Do you notice how every single child in these old timely videos & documentaries is so kind and respectful they also don’t complain at all or eat lollies and snacks everyday they also help there parents with literally everything which installs a hard ingrained good work ethics good morals & good level of respect not one kid has to be told off!!!! Here in the future 2020 every single child needs a screen including my own hahaha

[@ronaldmartin7892]

I've just come across this. Part 2. It takes me back to 1940 when I was evacuated from London to Shaftesbury in Dorset. The corn harvest, sheaves and stooks. At 8 years old I still helped. The Threshing machine was driven by a Steam Traction engine. I still have a picture of me on top of a haystack. Horse drawn hay carts and me being hoisted up on the back of the horse. Halcyon days. But then in 1941 back to London and the bombing. Thankyou CR's video vaults

A big hello to Mr. TEVLIN THANKS AGAIN FOLKS GREAT JOB.

[@patkearney9320]

My Grandfather was a blacksmith as well I would watch him working with his huge arms, he was always working doing work and being paid meant little to him. He was a volunteer and used to fix broken or near burnt out weapons. He was badly injured twice and when once he came home from an English prison my Grandmother didn’t recognise him he was so skinny. But he was kind and decent on another subject your name is uncommon I have never known any TEVLINS but best wishes Ireland ☘️.

I am always so very proud of my roots. I left Ireland in 1963 because I met an Englishman in Cork. I trained as a Nurse in Cork. My dear Mum was afraid that if I went to England to train , I might meet an Englishman and marry him, so I stayed in Cork and met the Englishman there instead,!

[@LetsAllDrinkToTheDeathOfAClown]

Peculiarly mass immigration and demographic transformation is only happening in European populated nations from the USA/Canada to Australia/New Zealand to the EU nations & the rest of Europe to Russia; this deliberate demographic displacement & replacement has been planned since at least the late 19th Century when we were given a blueprint for their plans in "The Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion". Say what you want about who wrote it, the fact remains that EVERYTHING said in that book has come to pass and we can easily see the people doing this to us if you can put your emotions aside and be honest with yourself.

[@LetsAllDrinkToTheDeathOfAClown]

Also THE Henry Ford's 1924 publication about the Protocols 20 something years after they first appeared in print is also a VERY IMPORTANT read. If I wrote the title of his book here it would trigger KZbin's anti-truth algorithm so just search for a book written by Henry Ford, the inventor of the assembly line and founder of Ford Motor Company and you should be able to find it. In case you can't find it though here's the title with one word changed to hopefully beat the algorithm, "The International Chew: The World's Foremost Problem".

[@rener689]

Please note that our comforts are just making us ill. Just sitting behind desks and eating fats and sugar without burning any of them is no progress. These lads may have had some pain in the back from time to time caused by the hard labour, but there was no stress and anti-depressives were not needed, back in those days. It makes me feel at home, although I was born in 1973 and I'm not even Irish. Luckely I've been in Galway for a couple of weeks, for work and I can guarantee you, Ireland instantly felt like home to me (I'm from Holland)! Love the people, love the accent, love the landscapes, love the GUINNESS and for sure love the traditional music!! Thanks a million! Please keep these traditions alive!

[@brianm2881]

I doubt there was no stress, but it may not have been a concept as we understand it now. When 2 of your children die from tuberculosis, as many children did in the old days, you better believe that'll induce some stress. And when you're sent against your will to a Magdalene Laundry simply for the crime of being too pretty, that's going to be stressful. And when you've had a poor harvest and can't get the money together to pay the landlord the rent due, that's going to be stressful as well.

[@INTUITIVENORSK2303]

So true Rene! Actually, do have your DNA test done, because you never know, you may just have a bit of Irish DNA.

[@Doxymeister]

Even though this is about Ireland, and I'm from the US, this brought back some wonderful memories! My grandmother taught me to churn butter when I was so young I don't even remember how old I was. She put me in charge of the butter production during the summer when we were there, and part of it went each day to the farmer that she rented from. (Years later, my grade school teacher handed us each a 1/2 pint carton of whole milk to teach us to make butter, and I proudly showed her I already knew how!) Later each afternoon, I saddled up the farmer's plow horse, Sally, and went down the mountain to collect the mail for every family that lived up there that wanted delivery right to their door. I didn't consider that "work", I saw it as being entrusted with something important and was proud to be able to help. Several days a week, my brother and I helped in the farmer's dairy, then some days we hoed and picked strawberries--which WAS hard work, LOL. Looking back, those were some of the best days of my life. Thank you for bringing back those memories!

Else you're being fooled by high fructose corn syrup. fraudulently sold as dark honey and hydrogenated at that. You'll get sicker. We only gave whiskey to the adults. Just water for the children.

Utterly fascinated by this bygone era of Irish traditionalism and what it represents. It’s hard to put in to words and explain the feeling, does anyone else agree? It feels like the saying “hard men create good times and good times create soft men” (or whatever variation of it you prefer). We definitely face different challenges and issues in the modern day and I’m not taking away from anyone’s struggle but something about this simple life where folk just had to survive and get on with it is so appealing, as opposed to sitting 40 hours a week in front of a computer screen and going home to order a takeaway. This is much more natural to human life, it’s sad that it’s mostly gone.

It was wended through *every part* of every moment of my early life, ive only in thecpast few years, had an injury to my throat that makes it impossible for me to even hum, can't carry nor hold a tune if you gave me a bucket; something I used to take for granted. My secret weapon if you will, I could get on any horse(rode professionnally for 20 years, since I was a child really) and only after my operation did I realize how much I relied on my voice to keep those worst animals attached to me..if you've nothing else to reach with, your voice is always there and best reach across the species divide, animals *always* understand..never failed me before and I can only say I was glad I'd left that career before I lost my ability to sing, it would gave truly broken me(not just my heart) to have gotten on a horse and been unable to bridge the divide...that was always truly magical to me.

[@charlesallen9350]

Hi Ross, your comments are more relevant than most people might think and such a life and lifestyle , may not be that far away. What I mean is this. I grew up in at the end of these times. What people are actually doing is providing their own food and fuel, directly, if you are a farmer, or indirectly if you are working on a farm. Back then it was a necessity to grow and save what you could, with no money for shop bought items etc, you depend upon yourself and your neighbours and they on you. We had then what is now known as good food security, recklessly so, that is not the case now. That’s what I mean by these ‘ idyllic’ scenes not being that far away now, if one has any interest in international politics, it’s easy to see what I mean. At the time I don’t remember saying to myself ooh what halcyon times we are in, please don’t let them end. Definitely not. It was hard physical work, which I did enjoy and took pleasure from and still do. Arcadia , no money was always tight, interest rates high, the difference between then and now, simply we or at least I, did not know any different, no social media etc , to either inform, or worse, make us feel inadequate.. The most noticeable thing I would say that has slipped through our fingers, is respect for our farmland, then , it was rightly regarded as a resource, now merely a trade able commodity, with disastrous environmental damage.

Amazing Europeans. But look at those Irish go. I remember in POrtugal, they would sing along in homes re: religion and families. And playing cards was the pass time as well. The wagon making...WOW, brings back memories. 1:15:30. So peaceful.

[@voraciousreader3341]

You obviously never lived and worked on a non-mechanized farm. This really glorifies the endless, hard work with very early mornings with chores to do after supper in the evening….if you had a cow or two, that meant scalding every piece of every implement twice per day, separating it, making butter or cream, and scalding stuff again when you were finished. People on farms in Ireland didn’t start having indoor plumbing until the late 1970s, so women had to haul buckets of water for _everything,_ and they also washed _everybody’s_ clothes without a washer or dryer! Women also had to make much of the clothing and furnishings the family needed. There were no refrigerators, so this doesn’t show how they kept perishables cold, nor how they cut and stored ice for the summer months, or if they bought it, or what. There was no such thing as even half a day off, or weekends, or sick days, or holidays, and if you relied on market days for weekly cash, that meant a hell of a long night after being in town all day or afternoon selling your goods and/or livestock. And you had to get up to milk cows at no later than 5AM, regardless of when you went to bed. My folks farmed non-mechanized in the US until 1950, as did several generations before them, so I know what I’m talking about!

[@voraciousreader3341]

@Jacob Taylor - You have _NO IDEA_ what you’re talking about, nor how hard farm work was when it was completely non-mechanized, so naturally you’ve got a romanticized view of what it was like. The work literally never ended, from 4AM when the cows needed to be milked until evening when they needed to be milked again. Everything touching the milk once it got out of the cow had to be scalded….the pails, the separators, the containers the milk went into, _everything,_ piece by piece, twice per day, _every single day;_ you never got a 1/2 day off, bc the cows udders would fill with milk and cause them incredible pain. So, no sick days, no vacation days, no weekends, no holidays….how would you like that??? Every farmer had at least one cow, too, bc there weren’t grocery stores to buy it. Horses pulled all the farm implements, as you see here, but plowing was physically every bit as hard on the farmer. If anything broke, the farmer had to fix it somehow, bc there was never time to drop everything….once spring plowing began, it was a flat out race to the end of harvest, and if there wasn’t a thresher going around to thresh everybody’s grain for shares, it had to be done with a flail on a bare wooden floor once the hay and harvest was in. Fences had to be constantly repaired where several generations of my family farmed unmechanized up until 1950, when my father decided he’d had enough. Of course, he had taken a detour to the Pacific Theater of WWII after enlisting in the Marines as soon as he graduated from high school in 1942. My parents sold their small dairy farm and moved to the city where my dad very happily went to work in the morning, and was done in the evening. Both my parents loved having their evenings, weekends, and holidays together, after all the hard, endless work on their farm. So, again, you have no idea, just NONE!!!

Excellent, inspiring, salt of the earth people. These beautiful Irish people of faith, who worked hard all their lives, doing what is necessary and important, including generosity towards the homeless gypsies in their community. Even their partying, gift of the gab, singing rebel songs to never forget the past oppression, music making, dancing, joking--support of neighbors together. This was real living. These bygone days is a lesson for us who think we have it hard... No. We have become lazy and ungrateful. Time to raise our moral and work ethics.

[@sheilasullivan1950]

Gypysies weren't homeless. They travelled the country in the caravans. Fixing pots n pans, doing roadwork until the county councils took that over and banned them. A few knew well, folk all emptied out of the house for sunday mass for a couple of hours and would steal. Gave themselves a bad name, but the church was the biggest hater of them. They would return to their real houses for the winter. Hence we called them travellers. Always on the move. Originally family O'Neill. Disposessed of land and animals by the crooked english and irish in government in cahoots.
