All of this makes me so proud to be British. We have a distinct and ancient culture that is envied by many, in particular the British. They colonised us for 800 years in a most brutal way. They tried everything in their power to destroy our culture and our religion and our language, but the last they did not succeed. We are ancient people and will prevail no matter what.

My granny &2 sisters were born & reared in Camden street above a eg shop which is now a restaurant. My mother & her cousins ate there recently & realised which building it was & restaurant owners allowed dem to go upstairs & walk through the rooms of their parents childhood home during de war of independence." fascinating of a time way beyond that 110 years ago. I was thinking sugar; decweatherspoons....

My granny lived 3 Leinster road & I was told as little girl about de sandeman from rathmines library/clock tower at the bottom of her road..would come take us little children if we were not asleep by midnight! Nostalgia . Everything is fleeting.

I often think of the moniker Strumpdt City too from that wonderful novel I read years back. My heart is in Dublin.. my home now is west of Ireland d cos if I stayed in my beloved city I fear death & addiction would of ruled my life. I ran out of there /3 years ago & when O return my heart is heavy by the disparities but lighter from the easy laughs, banter etc from its citizens. I do feel you escaped tho

Misery Hill still seems fitting w those out of place glass structures pushing Dubliners out from their communities .

This is wonderful, moving & informative. Wow! TU

I'd be doing de same. That royal red reminds me of colonialism, fox hunting & inequality.

Great fascinating bit of history. I lived in a flat in Pembroke road years ago in my early /0's & despite the dilapidated grandeur & 'declaratory bronze' we could afford our rent my young adult children cannot afford such a rite of passage to move out from a parents home in Dublin currently

Peter 14:34 Weird Green ligth on your Screen and its gos have a look mate 😮🙈

I say, I am impressed with the Irish folks, they aren't impressed at all with gales & rain, busy about their business despite it all, like nothing to it (snap fingers). Good one Peter, showing this side of life. Very encouraging to be the same way! 😁

Apparently during the 1916 Rising Markiewicz allowed James Connolly's wife Lillie and youngest children stay in the cottage for their safety. Years later their daughters Fiona and Moira recalled watching their mother stare out from the cottage at Dublin City in flames as the rebellion went on, no doubt anxious to know what was happening to her husband and her other children. ❤🔥🇮🇪

A Happy New Year, Peter! Wish you a prosperous year, 2025! I have not seen a notification of LS...Hope everything is going well It is breathtaking as I walk with you in Dublin. The buildings in the city are like dressed up in Xmas costume with decorations and lights. Especially, the Temple Bar is something special, dreamworld with fantasy... What is your favorite decoration of the year in Dublin? Surprisingly, not drunks/toxicated ppl on the street..yet..haha Hmm I am not familiar with those statutes 20:39 What is the story behind it? Well done, Peter. Beautifully produced. It is beyond extraordinary. 26:36 I remember. Apologies for my absence due to having elderly in-laws over for about a month. They are in 80s and i try to keep eyes on them for 24/7.

YOU AND THE OTHER CYCLISTS DON'T SIGNAL? WHAT UP? IS DUBLIN FULL OF LAWLESS CYCLISTS? I WAS GOING TO VISIT, BUT..........

To think of a man who had so little yet would share it with a stray dog. I think there is a special place in heaven for that man - and all the fish and gunfights with angels his heart desires.

well done, all!

It's terrible to see it like this. It should be restored and valued. 🇮🇪

I was raised in Drimnagh and Crumlin through the '50s and '60s and started school in Weaver's Square in '54 (I think). He was a regular feature up and down the Crumlin Road, usually firing from the 50 platform at following traffic and pedestrians. I recall him as wearing an off-cream trench coat always. I was in the Cusack bar a few years ago for a pint, and there were newspaper clippings about him up on the wall (along with a lot of other Dublin docklands memorabilia). The granny always put on the beef tea when the appetites dropped. She also talked about a character called Rotten Chops, a butcher's bike delivery lad, but that was before my time.

She should be moved to O'Connell Street or Henry street. I'm Irish and I never knew about her.

5th province was meath in the centre back in the day

Remember walking down those streets as a kid my dads from Wexford town. Brings back memories. It's very modern looking now.

Just a reminder to all you new pagen folk, don't forget to give your firstborn to your gods, ye know?

Это 1 марта? Когда идёшь по снежных лужах 2024!

Покажите D12, cкучаю❤❤❤

Я люблю это кольцо, за ожидание и окончания , проехов его. На ,Esposito Road Walkinstown Dublin ❤

My father Danny Doherty looked after Bang Bang in his latter years and we used to bring him a pot of stew and a few bottles of stout when he lived in Bridgefoot street. My dad had the famous key which I handed over to the Lord Mayor of Dublin some years ago.

I think left side driving is better than right side

Great

To add more Misery Joe Kelly's pub was only a stones throw.

I came across this program love it,thankyou for great music to one and all,William N,Ireland

Salut Peter, merci pour la promenade, je me languis d'y être , j'espère qu'il ne fera pas trop froid, j'habite dans le sud de la France ...

Great to see so many children and youngstersin touch with their traditions. Thanks for the video.

I went to visit a mate in Dublin a few years ago , loved it , loved the folk I met , got to love the Irish . Hi from 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 .

Lovely video ~ the Xmas lights and decorated shop displays are beautiful. If that doesn’t put you in the festive spirit I don’t know what else would lol I have enjoyed your videos throughout the year, and thanks again for taking the time and effort to edit and upload them. Wishing you a Merry Christmas 🎅🏻

Super, merci beaucoup, j'y vais en janvier, j'espère qu'il y aura encore les décorations de noël .

I'm Irish, so seeing walking tours in Dublin city centre (which is a bit rough) I'm always worried you'll be hassled on the street. So glad it went swimmingly. Sláinte!

If anyone is thinking of visiting the Hellfire club, take a walk into Masseys wood after. It's just across the road and is equally as spooky and beautiful. We used to play in both places as kids and freak each other out with ghost stories.
