This is incredibly heartwarming. A young man calls his sister over (in English) to come and see a young donkey. His accent is truly nostalgic. I can't help but wonder where they might have wound up? "Isn't he lovely, he's only two days old".. #Ireland, 1929

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

Of harship, frost, and war.
So dear was the toll they paid,

This is absolutely first class! This antique desk sits in the bedroom of 'Andrew Carnegie' in his Birthplace Museum. (Moodie St, #Dunfermline, #Scotland, #KY12) As soon as I saw it, my eyes lit up. Pure, unadulterated class. 🪶

Sometimes, footage from the 80s cuts deeper than that of the 1800s as we see just how fast the world has left us behind. This is #Walthamstow market in the 80s, where my beautiful grandmother shopped & brought me through the 90s. The emotions I feel watching…

This one will be incredibly nostalgic for many from east #London, #Essex, etc. A drive-through #MileEnd towards #Whitechapel in the 90s. Once again, this one's a little too close to home for comfort as it brings about known memories and memories I'd no idea I'd been harbouring.
