The ma's power is still out. She's cooked everything from the freezer in the back garden, charged her phone in the church (priorities). The bank windows have blown in - no money has blown out yet, but she's ready with pillowcase &a borrowed dyson just in case. She's thriving x

I won't make it this year to Lá Fhéile Bríde, or make the entrance with Cleanmairí Cluain Dolcaín but there in spirit & might - gentle reminder, for those that practice it - to leave out the cloth for her x

Myself &Nora Corcoran exploring traditional Traveller Herbalism& Healing at the O’Donoghue Centre in University of Galway. Attendees learned about foraging, gathering & healthy custodianship of the land. We got creative with traditional dyes & cording. I had a hoot of a time!

If your local and about - we'd love to see you at it!

'The beauty I can see' - Nan Joyce, 1992

Picked up this Tomás Ó Cathasaigh book yesterday - a telling of Irish Traveller Tales recounted orally by Tomás, edited by An Craoibhín Aoibhinn (Douglas Hyde / who went on to be President of Ireland). “A tinker was Thummaus, and his clan before him..." - Hyde 🥰

Headstones are very complex spaces: "Erected to the memory of Travellers from Tuam who lie in unmarked graves in this cemetery and throughout the country and overseas" Touching on deep threads, flows of raw emotion, connection & dedication to those that journey ahead of us x

Traveller Art event on May 1st at the Hugh Lane Gallery, Dublin! Don't forget to also visit 'Bafushia', which I was honoured to support in Sligo last year — sparked by Seamus Nolan & given flame by amazing Traveller artists! A celebration of Traveller art and creativity 🥰

A Minceirs materia medica - oh the sheer notions! But so delightedly so! xx

Beyond blessed to have launched the Rebel County Traveller Archive today - a beautiful gathering of photos, films, documents, and audio recordings, spread across 15 different collections. rebelcountytravellerarchive.ie Also I got to wear a VR headset & explore places and its people!

Memories! Still one of the best finds I've ever come across! 'Rathloir' and she still runs like water. The band snapped, before the photo - I've only marginally gotten better as a spinner - but its the trying that matters... or so I tell myself x
