    Cometh the Hour Cometh the Man. Collins was the right Man at the right time just like Churchill was for the British in 1939 and Field Marshall Zhukov was for the Russians. Collins Intelligence Network in Dublin Castle was the thing that gave him the edge and finally led to the Treaty. You can say he never pulled a Trigger himself as the Diehard Cathal Brugha accused him off in Dail but he didn't need to as his skill was in ordering the striking of the right Targets that would make the greatest impact in Downing Street.

    It wasn't Collins who sent Ireland in the wrong direction, it was De Valera. Had he stood with Collins, there would have been no civil war, a united country and people, and the opportunity to set the scene for reunification. Dev destroyed all hope of that, and poisoned Irish politics for generations.

    I wish Irish dancing would go back to this!! So traditional! This is coming from someone that has done Irish dance for 15 years, and whose daughter was an Open champ. I just think that today’s Irish dance has strayed from what it started as. The dresses with the Book of Kells…..rather than the blinged out $4K dresses (which Ive bought quite a few of). Maybe Im just nostalgic. The steps that these ladies are doing and the talent is equal to the modern day dancers….honestly even better. It’s pure Irish. ☘️

    Keep it Natural, nothing worse than nice young girls wearing wigs, people come to see them Dance not to look at their Hair. These kids train like they were getting ready for the Olympic Games, they also make a lot of sacrifices & work hard with no help from anyone, not too mention the injuries. I often wondered who is making the profits from all this, lm not speaking about Michael Flatley his shows were Brilliant, it should have been someone in Eire doing this, it did highlight the Irish Dance & gave a lot of our Dancers a chance to make some financial gain. Appreciate your natural Heritage, be proud of who and what you are, also the joy your Dancing has brought to the World☘️ 🇮🇪☘️🇱🇷🇮🇪☘️🇱🇷🇮🇪☘️🇱🇷☘️🇮🇪🇱🇷☘️🇮🇪☘️☘️

      Some of the more modern costumes, wigs, tans, sock glue and fake eyelashes would be more suited to Tiaras and Tantrums showing kids in pageants. Absolutely horrible. The only thing is that a lot of the girls do genuinely enjoy the dancing aspect. It's a shame it's been allowed to become so fake and unnatural.
