    Its quite extraordinary and refreshing to hear an irish man speak english as a second language

    I searched this out after hearing the story about :
    Neville Presho's house,
    that disappeared on Tory Island.
    I really love what I found in this superb video.
    Thank you so much for making it.

    Isle of Tenerife,
    Spain,
    Africa.
    Brilliant!
    What an interesting, informative video!
    Well done!
    And all said in beautiful, melodious Donegal English, the favourite accent of many.
    Now, a maybe strange request:
    As many folks are interested in Tory, not only for its fine paintings and archeology, but also for a maybe even rarer aspect of its culture, the Gaelic language, said to be less depleted there than anywhere else.
    Would you consider doing the very same layout as this video, but all completely in full, natural, Donegal Gaelic?
    I'd be riveted to hear it.
    Best wishes,
    Patchy.

    Thank you so much for this. I need to learn Gaelic so I can visit one day. I've been writing songs, children stories and now working on a novel all based in Tory and I've never been there! I truly appreciate this.

    Having heard the excellent and exciting BBC podcast about the vanishing house, it's good to see place too. Thx for posting...

    I went to the top of Tor Mor and found fourteen stacks of piled stones. It was a peaceful place free of any taint of Balor's wrath. Instead I associated the stacks with the fourteen Stations of the Cross: something leftover from the Penal Times when the faithful worshipped under the sky after their churches were destroyed.

    Hi. This documentary is amazing! We are putting on a play about Colmcille and Tory at Ardnashee special school in Derry in October. As it is difficult for the children to remember their lines a lot of the show will be digital/ pre- recorded. Would you mind if we used some of the wonderful visuals of the Tory landscape in our production? We would greatly appreciate your help. Many thanks from Ardnashee School and College!

      ...I should have added we will, of course, acknowledge the wonderful visuals if you permit us to borrow them. Thanks again!

    While you are there ask them what happened to Neville's house.
