"Two Day's In The Year You Can't Do Nothing About: Yesterday And Tomorrow." A Cork Grave Digger And Poet.

I don't want to appear maudlin ( English  north country slang)  but I found the following vignette of a video on good old YouTube.  

It's incredibly well done, beautifully filmed and I think you will like all the man's heart felt words and the music:

 

I hope a book publisher asks this lovely man to write a book for him.  I would love to read it wouldn't you? 

 Or perhaps a television programme meeting every day people like you or me?  We all have a story to tell.
