Dave Gallagher History

New (but not young!) Masters student in Irish Regional History at Carlow College, St. Patrick’s, 2022. Based in South Kilkenny. How much more can I fit in here?

[Dave Gallagher History @DaveHistoryCC]

My interests are early 20th century, modern Ireland (politics) and Northern Ireland as well as Norman and Gaelic castles;

So I’ll probably end up doing my thesis on something like Cholera or TB in the 1830’s or something similar!

#Otd 2000: The censor lifts a ban on more than 2/3s, or 400, of prohibited books following an appeal by the Labour Party.

Only 187 books & about 270 magazines & newspapers now remain on the banned list. (@Stairnahireann). 📷& article in link: @DIB_RIA. https://t.co/3LaJynFF0C

Also this short film made 40 odd years ago was recommended to me by @Mary_Ann_V and is so worth a watch https://t.co/TQrhxFT0rI

The parallels between the Newfoundland accent and South Kilkenny/South Tipperary/Waterford accent will never cease to amaze me… From ‘yes by’ to ‘yesss baiii’. We love it. Like why do imagine this man lives in a thatched cottage in Carrigeen?! https://t.co/5cIeTNNn0N

@GMcgin To be fair, I have read most of them at least once! 😉

@glabsandra I couldn't see Dr. McCarty in the replies, so here's a screenshot from Valentine's Day last year.

‘An affable member of staff’ is in fact Lady Hale, the first woman to have ever been appointed the President of the Supreme Court…Ladies, I would love to hear your stories of (inevitably) men assuming you’re far less senior than you really are…

The small city of Lugo in northern Spain has a special secret.

It is the *only* place in the world to have a complete set of intact Roman walls. They were built 2,000 years ago and surround the entire old town.

But how did they survive? That's where it gets interesting...
