Thank you for sharing your videos Michael. I've recently visited Listowel twice in the last couple of years and we plan to be back in 2025. My grandfather grew up there. My great uncle was on the Council as I understand it. Sadly for me my last second cousin past away only a few years ago, so I missed meeting her.

This beautiful family, O'Brien's were reared very near to my family home in Dirreen Athea, Co. Limerick .(Blane cross). Their parents Tom and Mary were dedicated hard working people, and provided only the best for their children. She was a dedicated mother as all mothers on the road were, and raised her family with good standards and gave them every opportunity at education in Athea National School, and Abbeyfeale secondary school. My mother ran a country grocery shop, one of those older children would always arrive at some point each day for their daily provisions. Mary (their Mom) was an absolute Lady, and would come often to the shop for a larger weekly shop. She and my Mom were very good friends, and she always came in the kitchen for a chat and a cuppa. I remember when they decided to leave Dirreen , Mary told my Mom, that "Tom was getting itchy for the road". To the best of my knowledge they moved to Ardfert, Co. Kerry. I think they were not there very long when Tom got into poor health, they returned to Athea, and lived in a housing estate in the village. I dont recall how long Tom lived on there until his death, but to the best of my knowledge he is burried in Athea. After some time Mary learned to drive, and bought a car, she faithfully called to see my Mom at least twice a year. I cant exactly identify any of the children from the numbered photo, but from the other larger photos I can identify quiet a few of them . Bridget, Mary, and Doety ( and she was a doety little girl) were the oldest, Bridget being my own age. The first son is Thomas called after his Dad. Then there were twins, cant recall their names, but I am pretty sure Richard is one. There were two much younger girls, Rachel and Bernadette, my mother stood as Godmother to one of them. My mom cooked a roast turkey every year for them and brought it to them on Christmas morning. They appreciated it so much. Mary was a great cook, and the beautiful aroma of stews simmering in the pot on the stick fire would give you an appetite when my sisters and I were passing by on our way to the village and stopped for a while for a chat. Two big families at either end of that short little road that bounded Moyvane Co. Kerry. I have incredible memories of my childhood there, and I am sure the O'Brien family have the same. *The Good Old Times*

Or in the real world, a bunch of knackers that will rob your house before trying to sell you shite carpet or paint your drive black and call it tarmac. When they leave nothing but rubbish everywhere. Lets not forget every knacker wedding ever. Always fights and damaging the hotel but its never their fault.

The only ‘locution ‘ I ever got from God The Father was in a church in Altrincham, Manchester. I used to go there to daily Mass at one point. About 20 years or so ago I was there during a ‘traveller’s funeral. I had heard the deceased was a king of a clan. The church was packed and there was a class, horse drawn hearse with all the trimmings. There was a group of fine, tall lads and lassies decked out to the nines in black slacks and Snow White shirts. Some of the lads were sauntering in and out during the Mass - even during the Consecration and I thought to myself - “would somebody not teach them some respect”? It was at that point that I heard a thunderous voice in my head which said - “don’t you dare criticise! These are My people!” It then struck me that these travellers are a true, nomadic people and, as such, have a special, privileged place in God’s creation and are greatly protected by Him. Most of them will have experienced deprivation we couldn’t even imagine and they therefore share this suffering with Christ Jesus. Always resist any form of criticism of these people - internally and externally- or you’ll truly risk the rath of God. God bless to all

CYRIL Kelly's response to my video Fire & Light cultural night Listowel. "Thanks for that Culture Night Fire & Light display video, Michael My faith in the supreme power of long gone, cranky Canon Brennan is much diminished! How could he permit that display by two scantily clad nubile hussies with their pyrotechnic gyrations right outside the church gates, lighting actual flames plus metaphorical fires in ould geezers like myself as they stood around gawking. And after all the pulpit pounding and the wrath of God sermons, with righteous spittle spraying on meek parishioners below, all because of those deadly mortal and immortal sins of company keeping ... yet the Canon’s ghost did not call hell’s damnation, in hails of fire and brimstone, down on the whole pack of heathens there that night! Ah, I’m afraid Listowel is gone to the dogs." Michael Guerin.

Tinkers/travellers have evolved. Not in a very nice way. Have memories of them doing work thinning turnips and spreading potatoes and of course repairing buckets. They were paid and fed. There was always a caution surrounding them because they would steal the cross off a donkeys back, but they wouldnt really steal the donkey. They fought among themselves and the women folk had to be rough/tough with tongues like fish wives because they were the the recipient of a few thumps. Modern travellers... Nah, They have developed a culture of bare knuckle, video call outs. Tarmac scams, drugs. Rubbish tipping, Have developed an untouchable attitude as result of the ethnic status, and are well able to set up situations for compensation There are very few "travellers". The country side is littered with their Macmansions and white vans. Certainly not the humble "Hiace" Nah, Different crowd altogether.
