Thanks!
That helps a lot!
Although actually, an additional reason i was/am looking for information
on Irish Gaelic dialects is because a friend of mine asked me to come up
with an Irish dialect/accent of Hebrew for him.  Not exactly a conlang,
but definitely an unusual ConAccent - what with all the [G]s and /T/=[h]s
running around!
Luckily his Irish ancestors came from Dublin, which doesn't seem to have
its own Irish Gaelic dialect anymore, so i don't have to worry about
being faithful to the exact phonetics of any specific dialect when i go
to map the Irish sounds onto Hebrew.
