once upon a time

ai manipulated via gimp

1970's a troubled time to say the least for British and Irish people. My passion as a child at this time was Irish dancing.. I had a mixed heritage both of Irish and English/ catholic and Protestant.

It broke my heart when one day the teachers of the dance troop came to my home and said that as I was not actually a Catholic they could not longer allow me to dance with the troop.

living tucked up safe in Oxfordshire I as a child found it hard to understand but what it do; as i grew was to study contemporary history so that as an adult at least I could fully understand some of the things that happened during this period- for both sides. - I am neither Catholic or Prodestant - my spiritual journey took me to more nature and nature bound beliefs.

-

sadly I never danced again.
