Peggy McNamara, Rhebogue, Limerick
Peggy (then aged 26) was pregnant with her first child when President Kennedy visited in June 1963. She recalls the long walk to the race course, crowds, and the euphoria that was around Limerick now just that day but for weeks afterward, as a result of the visit. Peggy also remembers exactly where she was when she heard that President Kennedy was shot months later. It had an emotional impact on her, and on her family. A picture of President Kennedy was on her mother's mantle above the fireplace.

Maxine Jones - Now We are 60
Suddenly Maxine is 60. Young people apologise if they swear in front of her. Time’s going so quickly it seems like bin day every day. But a whole new world awaits.
Maxine has taken four solo shows to the Edinburgh Festival, been a guest on BBC Woman’s Hour and performed in RTE Comedy Showcase and the BBC New Comedy Awards.
Her material is honest and refreshing, on rearing three Irish sons and on turning 60. Now We Are 60 played to full rooms in Edinburgh and has sold out Irish theatres.

Gartan Mother's Lullaby
This is my version on my Celtic harp of the beautiful melody, Gartan Mother's Lullaby is an old Irish song and poem written by Herbert Hughes and Seosamh Mac Cathmhaoil, first published in 1904. The song is a lullaby by a mother, from the parish of Gartan in County Donegal, to her child. The song refers to a number of figures in Irish mythology, places in Ireland and words in the Irish language.
Sleep, O babe, for the red-bee hums
The silent twilight's fall:
Aibheall from the Grey Rock comes
To wrap the world in thrall.
A leanbhan O, my child, my joy,
My love and heart's-desire,
The crickets sing you lullaby
Beside the dying fire.
Dusk is drawn, and the Green Man's Thorn
Is wreathed in rings of fog:
Siabhra sails his boat till morn
Upon the Starry Bog.
A leanbhan O, the pale half moon
Hath brimmed her cusp in dew,
And weeps to hear the sad sleep-tune
I sing, O love, to you.

Hey YouTube, Jim here! Welcome to Top10Archive! Celtic tribes span many lands - primarily Wales, Ireland, and Scotland – and though the beliefs may have altered slightly from one region to the next, they all looked up to a group of supreme deities. We’ve taken the liberty of hand-picking the most notable of these beings, ten gods and goddesses of Celtic mythology.
