Now if I can just convince a beautiful Irish lady to call me, I know how to answer.

OK, a Bhríd. Tabhair d’uimhir dó. :aingeal:

Ahh lads if only I were younger. I'm nearly in my 60s. That's a very old profile pic.
Check me out on Facebook if you want to know how I look now (Bríd Eilís Ní Fhlatharta) :LOL:

Go firinneach? Tá trí bhliana is caoga agam.

53

you can say like in English.
Tá mé caoga trí (bliana d’aois).

Or like the older people, and traditional way to say it.
Tá mé chúig bliana déag is dhá fhicid (d’aois).
