    Having lived in Rostrevor, Newry, Warrenpoint, Belfast, and Banbridge, I enjoyed this video a lot. Up Down as my granny would say every summer, especially in 91 and 94.

    After you've done the counties I'd love to see videos on the country towns and major cities and an overview of their main historical events and legends associated with the areas nearby. Great video and I love discovering more about places I thought I knew but after watching your videos realise that there so much more to learn!!!

    Dundee isnt the only Dun in Scotland, theres also the city of Dunfermline and the towns of Dunkeld, Dunbar, and Dunblane, Dum and Dun are used interchangeably e.g. Dumbarton and Dumfries

    The Russell's and Rowleys of County Down five miles south of Belfast. My grandmother had her 22 acres of farmland was taken by the British when she was 10 years old. She told me to get it back from them when I grew up. Maybe I can. I want to try. I definitely will try harder if Trump becomes President again. Right now I'm at a research stage to pinpoint where they actually were. My dad tried in 1955. My older brother tried in the 1980s. My turn.😊
