"Portrait of a young girl" by Petrus Christus

The Abbey in the Oakwood by Caspar David Friedrich.

I began contributing in April 2006. Ceoil is gaelic for 'music'; tá me an Irish editor, from the soon to be independant republic of Cork. I like the collaborative aspect of wikipedia very much, and I noticed very early on that longer term editors were more than willing to guide, school, and give advice. In paticular, Outriggr (was briefly lost at sea, and and was much missed at the time, though when he washed up again 68 hour later, shaked himself and wave his cute little tail, 1000's wondered what all the fuss was about), WesleyDodds, SandyGeorgia have been instructive, friendly, and helpful.

A list of enemys will follow, rest assured.

Statements:

• I've been to Dublin (staary burd); its not that great, and they talk funny. Galway (ye right)? It's grand, but grand only. Been to Limerick (be wide bro.) too. Shower of kn...only jokin, some of my best friend are from that town. Belfast (the situeatien) is better now, but still as rough as sticks. But...it's all about Poland, and Albinia, Ireland for me at the moment.
• Someday I'm going to die. Hopefully, before then, Francis Bacon will be an FA.

		Ceoil, may this pie be as sweet and tartly as your edits (forgive the pun) on Preludes (Chopin), and although it is obvious that this pie is not edible (nor is it a barnstar), at least it looks delicious from your computer screen. And many happy returns and a long Wiki-life. Cheers! --~~MusicalConnoisseur~~ Got Classical? 05:25, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
