The Way I Remember It - Traditional Irish Life

[@evaseal4043]

I watched every crumb of this on my little phone, like peeping through a keyhole back into the past. Those of us with farming history in our family see the ways they brought with them to here. They are with us. Thanks for the documentary.

Wow, what a work of art. Poetry, song, instructiveness, culture, whimsy & religion. So Blessed. Thank you.

[@debbiedellinger1664]

I am from Indiana and enjoyed thoroughly. Best vacation I ever took was to Ireland back in 1987. I stayed with a lovely family that lived in County Wexford. I have such fond memories and photos of that trip.

[@GuruRasaVonWerder]

What beautiful poetry that goes with every scene. God is here.

It was a hard life but a good one for the soul.❤

Sixty years ago, my father there in the bog of moher . Thin he was, like this man here, no fat to spare, and the jet planes then , a new thing in the sky, taking off from Shannon. We could see the river when the sun was just right. And two years later I was in one of them jets, to leave my home forever.

I absolutely love watching this! It's sad because this wild goose will probably never make it to see this beautiful island. Thank you! ☘️

[@jakmak1199]

Well I hope you do sometime, never say never 😉

[@nervesinapattern7261]

Thanks for uploading this. Since I immigrated to Canada it’s great to have access to so many great Irish documentaries, you’re doing gods work by archiving and uploading them.

[@GuruRasaVonWerder]

And quite descriptive as well, beautiful work, wonderful movie.

[@MsKTOBoyle]

My heritage comes to live now. That was also a rural heritage for a bit. Born in a small village on the Zeeland Region in the Netherlands!!

[@mikekavanagh8952]

14:03 "..that rapacious robot of a a road tanker.."

[@cycleSCUBA]

Wonderful heritage, traditional farming and stewardship, and such a poetic storyline in the Gaelic and English.

[@michaelgallagher4173]

I am humbled and sad, looking at my own parents, and the times I a child cut the corn. I miss o Gra mocri . no I could never go home working forever and ending up N a bog near My Home at home, but somewhere else

[@mickosullivan3827]

Love the Kingdom ❤

[@martinwalsh3228]

The year of the programme was from the 1970's on RTE of course try and upload 1970's Irish adverts from the website Irish Film Archives of course.

[@johnogrady2418]

And instead of the American flag flying and the National Anthem we heard The Angelus at 6 in the evening and they were off the air by around 11 pm. I think they played the Irish Anthem to close out the night.

[@jamesbradshaw3389]

Some say the good old days, later in life, we all say the good old, The good old days are when we were younger, when all or most of our family friends and relations were around When we were handsome and pretty When we were fit and stronger. When there are no wars, no conflict, no hunger or drought, when we have finished and finally escaped from school, college or Univesity, yes those were/are the good old days. For some now will become the good old days later in their life

[@James-kd7dc]

18:20 How did they know?! 😂

[@SC-bg8wf]

I remember my uncle cutting turf. But now we know it's really bad for global warming and for the unique wildlife habitat that gets destroyed.

[@Angel-dx6cn]

1:46 was that phrasing really necessary? 😂

[@denyseharrington889]

Well I remember

[@joancollins522]

Such a lovely video.....I can relate to it all from my youth....as regards people complaining about people from different European countries????.......sorry but 28 countries in Europe are all one people now.....open borders....

[@dyttrich]

When this video made?

[@burntbacon7995]

Early to mid 1970s.

[@EricMcCurrySharonGodwinSlayer]

Now Ireland is filled with non Irish. Sad.

[@liambrennan5374]

I wouldn’t say it’s sad now, I think it’s sad how irish people today, my generation like are trying to go as far away from this as possible, I’d not blame immigrants for it you’ll find most people have a very similar heritage sure we’re all brothers and sisters at the end of the day. As the narrator says about rye bread “ Sure the worlds gone mad”, i think he’s spot on

[@burntbacon7995]

To be a minority in the next 20 years.

[@Lee-nh5bb]

Yep, it's all about population increase, throwing many cultures and religions together in crowded cities, without any consultation of the locals, and expecting everybody to completely accept these massive social changes overnight, with absolutely no complaints.

[@tcob1556]

Ireland has a majority of “White Irish,” as 94.1% of the population.

[@noelfleming3567]

For how long 😂
