boardface: My dad grew up in Hong Kong and went to boarding school in Ireland. His father was a Supreme Court Judge who learnt to speak fluent Mandarin. He died when dad was 14, from a heart attack at a dinner party in front of all their friends. He was 49. He only ever spoke to my dad in Gaelige, a language dad was never able to grasp.
