TBH, I had to check where #Kildare is located.
To my shame, and even though I've read "#Dublin*," I didn't know.

500 lay dead in a #Kildare field.
That was the Battle of Kilrush, fought on the road between #Athy and #Dublin 382 years ago #OnThisDay.
The casualties that day were one small fraction of the destruction which resulted in the deaths of some 1/7th of #Ireland's population in a war which spanned more than a decade

Taken from the folklore.ie account on FB, I love this gentleman's reply when asked how he is, which was apparently overheard in County Kildare, Ireland.
I'm happy to be still throwing a shadow in this crazy, crazy world!
Oh look, more arson attacks on buildings which have just recently been targeted online by far-right racist instigators. How ever has this come to pass? Another mystery for Gardaí to fail to investigate.

A happy #StBrigidsDay / #Imbolc to all
This year, #OnThisDay, we mark the 1,500th anniversary of the passing of Brigid of #Kildare in 524. There is much debate over exactly who Brigid was, was she simply a Christian saint who established one of the most important ecclesiastical sites in #Ireland or was she a fictional overlay for a Celtic goddess of the same name?
We explore some of these ideas in the link below
