    The ould stock are nearly all gone. The country is destroyed for the want of some Irishness. Breaks my heart. Yes! Our heritage is nearly lost to mere memory, and my heart will never lose the scar it carries, more and more each day. Thank you for the reminder, even if I'm having a cry, x

    Very fortunate and honored to have visited the cottage of this great spiritual
    healer in 94, having done enormous research and the fact that she was condemned
    from the Altar as a witch which was untrue,her healing powers were known far and wide throughout Ireland, Ironically when she did pass away no fewer that 7 priests
    served at her last mass even though years previously they condemned her.

    I love hearing the fairy stories. I follow that path and also work with herbs. Recently I found out that my Boland family are from Feakle..

    Many thanks for a great story, these are all part of our history and heritage and should be taught at school as well as other native storie. If your into stories, I highly recommend, "I MET AN OLD IRISH CRONE.

      He's Eddie Lenihan Anna, an amazing man who has collected so much folklore and goes around schools sharing it with children. It was tremendous meeting him

      He is interesting. He came around to the schools when we were children and told us stories. I met him in Colbert Station there in Limerick a few years ago and we had a chat.

      Here you go Jen, as told by Pat:
      "She turned one husband into a hare.
      (He) went out the door anyway and 8 or 9 beagles followed him;
      came back 2 hours later, jumped in by the door again by the fire,
      and all the back of his trousers were all torn"

    Famous Quote, There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio than there are drempt of in your philosophy. Hamlet. How many people realy know about the world they live in, Time travel is real but not many people believe this because they don't bother to do the research, they prefere to believe everything their told on main stream media.

      Rich H Yes I noticed recently that it was barely audible on the tablet I had. Sound is fine on my phone and desktop. Will see if we can do anything about it

      @@fholohan I've just watched this very interesting & enjoyable video with my headphones on & noticed these comments. I can say that for me, the dialogue from those talking is coming through the Right channel (ear piece) only, & the soundtrack (background music, environmental noises, flowing water etc.) is coming through the left channel (ear piece) only. Therefore, as some tablets & mobile phones etc. only have mono speakers you'd not be able to hear one of the channels. This can also be down to broken headphones or faulty speakers, but, I can confirm this is the case for me.
      It's an easy fix, I'm not trying to teach you how to boil an egg, but if you're having trouble sorting it out I am more than happy to fix it for you as I really enjoyed this video & would wish that future generations may too. Feel free to contact me if you need any help via email or these comments, or google my name, it's my real name & I use the same old picture of me on a few of my other profile pages. My 94 year old Donegal Nanna is still alive & well, & as a boy I didn't feel like I fitted in totally here in my native England, until I met more & more of my Irish family & realised, you can take a boy out of Ireland, but you'll never take the Irish out of that boy. Happy to help, kind regards, Martyn (martynrandlesATgmailDOTcom)
