And one more thing for the Maurice Macartney thread. Maurice made The Spirit Cellarman film, looks at clans, clearances and commoners on the Isle of Skye, by way of a family connection. It's a fascinating story.

Thank you Andrew

Absolutely this

Ah, Jonny, thank you.

It means a lot to hear that, Ian. Thank you for these encouraging words.

Thanks so much for this, and for sharing. Also for mentioning Christine Kinealy’s work. We are huge fans of hers, Frank Costello and others who have shone a light on the Hunger in County Down and other areas that became disremembered from the wider famine story.

Thank you and the quote tweet is very much appreciated. 🙏

Thank you. That is a lovely and encouraging thing to hear.
