Thanks again to Glasgow and West of Scotland FHS (www.gwsfhs.org.uk) for its warm reception last night, at my second Irish themed talk this year to the society. I gave a short talk about the history of an Irish farm within my wife's ancestry, followed by a forty minute Q&A section, with some very diverse enquriies on both Scottish and Irish family history themed issues.
The venue was at Kelvinside Academy, and bizarrely when I turned up last night the exterior had been dressed by a BBC film production, which was also filming there. Fortunately, I only have a face for radio, so there was no big Hollywood discovery moment!!!
