Amazing. Ive known about this since i was a kid, but never saw the footage until now. Beautiful shots of the day they drove across Lough Owel, Mullingar in Ireland. I remember when the driver of the beetle died, about 15 years ago. He was in his eighties. Crazy to see all these dead people playing around like kids. Very moving.

Nice. These kind of films are fun to watch when we get older, especially if they are from our childhood places.



Btw, Are you Irish folks violent people or why does every second town name start with kil-prefix?

Kil or kill is the Anglicised version of the irish 'Coill' which means wood or forest.
