Hello Hollie.

Tha mi ag atharraich sgrìobhainn a-nochd.

It is stormy with lightening today.

Yes, I have the Teach Yourself and the Colloquiall course. The TY Conversational is on my wishlist. I also have the Eurotalk for when I'm on my own at work, but the sound quality is poor indeed for an interactive DVD.
