THIS LAD HAS the moves.

Not only does he have the moves, he has the moves as gaeilge.

He’s decided to finally put the Irish he learned for his Leaving Cert to good use, and use it to his advantage to chat up some girls.

Even when he’s told “tá buachaill cara agam”, he’s not fazed.

Okay, so he could work on his chat up lines (we’re not sure how long “I am walking on the beach” and “I like playing football” are going to cut it), and the push ups are baffling, but we applaud his effort.

Bualadh bos.
