    I am from Dublin and long time follower of yours. The two videos so far are the best most sincere videos I have seen by foreigners visiting Dublin. You are really capturing the real Dublin and real Dubs. When yoiu are in a pub ask dem “Wheres the Bog?” Theres some good slang for you:)
    Thanks Ace!

      It's so nice to see. I'm not from Dublin myself, my dad's side of the family are. But I'm so sick of everyone talking shite about Dublin. It's a capital city, there's always going to be problems, but there's so many good people there, good food, good pubs and it's just not as bad as everyone is letting on. (I'm slightly pissed off at those Trinner students saying culchies are hillbillies though... They can feck off 🤣)

    You should travel south to County Wicklow. The Garden of Ireland is also what it is called. I would travel to Powerscourt Estate and bring your camera. The scenery along the driveway is beautiful. You can see across to the Big Sugarloaf mountain. After Powerscourt I would travel on to the ancient monastic village of Saint Kevin, Glendalough ... a very spiritual place. Very special place. You will know that when you visit.

    Saying "wee man" is not something you hear. That is more a Northern Ireland phrase. We say "your man" or if it's a woman we say "your one" - used when referring to someone you are talking about in a conversation. Check out our national sport called Hurling. It's the fastest game on grass, played for about 3,000 years now. It's brilliant.

    The Book of Kells was written around 800 AD in medieval Ireland:
    Location: The exact place of origin is unknown, but it was likely created in a monastery on the Scottish island of Iona or in Kells, County Meath, Ireland.
    Creators: It was created by three artists and four scribes.
    Time to complete: It took about 75 years to complete.
    The Book of Kells is an illuminated manuscript that contains the four Gospels written in Latin by the Columban monks. It's considered one of the greatest masterpieces of Celtic art and a textbook example of insular illumination.

    As an Aussie,not Irish, I am surprised that young lady talking about the university, as knowledgeable as she was, didn't know where Leprechauns came from, or the legendary "Pot of Gold" !!
    Leprechauns,as far as I understand, are a central part of IRISH (not American) folklore.
    As for the pot of gold, at the end of the rainbow it's like a kind of fairytale / proverb/ expression
    I have read a couple of versions, but basically it comes from when the Vikings invaded Ireland. They buried stolen gold in pots in the ground. Once the Vikings left, the Leprechauns reburied the gold in a different place. The only way to know where the pot of gold is when a rainbow appears. At the end of the rainbow apparently lies the pot of gold.
    Something like that.

      Well you see irish people have a different relationship to our folklore its all around us but its not spoken about,the good folk are to be respected and feared.The leprechaun is a very whimsical character comical character it makes us uncomfortable.Yes the leprechaun is based on irish folklore but i still think its very americanised.The film Darby O' Gill and the little people which was a hollywood film and most people would think it was leprechauns,but it as actuallly more in keeping with the irish perseption of fairies and infact though they had leprechaun characteristics they were more trooping fairies whereas leprechauns are said to be loners.It does make sense about the pot of gold coming from viking influence because the native irish economy was based on lifestock and wealth was measured in cattle not money it was the vikings who introduced money..
      That girl sounds alot better than she actually was what she was saying about the name changing was very confused she mixed up two different historical characters that lived decades apart.

    You should go to an IPAS centre and to an immigration protest to understand the fact that Irish people are not racist but they also want to protect their heritage and culture and protect their indigenous land. They will treat you with absolute respect and show you that their protests aren't racially motivated it would be very interesting to see your point of view

    • @OldWolflad
      @OldWolflad День назад

      That's exactly what the English felt like in the 1970s I can assure you -to protect the heritage. These days you have to pretend to wrap it up in something cultural to avoid being called racists - but it amounts to the exact same thing and generates the exact same feelings within local populations

    Hi, the two breakfast items you asked about were black pudding and white pudding- they are delicious!!! If you travel down the country to Co.Kerry, one of the best makers of these puddings is Ashe butchers/pork products in Anascaul, and they are available in most supermarkets and many local cafes too. Clonakilty puddings in Cork are also super tasty. Travel outside 'The Pale' (slang for Dublin area) and check out the different slang words in other counties. 'Tis cat out' is used here in Kerry to mean it's raining heavily. If something or someone is 'banjaxed' it is broken or something is wrong physically with them. Good luck on your travels here in our Emerald Isle and if I see you in Kerry I'll be sure to say hello and give you more tips/slang. 😃👍 T

Black pudding is one of the best sources of iron, coz it's made with, eh, pigs blood ie: not the same as blood sausage.
