Poor old Sean
Sean Bean has been cast in surprisingly few Old Woman roles
In the same way that “Hard” is used metaphorically in English to mean Difficult, you can use “Crua” as Gaeilge to mean Difficult. But mirroring it, you can also use “Bog” to mean Easy. Like in the phrase “Tóg go bog é”, Take it easy.
