Maurice MacAleese introduces us to the travelling cobblers, thatchers, 'Gentlemen of the Road' and the story of a donkey who immigrated all the way to the USA with his very own cart! The motor car and train opened up the country roads and distances which would once have taken days by foot or horse and cart could be travelled in a matter of hours. But the faster pace of life and gradual drift to the cities meant that people no longer had the same time to follow the old-time traditions and past-times such as the horse fairs, village green games and hiring fairs died out. So journey back through the fields and re-visit your memories of rural life.
