Crikey, has anyone related (or can anyone relate) those pronunciations and spellings to the IPA? Is there any resemblance to its pronunciations?

They're quite regular - look at the Wikipedia page for Irish orthography to get a good set of rules.

Right, I once took time to learn most of the IPA but some of those I couldn't pronounce if my life depended on it, Caoilfhionn for instance.

Perhaps, I should now take the time to reverse engineer it.
