    There is a series called "Hands" which is lots of footage such as this based on Irish country life.All filmed during the early 70's and it encompasses crafts such as the Linen makers and basket weavers. Love educational stuff like this.This is the Ireland I hold dear.

    What an incredible archive! Fantastic documentary production, and all in colour!! Ah, and wouldn't the man with the film crew bring out the sunday best ? Largely though the people demonstrate remarkable ease with the camera, and the banter is great, did they know the film maker? Absolutely priceless and a real joy to see. Thank you so very much for uploading this treasure.

    indeed, it was tradition that men and women wore their old sunday close for work, it often included the tie. the big change took place in Ireland after they joined the European Common Market (EU).At the time it was supportive for small farmers, but unfortunately soon became a club for the suit-case investor psydo farmers, as it is today. This film coverage is a time witness.

    That is what I have also always noticed, I have a brother who for the past 38 years has worked with the poorest of the poor in Africa and he said that on Sundays and other important days the people would arrive wearing their finest of clean clothing, it was/is very important to those people to show respect for what they were/ are attending and to look their very best even when they have very little and are often suffering from hunger or ill health, people are the same this who world over, Yes we are all God's children.

    But can you solve this in less than ten minutes .....? A miller ground out 336 pound of wheat into flour . Enough to fill 128 bags ; some were 2 (Ib) and others were 7 (Ib) bags of Flour. How many 2 (Ib) bags and 7 (Ib) bags of Flour were filled ? If a 2 (Ib) bag is sold for £2 each and a 7 (Ib) is £6 each; how much were all 128 bags sold for ? If only 25% of the total selling price of the Flour was profit ( after expenses ), how much profit did the Miller have for the 336 (Ib) of Flour sold that day ? Regards.......Abe

    What a load of garbage. As the man stated, it was a service to the farmers. to keep the Fox from KILLING THE SHEEP AND LAMBS! But You do holders don’t think that it’s cruel for a lamb or sheep to be fond in the paddock with its leg ripped from its body. I bet you sit at the dinner table with a lamb chop for your dinner.Why don’t you take it outside and give it to the Fox that just had chicken for dinner. G-d bless Ireland and the Farmer struggling to make a living while saps like you know everything.

    My parents would have seen this as a sad joke. Along with many others both emigrated as there was no living for them in "tradition rich Ireland" and they had to earn abroad to send money home. The Church ran the country and all there was for the young was to leave. Went back for a holiday back in the 70's and my Mum and 4 kids took the plane to Dublin. It was full of priests and nuns who basically looked down there noses at us. In Ireland, America and Australia the Catholic clergy are being exposed as the bastards they truly were, decades too late. Reckon the Americans see the place as a some sort of "Quiet Man" based theme park.

    Tom Roland being American I can only speak for myself. I have a curiosity of where my family is from. I had a short visit two years ago and had never felt the peace I felt before or since. I got to talk with some folks that are like me and understand why I am the way that I am. Most people these days don’t know The Quite Man. I kind of wish they did.

    Absolutely, a time when the generally awful Clergy ruled everyone and had huge power and influence in Government too. If the Parish Priest wouldn't recommend you, you'd never get a job in the Civil Service. A time when what a family put into the church collection envelope was read out at Sunday Mass deliberately by the Parish Priest to shame the poorest who hadn't 'tried hard enough'.....These lovely films show a side of Ireland that doesn't match the hardship and reality of the time, when children walked miles with buckets for water for their house, many houses had no electricity and had just two small rooms for everyone to live in, I know, we farmed then and that was in the sixties! I went to National School with neighbours children who's rented cottage had earth floors and Tilley lamps, I love watching these films for the farming skills that I used as a young boy and man growing up in Wicklow, but I know they are not accurate portrayals of what life was really like....

    Best leave the old days where they belong; in the past when you were there it was good because you knew no better, The people who present this stuff have a serious disconnect with reality, Good for the yanks etc , when one travels in America Australia etc ,you get asked was it really like that, nonsense on the average farm in the midlands a man walked behind his horse team all day , came in in the evening fed his horses likely milked some cows did the foddering generally helped by his wife and family when the were old enough to help , if not doin that.they were cutting hedges by hand After supper they went to bed in cold damp houses no indoor toilets hot water It’s funny how all these nostalgic presentation forgot the real facts or the people commenting who were never there see it as times of great fun sorry not from where I’m looking, but I do agree it is a good presentation thank you
