A very rare, two second video and sound clip of villagers in #Ireland dancing in the town Square sometime during the 1920s. This seems boring to modern generations, but the truth is that we've lost the smile that our forebears wore through thick and thin.

Denis Donahue singing "My Uncle Dan Mcann" on the 15th May 1929.
The smirk when he looks at the camera makes me smirk in return. You can tell he beams with character and confidence. How many young men today wear a shirt and tie whilst enjoying such innocent pleasures? #Ireland

Living with women...

They paid a price for each of us,
Of harship, frost, and war.
So dear was the toll they paid,
Their like are seen no more.

This is #Thaxted Guildhall, a 15th Century Listed building built six hundred years ago. (Town St, Thaxted, #Dunmow, #Essex, #CM6) It stares at a beautiful town that, in turn, stares back at it. Nearly all of #England/#Britain could carry such charm if only we preserved it better.
