This is a brilliant shop. I go there every weekday on my way home. They sell everything and their prices are cheaper than Supermarkets in Sligo on same branded items. Shop is always busy. Very friendly staff. Great video!! Thanks.

Sarah: my name is Michael Clarke. My dad is James - he immigrated to the US in the 1950s, met a beautiful Donegal lass there, married her and had me and my two brothers. Me dad is 90 now, still in good health and mind, thank God. He is from Dromard, next to the old schoolhouse at the crossroads past the church. Anyway, I am a reluctant yank, blessed with the gift of spending my youth summers with my uncles John and Felix and grandfather Michael in Beltra. I know Nigel, and Nessa. I knew your grandfather. I love this video. Brilliantly, so well done. You are gifted, and you come from a fantastic family. I wish you the best, and am certain greatness is yours, just seeing this documentary and knowing from where you came!!! Love to the family: you have no idea how much I look forward to seeing them, again. Peace! M

Lovely video and really lovely people. So nice to have met them on our travels and to have shared a moment in time. The warmth and hospitality of the Irish is all here. X
