cd. I thought it was three audio cds. My mistake.
