Title A name given to the resource Cork 2005 Project Subject The topic of the resource Interviewing and radio project exploring migration, cultural contact and the social and physical landscape of Cork City in 2004 and 2005 and in the past, comprising of forty audio interviews and resulting in six half-hour radio programmes and a book. Description An account of the resource The Cork 2005 Project was carried out and funded as part of Cork’s tenure as European Capital of Culture in 2005. Building on the theme ‘City of Culture’, the project explored the questions: ‘What is the everyday culture of Cork City?’ and ‘Who are the people of the city?’, and aimed to broaden our archival holdings to reflect the increased numbers of migrants making their home in the city. 37 ethnographic interviews were carried out with Cork residents, more than two-thirds of whom had come to Cork from elsewhere, exploring their relationship with the cultural and social landscape of the city. The interviews include accounts of family life and growing up in Argentina, Australia, Bangladesh, Canada, China, England, Germany, India, Iraq, Israel, Kurdistan, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Poland, Slovakia, South Africa Ukraine, and the United States. A six-part radio series, entitled ‘How’s it goin’, boy?’ was broadcast on Cork Campus Radio in 2005, and a book of the same name was published in 2006. You can listen to the radio programmes on our website: How's it goin', boy? Radio Series. The interviews in this collection all have a similar structure. We asked all interviewees to describe their childhood neighbourhoods and communities and to discuss their relationship with Cork city in the present day. We also discussed experiences of migrancy, first impressions and cultural contact with those who had come to Cork from elsewhere and with Corkonians who had experience of migration. Interviewees came from diverse areas including Australia, the Marsh, Nigeria, Brittany, Gurranabraher, Russia, Evergreen Street, Spain, Poland and Kurdish Iraq. The collection project was carried out from March 2004 – June 2005.

If you wish to access further archival material please contact CFP, folklorearchive@gmail.com J.M: OK, so could you tell me Marcus in what ways do Argentinean people differ from Irish people? M.B: OK Argentinean people are quite aggressive, em we say things when we, you know, that’s one big difference as well here when I came, everybody was polite, thank you was the word, and sorry it’s like, and you’d constantly hear people saying sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, apologising many, many, many, many times, and the same with thank you, and politeness in general; in Argentina, it’s not that we are not polite we are but, it’s not so kind of constant, you know if we don’t like something, we are going to say it really, really say it loud, and you’ve got to be prepared for it, I suppose we are very direct. Argentinean people have a reputation for being very arrogant, you know I suppose because Argentina as such is a country that from the whole lot of countries in Europe has the biggest influence of European culture in it, so they feel that they are a cousin of Europe which makes them at a higher level than the rest, or at least that’s a feeling in if you want to put it into words, I don’t know an idea of mine [I don’t think these people actually think this just like that] but I mean still the arrogance that is so characteristic is there. That’s something about Argentinean people, we are very open and extrovert I suppose Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Marcus Bale: Argentina, Alcohol, Buenos Aires, Culture, Folklore, Hanukah, Irish Literature, Jews, Passover, Dance, Drink Culture. Subject The topic of the resource Life History: Cork Description An account of the resource Marcus describes his childhood in Belgrano, Buenos Aires, Argentina and his subsequent move to Ireland. Subjects covered include Marcus’s Jewish upbringing, how he came to live in Ireland, cultural differences between Argentina and Ireland, as well as to his involvement in acting. Marcus grew up in Belgrano, Buenos Aires, a densely populated area of Argentina. He came from an upper middle class Jewish family and had three sisters. His two grandmothers came from Lebanon and Syria. He lived in an urban area and as a child was more interested in indoor activity such as reading and playing board games. Where he lived children tended not to play in the street due to the dangers of urban traffic, smoke, and noise pollution. Marcus discusses how his family were more ‘“conservative’” Jewish, which he characterises as falling between Liberal and Orthodox Judaism. They met at his grandfather’s house for Jewish New Year, Passover and Hanukah. Marcus came to Ireland due to his interest in early Irish literature, Celtic stories, and Irish folklore. He met Dr Diarmuid ÓO Giolláin from the Department of Folklore and Ethnology, University College, Cork, in Argentina and came to study here on the encouragement from of lecturers of European medieval literature within the Classical Studies programme he attended in college. He highlights the difficulties of his first year in Ireland: the culture shock, the drinking culture, and not knowing anyone from his own country. He didn’t understand English as spoken by Irish people and he relates some humorous stories of misunderstandings. According to Marcus, the weather was a big challenge. Marcus was used to temperatures of over 40 degrees and it took two years before he got used to the rain. He talks at length about the differences in diet and meal times between Ireland and Argentina which reflect the different climates. Marcus also discusses how Argentineans are more direct than the polite Irish. Irish people repeatedly say ‘sorry’ which is not common in his country. Marcus talks about his involvement in Irish fringe theatre and being a member of the Snatch Comedy Group. He mentions how avant-garde Argentinean theatre styles are in comparison to the more traditional style in Ireland. He explains how the small South American community has grown: how they meet up regularly and about the growing popularity of South American dances such as tango and salsa.

I.S: Actually it’s all circumstances: I never meant to take a stall in the Market, except I met French people who had a stall there previously who were making cheese, and they wanted to, they had a big stall, now it was in 1991 no ‘92. In ‘92 the English Market wasn’t the way it is now – it was getting not kind of not a very good reputation in Cork, and you know like the stall had been let down a bit, there was loads of empty stalls, and nobody wanted them, and those French people came in there, and I was laughing at them, and I said is not like the market in France, you know, this market isn’t going to bring you anything, that was the time. And eh and they said you’ll see, you’ll see, you’ll see, you’ll see, you see this is going to change right. And I said right, ok and they brought me to share their stall and they were doing cheese at the time so I was going to do charcuterie which is a cooked meat, and pates, and cured meat, it’s usually based on pork meat, you know, so I said why not, and then I started importing those, and then I started making my own, and eh and then they left, but it was very, very hard at the beginning because there were very few people interested in the kind of product we were doing, and the condition of the market was actually was also difficult, you know. And then year by year it improved, and the other stall came in, and the other cheese stall came in, and then after a few years then we had the Café Centrale, and then I moved to a bigger stall, and that makes a big difference, and the market is now running so well, it is so bright there is a diversity of product, and still what makes it very special is the mixing of old and new Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Isabelle Sheridan: English Market, Food, Culture Subject The topic of the resource Life History Description An account of the resource Isabelle Sheridan is from a suburb outside Paris called Le Pleine de Mont Esson. She moved to Ireland in 1986 and eventually established the well-known charcuterie called ‘On the Pig’s Back’ in the English Market in Cork. She discusses her childhood in France, differences between France and Ireland, and some of the social nuances of running her market stall. Isabelle started ‘On the Pig’s Back’ artisan food company which began as a stall in The English Market in the early 1990s. Isabelle grew up in an apartment block in a village called La Plaine de Montesson, a suburb near Paris, where vegetables were grown and mushrooms were farmed underground. She has two younger sisters. Her father was an engineer and her mother was a painter. She remembers going to the opera and museums in Paris, as a treat, with her godmother. Isabelle is married with three children. Her husband is from Mayo. She states that there were fireworks everywhere on the 14th of July and in the area where Isabelle grew up they had a Village Day where local villages came together to host parades, barbecues, and have fireworks. They celebrated Saints Day, La Toussaint, around Halloween, which was a day of dedication for the dead when they went to the cemetery to visit family graves. At Christmas, they would all go to mass on the 24th, which was followed by a family meal at midnight. She made her communion twice. The boys and girls all wore the same rented white robes. Isabelle describes her love of food and cooking as a child. Her father taught her to identify cheese and cut it properly. She talks about the culture of French food and wine and how having dinner with others was a social occasion. Every house had a wine cellar. Her grandfather’s cellar held up to 800 bottles of wine. Isabelle came to Ireland as a purchaser in a new factory, initially for six months. Then, having met her husband, she stayed. Isabelle describes her wedding in Nantes and the differences in the civil ceremony experience as compared to Ireland. Isabelle offers a good description of the differences between French and Irish working practices. She highlights that French people commuting in and out of Paris would not have had the time, upon arriving home, for much else than cooking and eating dinner. In Ireland, she states there is enough time, upon arriving home, that you almost have a ‘second day’. Cork has a large French community which meets regularly mainly for children centred activity. Isabelle gives good detail on the development of The English Market, the types of traders and the food stalls available there and how she set up her own charcuterie stall. She began importing French food and eventually set up the well-known brand ‘On the Pig’s back’.

Title A name given to the resource Cork 2005 Project Subject The topic of the resource Interviewing and radio project exploring migration, cultural contact and the social and physical landscape of Cork City in 2004 and 2005 and in the past, comprising of forty audio interviews and resulting in six half-hour radio programmes and a book. Description An account of the resource The Cork 2005 Project was carried out and funded as part of Cork’s tenure as European Capital of Culture in 2005. Building on the theme ‘City of Culture’, the project explored the questions: ‘What is the everyday culture of Cork City?’ and ‘Who are the people of the city?’, and aimed to broaden our archival holdings to reflect the increased numbers of migrants making their home in the city. 37 ethnographic interviews were carried out with Cork residents, more than two-thirds of whom had come to Cork from elsewhere, exploring their relationship with the cultural and social landscape of the city. The interviews include accounts of family life and growing up in Argentina, Australia, Bangladesh, Canada, China, England, Germany, India, Iraq, Israel, Kurdistan, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Poland, Slovakia, South Africa Ukraine, and the United States. A six-part radio series, entitled ‘How’s it goin’, boy?’ was broadcast on Cork Campus Radio in 2005, and a book of the same name was published in 2006. You can listen to the radio programmes on our website: How's it goin', boy? Radio Series. The interviews in this collection all have a similar structure. We asked all interviewees to describe their childhood neighbourhoods and communities and to discuss their relationship with Cork city in the present day. We also discussed experiences of migrancy, first impressions and cultural contact with those who had come to Cork from elsewhere and with Corkonians who had experience of migration. Interviewees came from diverse areas including Australia, the Marsh, Nigeria, Brittany, Gurranabraher, Russia, Evergreen Street, Spain, Poland and Kurdish Iraq. The collection project was carried out from March 2004 – June 2005. Interviewers on the project: Jennifer Butler; Lee Cassidy; Sean Claffey; Diane Hoppe; Dolores Horgan; John Mehegan; Clíona O’Carroll; Mary O’Driscoll; Noel O’Shaughnessy: Frances Quirke.

If you wish to access further archival material please contact CFP, folklorearchive@gmail.com F.Q: Coming back to Cork, em had you any kind of funny things em happen when you arrived first, you know misunderstandings or? L.S.S: Em not, the only thing I remember was when I was in hospital having Charlotte my daughter in Finbarr’s, em the first time I was in hospital I was having a threatened miscarriage you know at twelve weeks, and I had to spend five, six days on a ward, and I do remember the whole religious thing hit me because nobody at that point you know when you go into a hospital the first thing they ask you after your name and address is your religion, and I kind of had a hard time getting my head around that, so I took a big deep breath and said I was Jewish, and the woman kind of looked at me strange. Then when I was on the ward I was in the middle bed of one side, so they were you know six bedded ward, and I was in the middle, and on Sunday morning they came and they curtained me off, and I thought what’s going on here, and you’d be scared back then because I was afraid that I was going to have a miscarriage, and em plus I was older than most people – I was thirty when I had my daughter so I was nervous, and they come in and they put all the curtains around me, and I say to the nurse what’s going on, and then they set up an altar at the end of the ward, and they obviously were going to serve Mass on a Sunday morning. And she said, and I said is there something wrong with me, is there a problem, is the doctor coming, is there something wrong; oh no she said, no, no, no, no, we’re just going to have Mass, and I said so why are you curtaining me off, oh we wouldn’t think it would be right for you to watch! And I remember thinking that was strange. And then the women on the ward, who were lovely, they were lovely women – we had such a good time together actually, except for the ones who were sad who might have had a miscarriage. But they were all passing around Holy Cards, and of course I thought this was hilarious, and they were passing me over, you know, would you like this one, or would you like this one, and sticking them into their bras and that kind of stuff you know; and I thought you know again that was very strange and funny. And then finally when I had Charlotte then, Thank God I didn’t have the miscarriage and I had her, but she was a very premature baby, and she was in the Special Care Unit in Finbarr’s em and a woman, so she wasn’t on the bed next to me, and a woman stopped me in the corridor one day, and I had her in August, and I was up on a farm before that so I was sitting out and I’m dark skinned anyway and I’d gone very tanned from the summer, so this woman stopped me on the ward, and she said oh you’re the one who had the miracle baby! And I said what do you mean the miracle baby? She was very premature, she was under four pounds, but she’s fine! And she said, no, no, no, you’re the black woman who had the white baby. (Laughs).

Title A name given to the resource Liz Steiner Scott: America, Customs, English market, Children's Games, Maternity, Religion, Subject The topic of the resource Life History: Cork: Ireland: America: Religion: Description An account of the resource Liz was born into an upper middle class, liberal, Jewish family in 1948 in a suburb of New Jersey, USA. She has one brother and one sister. Her maternal grandparents lived close and were part of their family life. Her father commuted daily to New York City for work. Her grandparents were all immigrants into the States. Liz went to Vassar College, then a private women’s college in New York state. She and her husband came to Ireland in the 1970’s. She played a range of childhood games in her neighbourhood particularly a game called ‘swamp fox’ which involved playing in sewerage overflow. There is a good story about her grandmother who was a ‘flapper’ and party girl in the twenties and how they were all into show music, especially George Gershwin and Cole Porter. Divorce was unusual and difficult in the 1930s. Her grandmother had to travel to Nevada to get a ‘quickie’ divorce. She was a character. As a family they didn’t keep kosher, but were aware as children that their tradition and heritage was Jewish. Their diet contained some Jewish food like brisket, pickled herrings and matzos. Discusses how her parents started a reformed Jewish (non-Orthodox???) synagogue in a space shared by the Presbyterian church. They went there for Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashana, Yom Kippur and Hanukkah. Ethnic grouping was very important and socialising happened within your group. Liz was the only family member who was interested in observing Jewish religious holidays. Originally Liz and her husband came to Dublin in 1974 through a university research fellowship. They came to Cork in 1977 when her husband got a job at Crawford Art Gallery she just says “the Crawford” so she could mean the school??. They loved Ireland and were happy to be outside of the US because of their anti Vietnam war views. Their first impressions of Cork were of how grim it was and that there were lots of derelict buildings. Merchant’s Quay, for example, was all boarded up. Liz gives a very humorous account of giving birth to her daughter Charlotte in St Finbarrs and how religious the hospital was. There were lots of holy pictures and crucifixes. How they closed off her bed with a curtain when mass was said in the ward. There is a lot of good description about The English market and her Saturday morning ritual of going there to shop. Liz discusses the dwindling of the Jewish community in Cork and the closure of the orthodox synagogue for Jewish New Year because there aren’t enough people to open it. How traditional the rules are that insist on women sitting up stairs. Liz discusses the role of women in the synagogue and the differences between the Cork Orthodox community and the more liberal experience of her childhood.

Title A name given to the resource Cork 2005 Project Subject The topic of the resource Interviewing and radio project exploring migration, cultural contact and the social and physical landscape of Cork City in 2004 and 2005 and in the past, comprising of forty audio interviews and resulting in six half-hour radio programmes and a book. Description An account of the resource The Cork 2005 Project was carried out and funded as part of Cork’s tenure as European Capital of Culture in 2005. Building on the theme ‘City of Culture’, the project explored the questions: ‘What is the everyday culture of Cork City?’ and ‘Who are the people of the city?’, and aimed to broaden our archival holdings to reflect the increased numbers of migrants making their home in the city. 37 ethnographic interviews were carried out with Cork residents, more than two-thirds of whom had come to Cork from elsewhere, exploring their relationship with the cultural and social landscape of the city. The interviews include accounts of family life and growing up in Argentina, Australia, Bangladesh, Canada, China, England, Germany, India, Iraq, Israel, Kurdistan, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Poland, Slovakia, South Africa Ukraine, and the United States. A six-part radio series, entitled ‘How’s it goin’, boy?’ was broadcast on Cork Campus Radio in 2005, and a book of the same name was published in 2006. You can listen to the radio programmes on our website: How's it goin', boy? Radio Series. The interviews in this collection all have a similar structure. We asked all interviewees to describe their childhood neighbourhoods and communities and to discuss their relationship with Cork city in the present day. We also discussed experiences of migrancy, first impressions and cultural contact with those who had come to Cork from elsewhere and with Corkonians who had experience of migration. Interviewees came from diverse areas including Australia, the Marsh, Nigeria, Brittany, Gurranabraher, Russia, Evergreen Street, Spain, Poland and Kurdish Iraq. The collection project was carried out from March 2004 – June 2005.

A.R: I remember working as a security officer, I had to, I was working near the airport in the Business Park, I was working in the gate, and there were cars arriving, and I was on the gate, and sometimes I had to tell the car to stop. And it would be more visual communication, because I was there in the booth, and I couldn’t speak with them, and I had to make a sign to stop, and the sign in Israel would be like putting your hand forward with your palm up and in front of the person and it would mean eh to stop but they did not understand this one and they just waved me hallo and the other way is to ask somebody what is the sign to make a sign to make it stop, and the other officer told me you take your index finger and putting it up and then it would mean just wait one moment, well like or the way people say hello here with the head it wouldn’t be like putting it up and down, it would be in Israel, if you meet somebody in the street and you don’t actually say hello just sign it with your head it would be like getting your head up and down while in here it would be like right and left kind of half way right and left, it took me time to understand this kind of thing as well, of course with language as well but I don’t the physical the visual . . .

Title A name given to the resource Avreimi Rot: Customs, Food, Israel, Religion, Subject The topic of the resource Life History: Cork; Ireland: Israel Description An account of the resource Avreimi grew up in Jerusalem, Israel in a strict orthodox community until he was 14 when he moved to a less religious neighbourhood. He came to Ireland when he was 21. His father became ill with multiple sclerosis when Avreimi was a child. From a young child his day was spent going to school, studying the bible and religious scripts. It was just his education and he enjoyed it. Avreimi relates how his family came out of the orthodox way of life. They had to live almost under cover for years. There were sections of Jerusalem that are strictly religious and defined by clothes and certain behaviours on Sabat. He describes the food and the symbolic meaning of food they ate on Religious festivals like Jewish New Year and Passover. Avreimi came to Ireland after doing national service. He did not want to participate in the war. He came to Ireland through an invite to work on an organic farm in Carrigaline. He was struck by how kind and friendly everyone was. Gives a humorous account of how he misunderstood the meaning of hand and body gestures. There are few Israelis in Ireland. His friends are from a range of cultures. Discusses how he sees that Ireland is politically insular and lacking awareness of world issues.

Title A name given to the resource Cork 2005 Project Subject The topic of the resource Interviewing and radio project exploring migration, cultural contact and the social and physical landscape of Cork City in 2004 and 2005 and in the past, comprising of forty audio interviews and resulting in six half-hour radio programmes and a book. Description An account of the resource The Cork 2005 Project was carried out and funded as part of Cork’s tenure as European Capital of Culture in 2005. Building on the theme ‘City of Culture’, the project explored the questions: ‘What is the everyday culture of Cork City?’ and ‘Who are the people of the city?’, and aimed to broaden our archival holdings to reflect the increased numbers of migrants making their home in the city. 37 ethnographic interviews were carried out with Cork residents, more than two-thirds of whom had come to Cork from elsewhere, exploring their relationship with the cultural and social landscape of the city. The interviews include accounts of family life and growing up in Argentina, Australia, Bangladesh, Canada, China, England, Germany, India, Iraq, Israel, Kurdistan, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Poland, Slovakia, South Africa Ukraine, and the United States. A six-part radio series, entitled ‘How’s it goin’, boy?’ was broadcast on Cork Campus Radio in 2005, and a book of the same name was published in 2006. You can listen to the radio programmes on our website: How's it goin', boy? Radio Series. The interviews in this collection all have a similar structure. We asked all interviewees to describe their childhood neighbourhoods and communities and to discuss their relationship with Cork city in the present day. We also discussed experiences of migrancy, first impressions and cultural contact with those who had come to Cork from elsewhere and with Corkonians who had experience of migration. Interviewees came from diverse areas including Australia, the Marsh, Nigeria, Brittany, Gurranabraher, Russia, Evergreen Street, Spain, Poland and Kurdish Iraq. The collection project was carried out from March 2004 – June 2005. Interviewers on the project: Jennifer Butler; Lee Cassidy; Sean Claffey; Diane Hoppe; Dolores Horgan; John Mehegan; Clíona O’Carroll; Mary O’Driscoll; Noel O’Shaughnessy: Frances Quirke.

If you wish to access further archival material please contact CFP, folklorearchive@gmail.com S.C: A bit like myself really, ok tell me about how did you end up coming to Ireland and to Cork, how did you decide on Cork? R.S: Well I came to Ireland first when I was seventeen, basically because Sean Doherty put the idea in my head that I should go over for a summer and go to the Willy Clancy Week, and go round a few of the festivals so I did that and I ended up staying a year and a half, and then I went back to Australia for two years, and I've been back ever since, so I've lived in Kerry, Macroom Co Cork, and I've been in Galway for three years and I, the reason I moved to Cork city is for years now I've wanted to study violin making, that's kind of what I've wanted to do, and a year ago I moved to Cork to study with a French man in Cork called Bertrand Gallen, study violin making so that's what I'm doing. S.C: You're actually making violins now at the moment! R.S: I am yeah. S.C: Em what are your memories of coming to Ireland, of arriving in Cork, what were your first impressions of the city and its people? R.S: I thought Cork was quite relaxed, a bit more like a village than a city, and em I much prefer it to Dublin, because it's a small town, I don't think of it as a city, and I find that it is very friendly because of that. (I much prefer it to Galway because Galway is so touristy and here that doesn't, it's not like that). S.C: It's kind of like a gateway to west Cork really, people only come to Cork, except for Shandon and other places in Cork or Blarney, they tend to go west of the county really and head for Bantry, places like Bantry and Glengariff, and . . . R.S: Exactly, you've got the whole of West Cork right there for you, you know it's beautiful, and down into Kerry, and it's not too far up to Clare, so you might be, you know if they moved Cork up the West coast a bit it would be better, it's a good spot yeah.

Title A name given to the resource Rob Stafford: Aboriginals, Australia, Fiddle, Racial Prejudice, Traditional music, Willy Clancy Subject The topic of the resource Life History: Cork; Ireland; Austrailia; Description An account of the resource Rob grew up in Carrigullen, Perth, in Western Australia in a Eucalyptus forested area. He is the second eldest of five children. He has one brother and three sisters. Describes his neighbourhood as forested where the main source of income was growing apples and pears in the valleys. Sometimes temperatures could reach 45 degrees in the summer. Talks about how he grew up in a mainly Irish community in Perth. They were like a family to him and introduced him to Irish music. He was taught to play the fiddle by Sean Doherty from Charlestown, Co Mayo. Remembers fishing and going horse riding through the bush when he was a child. Relates a vivid memory from childhood; how the early pioneers ring barked Eucalyptus trees to kill them and how his father felled one of these skeleton trees. Describes in detail how he was taught to play the fiddle. Music was as much about the people as the music. He speaks of the enjoyment of camping in the bush and recalls the treat of spending two weeks with the Aboriginal community in North West Australia. Rob first came to Ireland when he was seventeen, to go to the Willy Clancy Week. He lived in Kerry, Macroom and Galway. He moved to Cork to study violin making with a French man called Bertrand Gallen. He loves the mixture of brilliant classical music as well as traditional music in Cork. He talks through the stages of making a violin.

Title A name given to the resource Cork 2005 Project Subject The topic of the resource Interviewing and radio project exploring migration, cultural contact and the social and physical landscape of Cork City in 2004 and 2005 and in the past, comprising of forty audio interviews and resulting in six half-hour radio programmes and a book. Description An account of the resource The Cork 2005 Project was carried out and funded as part of Cork’s tenure as European Capital of Culture in 2005. Building on the theme ‘City of Culture’, the project explored the questions: ‘What is the everyday culture of Cork City?’ and ‘Who are the people of the city?’, and aimed to broaden our archival holdings to reflect the increased numbers of migrants making their home in the city. 37 ethnographic interviews were carried out with Cork residents, more than two-thirds of whom had come to Cork from elsewhere, exploring their relationship with the cultural and social landscape of the city. The interviews include accounts of family life and growing up in Argentina, Australia, Bangladesh, Canada, China, England, Germany, India, Iraq, Israel, Kurdistan, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Poland, Slovakia, South Africa Ukraine, and the United States. A six-part radio series, entitled ‘How’s it goin’, boy?’ was broadcast on Cork Campus Radio in 2005, and a book of the same name was published in 2006. You can listen to the radio programmes on our website: How's it goin', boy? Radio Series. The interviews in this collection all have a similar structure. We asked all interviewees to describe their childhood neighbourhoods and communities and to discuss their relationship with Cork city in the present day. We also discussed experiences of migrancy, first impressions and cultural contact with those who had come to Cork from elsewhere and with Corkonians who had experience of migration. Interviewees came from diverse areas including Australia, the Marsh, Nigeria, Brittany, Gurranabraher, Russia, Evergreen Street, Spain, Poland and Kurdish Iraq. The collection project was carried out from March 2004 – June 2005. Interviewers on the project: Jennifer Butler; Lee Cassidy; Sean Claffey; Diane Hoppe; Dolores Horgan; John Mehegan; Clíona O’Carroll; Mary O’Driscoll; Noel O’Shaughnessy: Frances Quirke.

B O D: Yeah well wedding for example, how would I describe it? Church weddings didn't really happen! As far as all the weddings in Slovakia, I didn't go to church wedding. Well that's probably because the way it was, registry office, out to the wedding, the same you have your white clothes, you have to have your red clothes in the middle of the night, you the bride has to change to red clothes, and she'll be dancing for another while, and they don't go on honeymoon until next morning, so that's the only difference probably in this em traditional folk, polka, and this kind of clarinet or how do you call them those breathing instruments. . . M O'D: Clarinet, tuba, saxophone, trumpets? B O D: Trumpets, that's it yeah that would be there, loads of button accordions, harmonicas, yeah traditional folk, that would be the wedding just going on for about a day, not like Irish weddings: they can go on forever. (Laughs). M O'D: So would there be a lot of dancing at the weddings? B O D: Mm, loads of dancing, yeah, loads of drinking, loads of food yeah! M O'D: Could you tell me about the food? What kind of food? B O D: What would you have? We would have the traditional food would be em its kind of a beef, and its kind of white cabbage cooked, and you get your dumplings with it, and you get your dumplings yeah, your white cabbage, and your beef, it's kind of diced beef, and the cabbages em well not sour how will I say it? It just has a distinctive taste, it's sweet and sour more beer taste out of it, yeah, I don't know what to compare it to, in here, white cabbage like from coleslaw, something like that. That's the traditional food, then you would have your pork chop kind of thing with potatoes and vegetables of the day, whatever it is, and the most traditional food which is not served at weddings would be again special cheese with special bacon and home made dumplings - you can't get that cheese anywhere else: it's called Binza - and you just do your dumplings in the water and put that over with your bacon. And you drink kind of sour milk with it, which is made in the mountains by all the shepherds and they are supposed to be very strong from it. Em it's kind of sour milk as well, more like natural yoghurt or something, yeah so that's the traditional food totally different, veg, brown and white bread and the rolls. Yeah a little bit similar but not the same. Desserts, desserts are lovely! Desserts, there's a poppy seed cake that's my favourite and we eat that for Christmas as well, poppy seed dumplings I would call them, or sweet dumplings with poppy seed. Beautiful. Yeah that's the food in Bulgaria. Eat fish for Christmas then (we don't eat meat) we celebrate on Christmas Eve, can't eat meat so we eat the fish, and then, with your potato or potato salad whatever you prefer. The big day is then when we can eat is the twenty fifth and sixth, as everywhere else we just stuff ourselves and go with the families. Yeah that's the Slovakian way of putting it!

Title A name given to the resource Balaska O’Donoghue: Bulgaria, Cork City, Food, Music, Slovakia, Travel, Celebrations Subject The topic of the resource Life History: Cork: Ireland: Slovakia; Bulgaria Description An account of the resource Balaska grew up in the central city area of Kosice , Slovakia until she was 19. Her father was Bulgarian and her mother Slovakian. She has one-half brother. She came to Cork because she met a Cork man whilst visiting London. She spent a lot of time as a child with her grandmother in Bulgaria. She was an independent child. Her mother was often sick. In the era of communism, they would go to after school to do their homework. The family had a lot of holidays, going to spas and skiing in the winter. In Bulgaria on holiday she was exposed to many different nationalities. There were no church weddings. They took place in a registry office. The bride wore white during the day and changed into red in the middle of the evening. Balaska describes traditional Slovakian food. They ate diced beef and a type of sour cabbage with dumplings. She mentions a cheese called Binza and a poppy seed dessert. The ate fish on Christmas Eve. She describes spending three months with her grandmother in Bulgaria where she learned the language. Half of the village where her father was from married foreigners so the children who visited were half Bulgarian and half other nationalities. Balaska came to Cork because she met a Cork man in London. Her first observations of Cork were how colourful the houses were. When she came first it rained every day for two months. She loved how small Cork was as a city and the people were very friendly. Since she came to Cork it has become more international. There are more people with darker skin.

Title A name given to the resource Cork 2005 Project Subject The topic of the resource Interviewing and radio project exploring migration, cultural contact and the social and physical landscape of Cork City in 2004 and 2005 and in the past, comprising of forty audio interviews and resulting in six half-hour radio programmes and a book. Description An account of the resource The Cork 2005 Project was carried out and funded as part of Cork’s tenure as European Capital of Culture in 2005. Building on the theme ‘City of Culture’, the project explored the questions: ‘What is the everyday culture of Cork City?’ and ‘Who are the people of the city?’, and aimed to broaden our archival holdings to reflect the increased numbers of migrants making their home in the city. 37 ethnographic interviews were carried out with Cork residents, more than two-thirds of whom had come to Cork from elsewhere, exploring their relationship with the cultural and social landscape of the city. The interviews include accounts of family life and growing up in Argentina, Australia, Bangladesh, Canada, China, England, Germany, India, Iraq, Israel, Kurdistan, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Poland, Slovakia, South Africa Ukraine, and the United States. A six-part radio series, entitled ‘How’s it goin’, boy?’ was broadcast on Cork Campus Radio in 2005, and a book of the same name was published in 2006. You can listen to the radio programmes on our website: How's it goin', boy? Radio Series. The interviews in this collection all have a similar structure. We asked all interviewees to describe their childhood neighbourhoods and communities and to discuss their relationship with Cork city in the present day. We also discussed experiences of migrancy, first impressions and cultural contact with those who had come to Cork from elsewhere and with Corkonians who had experience of migration. Interviewees came from diverse areas including Australia, the Marsh, Nigeria, Brittany, Gurranabraher, Russia, Evergreen Street, Spain, Poland and Kurdish Iraq. The collection project was carried out from March 2004 – June 2005. Interviewers on the project: Jennifer Butler; Lee Cassidy; Sean Claffey; Diane Hoppe; Dolores Horgan; John Mehegan; Clíona O’Carroll; Mary O’Driscoll; Noel O’Shaughnessy: Frances Quirke.

If you wish to access further archival material please contact CFP, folklorearchive@gmail.com A.H.: I did. I’ll tell you the first experience about going abroad. One of the people I met when I moved to the Northside was a man called Kevin Gardner. Kevin and I became very close and we were always talking about slipping away out of Ireland, you see. I was only fourteen at this time, you see. Kevin was fifteen and a half. To tell you the truth, we ran away. We got a train from Cork up to Dublin —two kids— and we got a boat from Dublin to Liverpool. I remember because when we got off we went to a place called Lime Street Station in Liverpool. And we must have been noticeable. We must have stuck out because the next day the guards picked us up —my poor mother at the time God, and they sent us back to Ireland, you know. Needless to say I wasn’t too popular with the mother when I got back, you know? So I got the real taste for travelling then. And then, when I was seventeen, I said to my mother I’d like to spend some time with another distant relation who lived in London for about twenty-odd years at the time. So, I said I was going for a visit but, in actual fact —I was seventeen years of age— I got the Innisfallon at the time… we used to get it to Wales and get the train and I went to London but I didn’t stay… I met two Cork men at the time: Thomas Mulcahy and Seán O’Rourke from the Northside and we eh… they put me wide —so to speak— about getting flats. So I didn’t go and visit the cousin at all, because I knew there would be sort of restrictions on me. I wanted to be a free spirit at the time. But I spent the first five weeks in a place called Shepherds Bush and one of the lads said to me, like, you know, “what we have to do —because we had no place at the time— is go into the bus station in Shepherd’s Bush and they were wide because they had been there for a while— always pick the last bus in the station to sleep in because it would be last out in the morning”. It would be the furthest bus away, you see Noel, and many a night we were woken up at about three or four in the morning and told “get out!” and we’d be sleeping in benches until we got… N. O’S.: And how many other… would there have been other children or young people…? A.H.: There was five of us! I always remember there was three from Cork and two from the North of Ireland and we kind of… we stuck together because we were all Irish. We were very young at the time and I actually was working! I then… what happened is the boys said “to get a job now, like, this is where the Irish people hang out, in certain pubs” —there in London. And I met this man and they told me he was “the ganger man”. The ganger man at the time meant nothing to me. I soon picked up on all the slang words, so to speak, and I met this man called George Foley, who was a Cork man. George Foley, the first thing he says to me was “I’ll give you a start, but you’ll have to change two things: first” he says “you have to change your age, you’ll have to tell people you’re nineteen” —I was only seventeen for God’s sake — “Okay” I said, “what is the second thing”, he said “the second thing is you have to change your name” because everything was into the hand… this, that and the other… I learnt an awful lot, like, about how to get on as a young Irish person in London from people who had been there for twenty and thirty years. And I appreciated that. Now, it was during this time on a building site in London, I met a truck driver who used to deliver stuff to the site in what —at the time to me— was a very peculiar accent. And, as time went by, anyway, he told me his story. He was an Australian. Now, I had read about Australia, but I knew nothing about it… A.H.: I did.

O’S.: There’s not much life experience at that stage anyway… A.H.: No, it’s not, you see. Age is experience —which soon came along after that. And, eh… I had spent quite a while in London and I met a lot of Irish people —a lot of Cork people, in fact— and they had no intention of going nowhere, to be very honest with you. And that was their thing. I don’t blame these people, like. It’s just that me… I just had this thing that I wanted to go and see how the rest of the world was. I first landed then in South-East Asia before I went to Australia. I eventually got my visa to go to Australia in a place called “Australian house on the strand”. I got my little brown suitcases at the time… And I can remember very clearly —this actually happened to me— I got a train from Victoria and I was heading towards Heathrow airport and —there must be about eight million people in London— and I was sitting in the carriage and Noel’s —my brother’s— friend comes into the carriage and spots me… comes up to me —he was a man of about twenty-three, twenty-four at the time. He says “Where are you going?” Well I told a lie at the time, I said “Well, I’m actually going home”. “That’s great” he says, “they’ll be looking forward to see you!” But he looked at the tag on my bag and he says —and he hit the roof—, he says “does your family realise you’re going to Australia” you see? So I said “Ah, yeah! I told them”. He was very insistent in coming to the airport, so much so, I jumped off the train —I did! I actually jumped off the train to give him the slip and I got to the airport. But, you see, I wanted to stop over —I didn’t go straight to Australia—, and headed down to Singapore… Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Andy Hawkins: Australia, Culture, Celtic Tiger, Coal Quay, Holy Communion, Inishfallen, London Subject The topic of the resource Life History: Cork; Ireland; Australia; London; Work; Description An account of the resource Andy Hawkins was born in The Marsh and lived there until he was 7 when his family moved to Mayfield. He was the youngest of nine. He went to St Francis School. His father ran a small carpentry business in The Marsh. His father died when Andy was young and his mother died in February 1979. Andy went to London at 17 and to Australia at 19 where he lived for 30 years. His wife Bernadette is from Cork. His two children were born in Australia and still live there. When he was seven they moved to Mayfield and he remembers the novelty of having a bath and developing an interest in wildlife and in breeding birds. He describes how he went to Ross’s Wood and on fishing trips with his dog Buster. His got his first pair of long trousers for his first Holy Communion. A family friend offered the ‘communion breakfast’ which was the norm back then. Soccer was a big interest for him. He describes, with excitement, the big adventure it was going to games and travelling out of Cork for a match. A big treat was getting his 2 and 6 pocket money on a Saturday morning so he could spend it on watching Cowboy films at the cinema where “who is the boy” was an important question. Andy recalls a local man called Seanie Downey who was a boxer in the Irish Army and who represented Ireland in gymnastics. He talks also of another well known local figure called John Walsh who sold bundles of sticks and give him donkey rides along the Coal Quay. Andy’s brother kept a pigeon loft and Andy earned thruppence to clean it out. He was fascinated that the birds returned ‘for their dinner.’ They kept a garden and his mother taught him about growing fruit and vegetables. His mother became a widow in her 40s. In those days women never remarried. When Andy was 14 he ran away to London with a childhood friend. They were picked up by police and sent home. He left for London at 17 on the Inishfallen and gives detailed description about his arrival in London, sleeping rough, getting work on building sites and his dream to go to Australia. At 19 he left for Australia via Singapore. His first job in Perth was in a foundry. He hitchhiked to other towns and took the Indian Pacific train to Adelaide to avoid being conscripted. He spent time in Sydney and Perth and describes with humour some of the unusual jobs he had: working with horses and being the driver for an alcoholic railway manager. He recounts how his saving grace in Australia was the fact that he could play music. He started traditional music sessions in pubs in Perth and it was a great scene. Andy describes coming back to live in Cork in May 2000. It was more complicated and expensive to get accommodation and services than in Australia. When he left Ireland was more conservative so he wasn’t prepared for how less subservient people were and how they discussed their sex lives openly at work. There was a sense that Ireland had made a sudden jump into the Celtic Tiger. Andy noticed how much more money young people had and how much beer they drank. He felt the community spirit had gone and the new building developments didn’t take care of people’s community needs. Describes how he loves being back in Cork for the social life and knowing so many people and for the ‘ball hopping’.

Title A name given to the resource Cork 2005 Project Subject The topic of the resource Interviewing and radio project exploring migration, cultural contact and the social and physical landscape of Cork City in 2004 and 2005 and in the past, comprising of forty audio interviews and resulting in six half-hour radio programmes and a book. Description An account of the resource The Cork 2005 Project was carried out and funded as part of Cork’s tenure as European Capital of Culture in 2005. Building on the theme ‘City of Culture’, the project explored the questions: ‘What is the everyday culture of Cork City?’ and ‘Who are the people of the city?’, and aimed to broaden our archival holdings to reflect the increased numbers of migrants making their home in the city. 37 ethnographic interviews were carried out with Cork residents, more than two-thirds of whom had come to Cork from elsewhere, exploring their relationship with the cultural and social landscape of the city. The interviews include accounts of family life and growing up in Argentina, Australia, Bangladesh, Canada, China, England, Germany, India, Iraq, Israel, Kurdistan, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Poland, Slovakia, South Africa Ukraine, and the United States. A six-part radio series, entitled ‘How’s it goin’, boy?’ was broadcast on Cork Campus Radio in 2005, and a book of the same name was published in 2006. You can listen to the radio programmes on our website: How's it goin', boy? Radio Series. The interviews in this collection all have a similar structure. We asked all interviewees to describe their childhood neighbourhoods and communities and to discuss their relationship with Cork city in the present day. We also discussed experiences of migrancy, first impressions and cultural contact with those who had come to Cork from elsewhere and with Corkonians who had experience of migration. Interviewees came from diverse areas including Australia, the Marsh, Nigeria, Brittany, Gurranabraher, Russia, Evergreen Street, Spain, Poland and Kurdish Iraq.

If you wish to access further archival material please contact CFP, folklorearchive@gmail.com C.O'C: What was Gurranebraher like in the early days? K.O'C Well I remember my mother now and my aunt when they were young, they used to come up Gurranebraher for their walks, you know their walks of a Sunday, maybe their walks in the evening after school, and it was only countryside, all fields. And then I remember when we were very young my mother would take us up what’s Knocknaheeny now do you know Knocknaheeny up there and I can see her she’d be in the field knitting: they were all knitters: all the mothers were great knitters, the little jumpers and the little dresses because it was cheaper to knit. And we’d be jumping over the ditches going from one field to the other so you see that was countryside to me when I was young, and it’s all built up now, and this place was countryside to people sort of in my mothers area and era, and it’s all kind of built up now. But it was lovely when we came up and no matter where we went, what’s Churchfield now is all fields, so we’d be over around Churchfield and we’d have great laugh, there’d be little ponds and you’d be gathering up the grass, and you’d be putting it into the ponds so that the water would rise you know. Even Sun Valley Drive down there now that’s how we would used to go and come to school, it was all fields, there was one big, big slope and we’d be running up the slope and running down and running up the slope and you might be an hour or two late coming from school and you would be murdered because your dinner would be burnt in the oven or in the pot, but it was lovely. Then we used to go out Fairhill – that was all countryside – and farmers, it was all kind of farming land really: you’d be looking in at the cows grazing, and we used to go . . .

Title A name given to the resource Cork 2005 Project Subject The topic of the resource Interviewing and radio project exploring migration, cultural contact and the social and physical landscape of Cork City in 2004 and 2005 and in the past, comprising of forty audio interviews and resulting in six half-hour radio programmes and a book. Description An account of the resource The Cork 2005 Project was carried out and funded as part of Cork’s tenure as European Capital of Culture in 2005. Building on the theme ‘City of Culture’, the project explored the questions: ‘What is the everyday culture of Cork City?’ and ‘Who are the people of the city?’, and aimed to broaden our archival holdings to reflect the increased numbers of migrants making their home in the city. 37 ethnographic interviews were carried out with Cork residents, more than two-thirds of whom had come to Cork from elsewhere, exploring their relationship with the cultural and social landscape of the city. The interviews include accounts of family life and growing up in Argentina, Australia, Bangladesh, Canada, China, England, Germany, India, Iraq, Israel, Kurdistan, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Poland, Slovakia, South Africa Ukraine, and the United States. A six-part radio series, entitled ‘How’s it goin’, boy?’ was broadcast on Cork Campus Radio in 2005, and a book of the same name was published in 2006. You can listen to the radio programmes on our website: How's it goin', boy? Radio Series. The interviews in this collection all have a similar structure. We asked all interviewees to describe their childhood neighbourhoods and communities and to discuss their relationship with Cork city in the present day. We also discussed experiences of migrancy, first impressions and cultural contact with those who had come to Cork from elsewhere and with Corkonians who had experience of migration. Interviewees came from diverse areas including Australia, the Marsh, Nigeria, Brittany, Gurranabraher, Russia, Evergreen Street, Spain, Poland and Kurdish Iraq. The collection project was carried out from March 2004 – June 2005.

If you wish to access further archival material please contact CFP, folklorearchive@gmail.com F Q: Was it then that you left Nigeria? E I: No. I left in two-thousand and two because, when I moved out of Kaduna, I had to stay over in the university campus —which is the Montebello University— where my Internet café… I was running the Internet café. So, that was where the business was… I shot home from Kaduna in the mornings over there to Zaria, and the close of the business for the day. I also shot over… go over back to Kaduna. So while I moved my family, I rented a house in Zaria —which was the university community, the city where the university is—. So, in two-thousand and two… There has been a sustained process whereby the Muslim students usually win the student annual elections; they have always held all the positions: the president, the secretary, finance… all the positions they take over. And… when I came in, I started running the Internet café. I had good patrons… I was getting good patrons because often internet cafés… well, I was doing well and I had good people working with me —and working for me—. But on that time we now sort of had you know, meetings. There was meetings you know, church groups, but meetings amongst the students who were Christians at least… the kind of getting together to be together and talking about matters that affects Christians in the campus. So, it happened that in one of the… within those times we now floated a fellowship and, at that fellowship, it was when we started… I also introduced ideas about how to really, you know, offset the imbalance and the idea was, at least, to be more involved… the students getting more involved —at least getting into good positions— so that that would actually change the imbalance or the status quo. Then, I promised them to provide the assistance needed —well, financially the way that I can—: the posters, I undertook the posters; I sponsored one of the students, a Christian. I saw to it that, you know, the students got good following for him, doing a bit of… kind of, good publicity. And that actually was able to… the votes tilted when the election came: it was in favour of this Christian boy, and he got elected. When the Muslims —as soon as that— saw that they had actually lost grounds, they objected and attacked the voting group, some of them who were Christians… came down on the students. And it was widely reported in the papers and in the media because about fifty students got killed and some hospitalised; a lot of girls were raped, Christian girls were raped and some had serious injuries, you know, fatal injuries and were admitted in hospitals. They came down my end, but I was lucky to get a tip-off one of the Muslim boys who usually patronised me and he said his conscience tells him that he wouldn’t be happy if he allows me fall into their hands. So he forewarned me that, at this time, this is what is going to happen; I shouldn’t come out to the business —to the internet café—; I must leave that city at once because the whole target is that, if they get to me —and that boy who won—, automatically they have broken our base. So, when they got to the internet café, we were locked, you know, we were closed. And they tattered the place because it was me always using their container —a forty feet container, two forty feet and a twenty feet container— so it was all mashed together but I was paying for the long space to the school authorities. So I got the masts, [because usually we don’t have easy connection, so we build a hundred and twenty feet masts so we can get the line of connection into the… between the radio that I am using and the base station that supplies connectivity]. So, some of them climbed up to the masts, brought down the radio —you know, because usually we use the radio on the mast— and the antenna, destroying it; he hacked the keys out from the locks, went in there; virtually ransacked the whole place; took off computers and… they did so many things and the authorities, the law enforcement were nowhere. A lot of us called out… a lot of the students —Christian students who ran to safety— called out to the police and nobody came!

Title A name given to the resource Emeka Ikebuasi: Customs, Nigeria, Political Unrest, Stories, Refugee Subject The topic of the resource Life History: Cork; Ireland; Nigeria; Description An account of the resource Emeka Ikebuasi from Nigeria describes the harrowing political events which led to his family coming to Cork as refugees. He talks, in depth, of his village upbringing in Nigeria and highlights village ceremonies, the telling of stories, witch doctors and holiday customs. Emeka was born in Kaduna State, Northern Nigeria, Africa. There were ten children in his family. The first two children came from his father’s first marriage. Emeka describes the village he grew up in as clustered, with neighbours living just a few metres from each other. They didn’t have toys but played street games like football and rolling tyres. They sang songs as the community gathered in the moonlight and the children played hide and seek. Their grandmother told them stories that carried moral themes. Emeka’s paternal grandfather was a tribal leader. Emeka recalls the story of his grandfather’s death: how someone with a grievance got a witch doctor to put a curse on him. Emeka talks about how African weddings are more traditional; how the families come together to prepare the food and palm wine and how certain dishes must be there for the wedding to be regarded as a proper wedding. The actual ceremony is the father of the bride presenting a glass of wine to his daughter who gives it to her future husband. Children received small gifts of money and clothes at Christmas. They might witness the slaughter of a goat or chicken for the meal. Festivities could last for three days. The family fled Kaduna in 2000 because of religious wars between Christians and Muslims and the introduction of Sharia Law. Their home was burnt down and the family circle moved to safety to other African states. Emeka describes the horror of people being murdered and corpses lying on the street for days. Emeka came to Ireland in 2002 after his business was destroyed in riots and his family was under threat. He describes coming to Cork via Dublin and staying in Glounthaune until he set up home in Carrigaline. There are a number of African shops and restaurants and Emeka describes all the different African states that are represented in Cork: How they all speak broken English to understand each other. The Cork Inter-Cultural Group was set up to help change negative perceptions of minority groups. Emeka outlines its many activities for children and adults and discusses the social and cultural gatherings he has been involved in. He comments on the care and support he received from Cork people. Emeka reflects on how safe Cork is and how he can wake up and ‘find his head where he left it’.

Title A name given to the resource Cork 2005 Project Subject The topic of the resource Interviewing and radio project exploring migration, cultural contact and the social and physical landscape of Cork City in 2004 and 2005 and in the past, comprising of forty audio interviews and resulting in six half-hour radio programmes and a book. Description An account of the resource The Cork 2005 Project was carried out and funded as part of Cork’s tenure as European Capital of Culture in 2005. Building on the theme ‘City of Culture’, the project explored the questions: ‘What is the everyday culture of Cork City?’ and ‘Who are the people of the city?’, and aimed to broaden our archival holdings to reflect the increased numbers of migrants making their home in the city. 37 ethnographic interviews were carried out with Cork residents, more than two-thirds of whom had come to Cork from elsewhere, exploring their relationship with the cultural and social landscape of the city. The interviews include accounts of family life and growing up in Argentina, Australia, Bangladesh, Canada, China, England, Germany, India, Iraq, Israel, Kurdistan, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Poland, Slovakia, South Africa Ukraine, and the United States. A six-part radio series, entitled ‘How’s it goin’, boy?’ was broadcast on Cork Campus Radio in 2005, and a book of the same name was published in 2006. You can listen to the radio programmes on our website: How's it goin', boy? Radio Series. The interviews in this collection all have a similar structure. We asked all interviewees to describe their childhood neighbourhoods and communities and to discuss their relationship with Cork city in the present day. We also discussed experiences of migrancy, first impressions and cultural contact with those who had come to Cork from elsewhere and with Corkonians who had experience of migration. Interviewees came from diverse areas including Australia, the Marsh, Nigeria, Brittany, Gurranabraher, Russia, Evergreen Street, Spain, Poland and Kurdish Iraq. The collection project was carried out from March 2004 – June 2005.

If you wish to access further archival material please contact CFP, folklorearchive@gmail.com N G: I’d say I started school about- you didn’t start that time at three or four, I started at about five, and we had to walk a mile and a half to school, it was Owen na Bui National School, twas a two teacher school at the time. And I remember my old teachers Mrs McSweeney and Mr Murphy, and you would have fourth, fifth and sixth class together in the one room and then you’d have the I suppose, the infants, the first, the second, and the third, in one room. And eh, naturally there was no central heating at that time, and we’d all have to bring a sod of turf to school in the morning for the fire. And I remember our lunch consisted of a bottle of milk, eh a couple of slices of brown bread, butter and jam. Well of course Noel, if there was a station on in the parish, you know where the Mass is held in the house, we’d be allowed go to the station and we’d bring lots of currant bread to school from the station. Let’s see where do I go on from here? N O'S: That’s about the stations, are they still going on? N G: Oh they’re still going on! They are, the majority of them now are held in the church, but they are, they’re still going on. But sure the stations in the country before I mean they turned the house inside out, cleaning it and painting and decorating and everything for the stations. I think they are mostly held at night in the homes, but they were always held in the morning, about nine o’clock in the morning. And eh of course then at the stations you had to pay the station money. N O'S: Sorry for interrupting you Noreen, could you explain a little bit about what the station money is? N G: The station money was money you would pay at the station, it was a half crown, well the big farmers now would have paid more, but you know anyone who could afford it, it was a half crown. It was for the priest for petrol for their car for the year, and the following week it would be called out in the church what each person gave, the station money. N O'S: That’s very intimidating!

Title A name given to the resource Noreen Geaney: Childhood Games, Céilí, Halloween, School, The Stations. Subject The topic of the resource Life History: Cork; Religion; Youth Description An account of the resource An account of growing up on a small farm in the Cork countryside and the simplicity of life in the 1950s. Noreen was born in Cuileann Ui Chaoimh in Co. Cork. She had three sisters and one brother. She attended Owen na Bui National School. She lived and worked in Dublin for six years and met her husband there. He was a prison officer in Mountjoy. They came back to live in Cork in 1972. Noreen describes her family and childhood as being simple. Their needs were simple. Bacon and cabbage were their basic diet. She remembers Ling fish on a Friday and describes ‘Pandy’. Blackberry wine was made in season and buried in the ground for three weeks. At the time old people weren’t living in homes. Noreen describes the funeral rites of her grandparents: How they were laid out in a brown habit and waked for two nights. Stations were held in people’s houses. People gave money according to their means and Noreen recalls that the amount you gave would be read out at the church the following week. Their school had only two teachers for all the classes. They walked a mile and a half and had to bring fuel for the fire. Parenting was strict and Noreen recalls a story of sneaking out to a ceilí and her father beating her along the road afterwards. Noreen describes the games and rituals of Halloween: Playing Blindman’s bluff and her mother laying the table ‘for the dead’. Noreen worked in Dublin for years and came back to Cork with her family in 1972.

Title A name given to the resource Cork 2005 Project Subject The topic of the resource Interviewing and radio project exploring migration, cultural contact and the social and physical landscape of Cork City in 2004 and 2005 and in the past, comprising of forty audio interviews and resulting in six half-hour radio programmes and a book. Description An account of the resource The Cork 2005 Project was carried out and funded as part of Cork’s tenure as European Capital of Culture in 2005. Building on the theme ‘City of Culture’, the project explored the questions: ‘What is the everyday culture of Cork City?’ and ‘Who are the people of the city?’, and aimed to broaden our archival holdings to reflect the increased numbers of migrants making their home in the city. 37 ethnographic interviews were carried out with Cork residents, more than two-thirds of whom had come to Cork from elsewhere, exploring their relationship with the cultural and social landscape of the city. The interviews include accounts of family life and growing up in Argentina, Australia, Bangladesh, Canada, China, England, Germany, India, Iraq, Israel, Kurdistan, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Poland, Slovakia, South Africa Ukraine, and the United States. A six-part radio series, entitled ‘How’s it goin’, boy?’ was broadcast on Cork Campus Radio in 2005, and a book of the same name was published in 2006. You can listen to the radio programmes on our website: How's it goin', boy? Radio Series. The interviews in this collection all have a similar structure. We asked all interviewees to describe their childhood neighbourhoods and communities and to discuss their relationship with Cork city in the present day. We also discussed experiences of migrancy, first impressions and cultural contact with those who had come to Cork from elsewhere and with Corkonians who had experience of migration. Interviewees came from diverse areas including Australia, the Marsh, Nigeria, Brittany, Gurranabraher, Russia, Evergreen Street, Spain, Poland and Kurdish Iraq. The collection project was carried out from March 2004 – June 2005. Interviewers on the project: Jennifer Butler; Lee Cassidy; Sean Claffey; Diane Hoppe; Dolores Horgan; John Mehegan; Clíona O’Carroll; Mary O’Driscoll; Noel O’Shaughnessy: Frances Quirke.

If you wish to access further archival material please contact CFP, folklorearchive@gmail.com M.O'D: When I say Cork are there, can you think of three words that come to mind, the first three things that jump to mind? S.W: Lee, chaos, change. M.O'D: Can you say a bit about those? S.W: As I mentioned before the Lee always kind of stuck out, em well maybe not the Lee as being the Lee, and everything that’s linked to it for a Cork person, but just as a river flowing through a city and eh adding so much more flair to it; I suppose that might be debatable as regards to everything that goes into it, as well which one mightn’t want to think about too closely, but just as such I always really well that’s something, coming into Cork city, Patrick’s Bridge, and so on. It’s really doing something for me. Now chaos, I suppose the traffic I’m referring to. (I would have come to Ireland with a bicycle, again you know when I came over to Ireland I flew into Ireland, I had my bicycle with me, flying through Shannon, putting the bicycle onto the bus, and off we went to Cork, so I would have cycled for the first couple of years all over the place, and eh which was a great way of transport and I was grateful for having the bike, because I’ve heard that the traffic is lunacy here; obviously the whole infrastructure in Cork is was geared towards garages, small cars or whatever and em but then obviously the whole thing evolved traffic grew more and more cars on the streets, and just congestion all over the place, and on top of that, I suppose a typical, is it Irish or particularly Corkonian behaviour, to park everywhere you want, it doesn’t matter if you block the road, you already have a car parked on one side of the road, it doesn’t matter if you park on the other side of the road, and nobody else can get through. So that to some extent amused me, to another extent annoyed me, and em I suppose I would have been used to cycling a long, long time, and cycling probably in a haphazard way, myself, but it would have suited me down to the ground you know: I didn’t care whether I broke a red light, or just go against the stream, which I still do, which I think is very well to do, but obviously it’s getting a bit more dangerous now because things have improved ever so small I suppose. The surfaces in Cork city have improved luckily ten years down the road, that brings me on to change, the change that took place particularly over the past five years I think is just phenomenal, em I’m saying that in a very neutral way, so I’m not sure if that is a good thing or a bad thing, I suppose it’s both. Remembering coming to Cork and yeah getting around in Cork ten years ago, there were certain areas where I thought this is unbelievable, this reminded me of em really probably the early times after the second World War in Germany em well that would be an exaggeration now obviously there would have been devastating destruction there, but em lets say the years after rebuilding Germany and so on, and you would have had really very poor architecture, very neglected areas and so on, and certainly one area that sticks in my mind would be the North Mall: that would have been extremely grey, a lot of dilapidated houses, em at the same time there was a nice flair in that area but really I felt grey, grey on a bad day it really could have an impact on somebody’s mood like, and certainly the Coal Quay similarly. So they were the things there was an attraction one side kind of a feeling of being appalled, how things could be that way, could be that bad in the 90’s, so that certainly had an impression on me.

Title A name given to the resource Stefan Wulff: Germany, Cycling, Currachs, Change, Subject The topic of the resource Life History; Cork; Ireland; Germany; Description An account of the resource A detailed interview with German born Stefan Wulff. He gives a really rich account of building currachs, of trips down the Lee and his impressions of Cork from the river side. Stefan was born in Dortmund, in the Ruhr Valley, Germany. He has one brother and one sister. He came to study in UCC in 1994. The agricultural area where Stefan grew up was very spacious with plenty of fields to play in. He played the usual childhood games: cycling, football and a favourite which was shooting darts from an air rifle in their cellar. He had a passion for kite flying and bought hundreds over the years. His earliest memory is of not wanting to go to pre-school and nun like figures who wanted to give him (calcium) tablets. He remembers his grandmother telling him stories particularly about his father growing up in Prussia and how during the war and they had to flee for their own safety and moved to northern Germany. His grandmother helped in the process of settling the large numbers of refugees. He was told his grandfather was shot, but Stefan later learned he had ended his own life. Stefan first came with a cycling group in 1983. He came back in 1994 on a student exchange programme to UCC where he met his future wife. Stefan mentions the differences in the social dimensions between Ireland and Germany. It took him years to settle in Ireland because of these differences. He uses the words Lee, chaos and change to describe Cork. The river Lee holds a strong attraction for Stefan, and he speaks of it bringing a certain flair to Cork. The chaos comes from observing the lunacy of cork driving and parking habits. He talks about the change in Cork’s architecture and how dilapidated some buildings were when he first arrived. Stefan highlights his discomfort with the drinking culture and how much more consumer orientated people are and how it has brought greed to some. Naomhoige Chorcai and Meitheal Mara are rowing clubs that build and row currachs. Stefan describes the boats, getting them into the water and rowing them down the Lee. He gives a detailed description of viewing Cork from the river side and a long journey he took on the open sea, in an Aran currach, from Lettermullen in Connemara to Inishman with Padraig O’Dineen, one of the founders of Meitheal Mara, and Brian Hennessy.

Title A name given to the resource Cork 2005 Project Subject The topic of the resource Interviewing and radio project exploring migration, cultural contact and the social and physical landscape of Cork City in 2004 and 2005 and in the past, comprising of forty audio interviews and resulting in six half-hour radio programmes and a book. Description An account of the resource The Cork 2005 Project was carried out and funded as part of Cork’s tenure as European Capital of Culture in 2005. Building on the theme ‘City of Culture’, the project explored the questions: ‘What is the everyday culture of Cork City?’ and ‘Who are the people of the city?’, and aimed to broaden our archival holdings to reflect the increased numbers of migrants making their home in the city. 37 ethnographic interviews were carried out with Cork residents, more than two-thirds of whom had come to Cork from elsewhere, exploring their relationship with the cultural and social landscape of the city. The interviews include accounts of family life and growing up in Argentina, Australia, Bangladesh, Canada, China, England, Germany, India, Iraq, Israel, Kurdistan, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Poland, Slovakia, South Africa Ukraine, and the United States. A six-part radio series, entitled ‘How’s it goin’, boy?’ was broadcast on Cork Campus Radio in 2005, and a book of the same name was published in 2006. You can listen to the radio programmes on our website: How's it goin', boy? Radio Series. The interviews in this collection all have a similar structure. We asked all interviewees to describe their childhood neighbourhoods and communities and to discuss their relationship with Cork city in the present day. We also discussed experiences of migrancy, first impressions and cultural contact with those who had come to Cork from elsewhere and with Corkonians who had experience of migration. Interviewees came from diverse areas including Australia, the Marsh, Nigeria, Brittany, Gurranabraher, Russia, Evergreen Street, Spain, Poland and Kurdish Iraq. The collection project was carried out from March 2004 – June 2005. Interviewers on the project: Jennifer Butler; Lee Cassidy; Sean Claffey; Diane Hoppe; Dolores Horgan; John Mehegan; Clíona O’Carroll; Mary O’Driscoll; Noel O’Shaughnessy: Frances Quirke.

L.C: Did you have any difficulties with the accent? K.A: With the accent, with my accent? L.C: The Cork accent. K.A: Oh the Cork accent. Well somebody, well I met one Australian boy recently in Russia, actually so you see Russia is changing, and he said ok my friend is living in Ireland, and I said oh she’s living in Cork, and I hear Cork accent when I speak to you, so I probably have Cork accent myself already. It’s the only accent I heard really in this country, because I didn’t live in other places. So I accept it, it’s like my own language now, my own accent. L.C: Can you think of a common phrase. K.A: Common phrase. L.C: A common Cork phrase. K.A: Good luck, it’s not good luck, it’s good luck. And what else, em I don’t know are there are Cork phrase, I really should think about it, I can’t remember straight away. L.C: We can come back to that later. Are there any places in Cork that give you a similar feeling to places maybe at home in Russia? K.A: Similar feeling, actually I’m living in Bishopstown in Model Farm Road, and other side of the Model Farm Road is a forest if you know. So I go for a walk nearly every weekend, sometimes I walk to my college in the morning through this forest, I just go to Leeside, and that’s real beautiful place, I just love it, and it really remind me of the place where I was growing when I was child, yeah, it just really remind me.

Title A name given to the resource Karina Abdulbaneeva: Art, Russia, London, Spirituality, Nature, Nationality, New Year’s Day, Religion, Subject The topic of the resource Life History: Cork; Ireland; London; Russia Description An account of the resource Russian born Karina Abdulbaneeva, talks about coming to Cork from London in 2001 and her impressions of the smallness and accessibility of the city. She describes the helpfulness of Cork people and the spirituality of the country in which she feels she has been welcomed into and helped. Karina was born in Moscow, Russia and came to Cork in 2001. She has two children and lives in Bishopstown. She is an art teacher. Karina grew up in an apartment in a nine story building, with around five hundred other families, which was a common living situation in Russia. She describes a strong sense of community. They children played games in the local forest. Karina loved ‘the secret’ which involved collecting beautiful items like coloured paper or flowers and burying them in the earth. They would only be shown to special friends. Karina started school at seven. It was the custom there that children as young as four could be left alone at home. Karina spent hours drawing, which nurtured her passion for art and led to her eventually becoming an art teacher. New Year’s Day was the day to celebrate. They didn’t recognise Christmas. Another holiday was the eight of March, International Women’s Day. They had no religious education in schools so there was no abeyance to religious holidays or rites. Karina describes Russia as being closed when she was growing up. They didn’t meet any foreigners until she spent time abroad with her parents. Karina came to Ireland, via London, she says through ‘fate’. She was first struck by the smallness of the buildings and streets and how spiritual Ireland is. Blarney Castle and St Finbarre’s cathedral are her favourite places in Cork. In comparison to Moscow. Cork is small and convenient for meeting your living needs. Karina mentions how cork people are changing and are more open to other nationalities.

Title A name given to the resource Cork 2005 Project Subject The topic of the resource Interviewing and radio project exploring migration, cultural contact and the social and physical landscape of Cork City in 2004 and 2005 and in the past, comprising of forty audio interviews and resulting in six half-hour radio programmes and a book. Description An account of the resource The Cork 2005 Project was carried out and funded as part of Cork’s tenure as European Capital of Culture in 2005. Building on the theme ‘City of Culture’, the project explored the questions: ‘What is the everyday culture of Cork City?’ and ‘Who are the people of the city?’, and aimed to broaden our archival holdings to reflect the increased numbers of migrants making their home in the city. 37 ethnographic interviews were carried out with Cork residents, more than two-thirds of whom had come to Cork from elsewhere, exploring their relationship with the cultural and social landscape of the city. The interviews include accounts of family life and growing up in Argentina, Australia, Bangladesh, Canada, China, England, Germany, India, Iraq, Israel, Kurdistan, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Poland, Slovakia, South Africa Ukraine, and the United States. A six-part radio series, entitled ‘How’s it goin’, boy?’ was broadcast on Cork Campus Radio in 2005, and a book of the same name was published in 2006. You can listen to the radio programmes on our website: How's it goin', boy? Radio Series. The interviews in this collection all have a similar structure. We asked all interviewees to describe their childhood neighbourhoods and communities and to discuss their relationship with Cork city in the present day. We also discussed experiences of migrancy, first impressions and cultural contact with those who had come to Cork from elsewhere and with Corkonians who had experience of migration. Interviewees came from diverse areas including Australia, the Marsh, Nigeria, Brittany, Gurranabraher, Russia, Evergreen Street, Spain, Poland and Kurdish Iraq. The collection project was carried out from March 2004 – June 2005. Interviewers on the project: Jennifer Butler; Lee Cassidy; Sean Claffey; Diane Hoppe; Dolores Horgan; John Mehegan; Clíona O’Carroll; Mary O’Driscoll; Noel O’Shaughnessy: Frances Quirke.

D.H: So Robert going back what was your first impression of Cork? R.F: My first impression of Cork, I remember driving in, I had a friend drive me from Dublin – she lives in Dublin – and she drove me into Cork. And em I don’t know, I didn’t know what to expect, I didn’t know what Cork would be like, I mean I know there was a match on when I arrived and the place was very dirty (there was litter everywhere) and we came up MacCurtain Street, because my B & B was at MacCurtain Street, and there was a huge amount of litter there, and I remember my friend complaining about the amount of litter, and then I just got a sense, I just thought that Cork looked very interesting: it was very kind of hodge podge, you know, different colours, different textures, different types of buildings, a lot of the buildings I thought were not looked after like you’d think, like monument type buildings very neglected. And em but I was interested in all the different, it was an interesting town, it was very em stimulating because of the different colours, different types of things to see. I noticed that there was only one type of person: it was just Irish people kind of thing: I’m used to much more, lots of different races and colours and people and that, it was just one type of person, it was, white European kind of people, and very few Africans or darker coloured people, but that has changed in the last five years of course, em but I do remember thinking it was very monocultural, and that kind of thing; I also came to Cork in kind of Summer so it was very bright, and I thought, I liked the city, I felt it was interesting. One of the things that really struck me as well about the houses was that they all looked so like on top of each other, and tiny and small, and being used to houses in South Africa where there is planning (the cities are really planned) they are all modern cities – they are not like medieval towns or cities like Cork. So everything is planned and there are long distances, you know and the houses are widely placed, and everybody has got a little plot of land, and all the houses are separate. I’m talking about middle class kind of European people, white people in South Africa. A lot of Africans now that’s also the case – they live like that in South Africa too, but there is that differentiation: African people are often poorer, but not all, of course, but I noticed that when I came to Cork I thought Gosh, the houses are so squashed up nearly like a township, really I think in South Africa, and I’d always be surprised going into a house or a shop: it looked so small on the outside, and when you went in it was much bigger on the like an oblong shaped house, a square house, and most houses in South Africa wouldn’t have a double story, most houses are single storey, and they spread out on the ground rather than going up, so I noticed houses having three or four storeys, and that was very unusual for me, and I was struck by just how everything was squashed up, so em houses are very different, just the way people build, and the way people live as well, and very small spaces for people to bring up very large families in, one just wonders how people with twelve children or even six children would manage on such a squashed up house, and then I said why isn’t there enough space to build, and it’s not like that, it’s just that there is a different culture of building houses and a different way of building and a different way of conceiving of houses. Em later on I mean I started noticing when I spoke to people, local people, em one of the big topics of conversation in Ireland is property, and that everybody wants to have property, everyone wants to have a house, whereas where I come from no one really talks about that, it’s just taken for granted: you might get a house or you might not; you might rent or you might buy, but there is no focus on ownership of property, em although everyone you know a lot of people have, buy houses over in South Africa. Here young people, young people between the ages of twenty and thirty, are you know they’re all talking about they want a house, they want property, they want to own houses, and then you look at the prices of the houses, and like that was one thing that would just astound me at the price of a house: to me 100,000 pounds or punt at the time was just, for a house so small, and so cramped, how could you ever pay that amount of money for a house, and so I never, I still to this day don’t understand this property obsession, and everybody focussing on ownership of houses, and why don’t people just spread the building out more into the country and open it up and have more houses, and you know it’s just very difficult for me to understand. But I suppose there is a history and there is a history of British occupation, and ownership, and people wanting ownership of their land because they were you know disenfranchised and their land taken away from them, so one can understand it from that perspective, Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Robert Fourie: Hiberno-English, Holy Communion, Language, South Africa, Subject The topic of the resource Life History: Cork; Ireland; South Africa Description An account of the resource Robert talks in detail about growing up in South Africa, and makes some observations about Cork places and people. Robert (b. 1969) is from a gold-mining town in South Africa. He talks about mining conditions there. He comments that South Africa has many different cultures and languages. He remembers Holy Communion as being a very religious event without the element of being given money. He talks about the kind of food and meals that are eaten by white South Africans. After gaining a qualification in Speech and Language Therapy, he wanted to travel and he settled in Cork. After returning home he missed Cork and returned. He describes his impression of the city when he first arrived. He observes that Irish people are quite indirect in their conversation and avoid sounding confrontational, and he returns to the topic of how language is employed. He relates a couple of funny Cork conversations which he overheard.

Title A name given to the resource Cork 2005 Project Subject The topic of the resource Interviewing and radio project exploring migration, cultural contact and the social and physical landscape of Cork City in 2004 and 2005 and in the past, comprising of forty audio interviews and resulting in six half-hour radio programmes and a book. Description An account of the resource The Cork 2005 Project was carried out and funded as part of Cork’s tenure as European Capital of Culture in 2005. Building on the theme ‘City of Culture’, the project explored the questions: ‘What is the everyday culture of Cork City?’ and ‘Who are the people of the city?’, and aimed to broaden our archival holdings to reflect the increased numbers of migrants making their home in the city. 37 ethnographic interviews were carried out with Cork residents, more than two-thirds of whom had come to Cork from elsewhere, exploring their relationship with the cultural and social landscape of the city. The interviews include accounts of family life and growing up in Argentina, Australia, Bangladesh, Canada, China, England, Germany, India, Iraq, Israel, Kurdistan, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Poland, Slovakia, South Africa Ukraine, and the United States. A six-part radio series, entitled ‘How’s it goin’, boy?’ was broadcast on Cork Campus Radio in 2005, and a book of the same name was published in 2006. You can listen to the radio programmes on our website: How's it goin', boy? Radio Series. The interviews in this collection all have a similar structure. We asked all interviewees to describe their childhood neighbourhoods and communities and to discuss their relationship with Cork city in the present day. We also discussed experiences of migrancy, first impressions and cultural contact with those who had come to Cork from elsewhere and with Corkonians who had experience of migration. Interviewees came from diverse areas including Australia, the Marsh, Nigeria, Brittany, Gurranabraher, Russia, Evergreen Street, Spain, Poland and Kurdish Iraq. The collection project was carried out from March 2004 – June 2005.

Title A name given to the resource Cork 2005 Project Subject The topic of the resource Interviewing and radio project exploring migration, cultural contact and the social and physical landscape of Cork City in 2004 and 2005 and in the past, comprising of forty audio interviews and resulting in six half-hour radio programmes and a book. Description An account of the resource The Cork 2005 Project was carried out and funded as part of Cork’s tenure as European Capital of Culture in 2005. Building on the theme ‘City of Culture’, the project explored the questions: ‘What is the everyday culture of Cork City?’ and ‘Who are the people of the city?’, and aimed to broaden our archival holdings to reflect the increased numbers of migrants making their home in the city. 37 ethnographic interviews were carried out with Cork residents, more than two-thirds of whom had come to Cork from elsewhere, exploring their relationship with the cultural and social landscape of the city. The interviews include accounts of family life and growing up in Argentina, Australia, Bangladesh, Canada, China, England, Germany, India, Iraq, Israel, Kurdistan, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Poland, Slovakia, South Africa Ukraine, and the United States. A six-part radio series, entitled ‘How’s it goin’, boy?’ was broadcast on Cork Campus Radio in 2005, and a book of the same name was published in 2006. You can listen to the radio programmes on our website: How's it goin', boy? Radio Series. The interviews in this collection all have a similar structure. We asked all interviewees to describe their childhood neighbourhoods and communities and to discuss their relationship with Cork city in the present day. We also discussed experiences of migrancy, first impressions and cultural contact with those who had come to Cork from elsewhere and with Corkonians who had experience of migration. Interviewees came from diverse areas including Australia, the Marsh, Nigeria, Brittany, Gurranabraher, Russia, Evergreen Street, Spain, Poland and Kurdish Iraq. The collection project was carried out from March 2004 – June 2005. Interviewers on the project: Jennifer Butler; Lee Cassidy; Sean Claffey; Diane Hoppe; Dolores Horgan; John Mehegan; Clíona O’Carroll; Mary O’Driscoll; Noel O’Shaughnessy: Frances Quirke.

Title A name given to the resource Cork 2005 Project Subject The topic of the resource Interviewing and radio project exploring migration, cultural contact and the social and physical landscape of Cork City in 2004 and 2005 and in the past, comprising of forty audio interviews and resulting in six half-hour radio programmes and a book. Description An account of the resource The Cork 2005 Project was carried out and funded as part of Cork’s tenure as European Capital of Culture in 2005. Building on the theme ‘City of Culture’, the project explored the questions: ‘What is the everyday culture of Cork City?’ and ‘Who are the people of the city?’, and aimed to broaden our archival holdings to reflect the increased numbers of migrants making their home in the city. 37 ethnographic interviews were carried out with Cork residents, more than two-thirds of whom had come to Cork from elsewhere, exploring their relationship with the cultural and social landscape of the city. The interviews include accounts of family life and growing up in Argentina, Australia, Bangladesh, Canada, China, England, Germany, India, Iraq, Israel, Kurdistan, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Poland, Slovakia, South Africa Ukraine, and the United States. A six-part radio series, entitled ‘How’s it goin’, boy?’ was broadcast on Cork Campus Radio in 2005, and a book of the same name was published in 2006. You can listen to the radio programmes on our website: How's it goin', boy? Radio Series. The interviews in this collection all have a similar structure. We asked all interviewees to describe their childhood neighbourhoods and communities and to discuss their relationship with Cork city in the present day. We also discussed experiences of migrancy, first impressions and cultural contact with those who had come to Cork from elsewhere and with Corkonians who had experience of migration. Interviewees came from diverse areas including Australia, the Marsh, Nigeria, Brittany, Gurranabraher, Russia, Evergreen Street, Spain, Poland and Kurdish Iraq. The collection project was carried out from March 2004 – June 2005. Interviewers on the project: Jennifer Butler; Lee Cassidy; Sean Claffey; Diane Hoppe; Dolores Horgan; John Mehegan; Clíona O’Carroll; Mary O’Driscoll; Noel O’Shaughnessy: Frances Quirke.

And thinking of your mother, em and life in the caravan, what would be a normal day for her, a kind of a daily routine? B.C.: Em, normal day, get up, more or less the same as any ones normal day. Em, just get up and put ‘em to school and I mean, she could go away for the day then, she’d be away driving. She’d come and visit my grandfather or she’d go and visit the aunts and she’d be back then just before my sister’s arrive back from school, it’s just… it’s not…em, it was much different from being in a house, it was more or less the same thing you just hadn’t got the same space, basically. C.O.: How would people deal with that, the lack of space, would there be…? B.C.: Em, well I…when I got married first I had em, moved into a caravan and, I had two kids before I moved into the house and I found the space of the house unbelievable. I keep… I kept moving things, I kept moving the beds. I’d… for a week there was never things in the same place all the wardrobes were moved, all the beds were moved, cause I wasn’t used to havin’ that kind of space, em…because we were brought … because my children were brought up in the house, at that stage my youngest was Jessica, she’s nine now but, she would be crying if I went into the bathroom because she couldn’t figure out where I was gone. The house was so big for ‘em they couldn’t understand it. Em, but it’s very, very tough in the caravan, I mean, where I lived in a caravan I would em, I’d have to walk to use one of the bathrooms in my aunts house, em, you’d walk down the hill, about a hundred yards, or to get water and you’d have to carry the water up to the caravan and you’d be washing clothes outside. Em, frosty mornings, my husband would have to get up about six to light the fire before the kids got up for school so the caravan would be heated, and I can remember waking up on morning, it was really, really frosty and the curtains were stuck to the insides of the windows, it was that cold, that the win… that the glass had actually frozen, and we’d have to peel the curtains off the inside windows and… But at the same time then you’d have the good side of it which is the freedom of, you open all the windows, you know-mean and completely clean out the caravan in one day, eh, and that’s great, as you have the freedom and if you do want to go somewhere, you have the freedom to hitch up a caravan and just go, whereas with the house, you have to have someone watching the house and you have to have certain things in place, em, but, I mean, that… that side of it is good, but it’s a tough life to live in a caravan, rearing children in a caravan is very, very tough. I mean, I mean, you’d have, in a mobile home you’d have a bedroom and then you’d have to pull out the bunks to make a double bed in the front of the caravan, I mean if you had visitors or anything by seven o’clock you’d have to pull out the bed, so the kids could go to bed and em, and then you’ve no space then because the bed is out. The bed is practically in the kitchen, so if you’re cooking or what ever you’d doin’ anything around the bed it is very tough and… storytime, the kids didn’t have the toys the wanted then either because they hadn’t got the space, like, they couldn’t have their dolls and prams like, because you had nowhere to put them. Stuff like that, so I mean once they moved into the house… their great now, they love it now, I mean I have a nine year old who is a traveller to the bone, she loves being the traveller. Eh, I’ve a twelve year old who just doesn’t want anything to do with it, she’s at the stage where… “don’t be telling the principle that I’m a traveller” and this, and then the nine year old who’ll say to the teacher, she’ll give her a picture of a house and she’ll say “do have any trailer that I can do”. Em, but, the nine year old have said to me now, I’d love to live in a trailer again. You know, she’s about the only one now, the rest of them don’t want, they don’t want that life at all, they think it’s… it’s too tough altogether, and honestly I mean the young fellow have his own room, the girls have their own bedroom and they go into it and watch television or whatever, something they couldn’t do if they were in a caravan, so… Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Cork 2005 Project Subject The topic of the resource Interviewing and radio project exploring migration, cultural contact and the social and physical landscape of Cork City in 2004 and 2005 and in the past, comprising of forty audio interviews and resulting in six half-hour radio programmes and a book. Description An account of the resource The Cork 2005 Project was carried out and funded as part of Cork’s tenure as European Capital of Culture in 2005. Building on the theme ‘City of Culture’, the project explored the questions: ‘What is the everyday culture of Cork City?’ and ‘Who are the people of the city?’, and aimed to broaden our archival holdings to reflect the increased numbers of migrants making their home in the city. 37 ethnographic interviews were carried out with Cork residents, more than two-thirds of whom had come to Cork from elsewhere, exploring their relationship with the cultural and social landscape of the city. The interviews include accounts of family life and growing up in Argentina, Australia, Bangladesh, Canada, China, England, Germany, India, Iraq, Israel, Kurdistan, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Poland, Slovakia, South Africa Ukraine, and the United States. A six-part radio series, entitled ‘How’s it goin’, boy?’ was broadcast on Cork Campus Radio in 2005, and a book of the same name was published in 2006. You can listen to the radio programmes on our website: How's it goin', boy? Radio Series. The interviews in this collection all have a similar structure. We asked all interviewees to describe their childhood neighbourhoods and communities and to discuss their relationship with Cork city in the present day. We also discussed experiences of migrancy, first impressions and cultural contact with those who had come to Cork from elsewhere and with Corkonians who had experience of migration. Interviewees came from diverse areas including Australia, the Marsh, Nigeria, Brittany, Gurranabraher, Russia, Evergreen Street, Spain, Poland and Kurdish Iraq. The collection project was carried out from March 2004 – June 2005. Interviewers on the project: Jennifer Butler; Lee Cassidy; Sean Claffey; Diane Hoppe; Dolores Horgan; John Mehegan; Clíona O’Carroll; Mary O’Driscoll; Noel O’Shaughnessy: Frances Quirke.

If you wish to access further archival material please contact CFP, folklorearchive@gmail.com F.Q.: I know yeah, em, when you em, came living here then, em had you your five children at that stage. M.O.: Yes…hmm… I had. Em, and they would … they would have sort of played along the same lines, F.Q.: Would they, yeah? M.O.: They would, because, like they… they… at that stage they would have… in the site they would have eh, been collected by bus to go to school, and taken out to school and brought back and what happened in… in the sort of eh in that, sort of a process was, they weren’t… they wouldn’t have been getting the level of education that I would have got, so I suppose, directly, thinking of the children em, I decided to move them, from… you see they were in a structure that was… that the department of Education set in place in the mid-seventies, thinking about traveller children that were going to be coming into the education system and it was the special classes for travellers and they were in that structure and then I wasn’t satisfied with that structure, so I decided to move them, but the… the response I got from the very people who were delivering the structure that the department put in place was shock because they really couldn’t con… conceive that like this is a traveller woman and she’s standing up and she’s sort of taking charge of her children and like, as I said to the principle at one stage, like, I’m sorry now, I said, but I delivered these children, I gave birth to them, so I am entitled to educate them whatever way I want to educate them, but em, like experiences like that now, would have…I would have sort of because of the… the background, the education, eh, the whole sort of comfort thing with school and stuff like that, it stood at times like that. F.Q.: It stood well to yeah, it gave ye experience, yeah. M.O.: Because it gave… it gave me the confidence to know that I could actually stand up and say, hello, I’m not satisfied with this. I… I know from experience that there’s more to education, like they would never do history, they wouldn’t do geography, eh, they wouldn’t do… a little bit of maths. Once they were able to sign for the dole, now, that was the whole em sort of em, the purpose and aim of that… that structure. Once you were able to sign for the dole that was fine. Once we teach ‘em to sign their name, grand. F.Q.: They were giving them a little but they weren’t giving the whole lot, ya. M.O.: That was it... that was it. But it… the shocking thing was that it actually came from the Department of Education. That structure actually was brought down from there and implemented here and the psychological damage that was done to these children, now I caught mine in time em, but still there was a whole psychological thing that went on for them because, I thrown them into the… the deep end in a sense by putting them to national school. The… national school that I would have gone to and would have negotiated with the teachers and the principle for support structures to be put in place for them, because, I remember the three teachers that actually took them, em, asked me to come in and meet them an’, went in and grand and… and they were in a very nice way trying to sort of tell me that the … that they were backward, because they were missin’… they were missin’ huge chunks of education. But when I explained to them why, they completely understood. You know, they weren’t backward it’s just that they were never taught any of the subjects, an’ that goes for an awful lot of traveller children that would have sort of, either gone from Cork to other parts of the country and eh, I remember reading a survey in college and it was done in the earl… the early seventies, and it… this was a government document now, and it was… it stated like that, structures should be set in place… structures and guidelines should be set in place for like… preparing for traveller children that were going to be coming into the education system. That structures and guidelines the same as for backward children should be set in place. F.Q.: God! M.O.: And I’m like reading’ that I was like, oh my God, Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Mary O’Sullivan: Travelling Community, Education, Prejudice, Subject The topic of the resource Life History; Traveling Community; Description An account of the resource Mary is a Traveller who developed a love of education, which she has tried to instil in others. She talks in detail about her experience of being a Traveller and about the lives of older generations and the history of her community. Mary was born in Skibbereen, and her family moved to Cork City when she was four years old. After living in a wagon in a lane, the family moved to a house in Ballyphehane. Her mother had 11 children, and this influenced the decision to settle down. She had a very positive experience of education from Primary school onwards. In a reverse of the usual pattern, when she got married she moved into a caravan and reared her children there. She was not happy with the education offered for her children and took them out of a scheme for Traveller children. She talks in detail about education for Travellers and describes her experience of helping adults to learn. She also helped to form the Cork Traveller Women’s Network to articulate the needs of her community. She talks about her father’s transition to settled life in a house. He continued as a tinsmith and fixer for a while. He used to tell the children ghost stories (and she mentions two examples). He played the melodeon and his favourite song was “O’Sullivan John to the Road You’ve Gone”; he also busked with Pecker Dunne. A treat for her as a child was Dripping Cake. She sees herself as a Cork person as well as a Traveller, and she has a fondness for the Shandon area and the English Market. She says that her grandmother fed passing squads of Black and Tans and that Travellers were instrumental in passing on news of their arrival in Kinsale during the War of Independence.

Title A name given to the resource Cork 2005 Project Subject The topic of the resource Interviewing and radio project exploring migration, cultural contact and the social and physical landscape of Cork City in 2004 and 2005 and in the past, comprising of forty audio interviews and resulting in six half-hour radio programmes and a book. Description An account of the resource The Cork 2005 Project was carried out and funded as part of Cork’s tenure as European Capital of Culture in 2005. Building on the theme ‘City of Culture’, the project explored the questions: ‘What is the everyday culture of Cork City?’ and ‘Who are the people of the city?’, and aimed to broaden our archival holdings to reflect the increased numbers of migrants making their home in the city. 37 ethnographic interviews were carried out with Cork residents, more than two-thirds of whom had come to Cork from elsewhere, exploring their relationship with the cultural and social landscape of the city. The interviews include accounts of family life and growing up in Argentina, Australia, Bangladesh, Canada, China, England, Germany, India, Iraq, Israel, Kurdistan, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Poland, Slovakia, South Africa Ukraine, and the United States. A six-part radio series, entitled ‘How’s it goin’, boy?’ was broadcast on Cork Campus Radio in 2005, and a book of the same name was published in 2006. You can listen to the radio programmes on our website: How's it goin', boy? Radio Series. The interviews in this collection all have a similar structure. We asked all interviewees to describe their childhood neighbourhoods and communities and to discuss their relationship with Cork city in the present day. We also discussed experiences of migrancy, first impressions and cultural contact with those who had come to Cork from elsewhere and with Corkonians who had experience of migration. Interviewees came from diverse areas including Australia, the Marsh, Nigeria, Brittany, Gurranabraher, Russia, Evergreen Street, Spain, Poland and Kurdish Iraq. The collection project was carried out from March 2004 – June 2005. Interviewers on the project: Jennifer Butler; Lee Cassidy; Sean Claffey; Diane Hoppe; Dolores Horgan; John Mehegan; Clíona O’Carroll; Mary O’Driscoll; Noel O’Shaughnessy: Frances Quirke.

If you wish to access further archival material please contact CFP, folklorearchive@gmail.com J.M.: Very good, okay. That’s a nice touch. Okay, so Vitaliy, do you have any stories about misunderstandings that might have occurred because of the difference in language or because people do things differently here? V.M.: Oh yes… it’s eh… I would say, eh… not only from my experience but from experience of other people because I’m involved as a part of eh, integrating support centre in Cork organisation name… named NASC. So, f… I’m come across lots of situation and not all of them quite funny, some of them s… would be much dramatic… dramatic situation, but I want to come back about my own experience. Eh, first thing eh which I found for myself was eh, difference in culture, when you greeting each other. In Ireland you say, “Hello, how are you?” and that’s it and people turn up and go away and you later on stayin’ and watching what’s wrong with me? Am I ugly? Am I smelly? And just feeling your self frustrated. But I mean when I grew up in the eh… environment where every single word has a meaning and now I try to explain you; we have one proverb eh… eh… word… eh… the word is like a bird, if it flew away, you won’t be able to catch it and bring it back, even if you say sorry. And I mean by this, in… in our culture, when you say to somebody “Hello,” and later ask, “How are you?”, you really expect an answer, and person might say you, “Oh, I’m good today”, and person become to telling you most eh deeply the story, for example, today I met new girlfriend, and she so nice, so on… and you tell him, “Okay, let’s take a drink and you tell me more about this thing,” and person, “no bother, let’s go.” You take sit… eh you take in the pub with him, we don’t have pubs, café, take tea or beer and person just sharing his mood and experience what he done today and you feel yourself eh… happy and you learn from that person what he done in life, you get some, eh, how do you say, benefit to yourself. Or opposite thing happen, person might tell you “Oh, awful thing happen today, I was sack from job”, or something like that, “I lost my friend”, or what ever, you say “No worries, come with me, I buy you drink”, I call all my friends, we sit together maybe you tell us your story, and maybe you’ll bring some solution. Maybe somebody come across similar situation, or somebody was in your shoes, maybe people can tell their own experience and you can learn something from those. Another story you became eh feel yourself more eh needed person, then somebody need you. Eh, but compare here to Ireland, “Hello, how are you?”, and, “Bye, bye”, and you just okay, what’s wrong. Later on my friends, Zara and Fran, just explain me this only formal greeting, don’t pay too much attention about those things, I said “fine”. Another thing which can came across again, eh in Slavic language we use words eh, thank you, please, eh but the same in a… I mean ordinary way, we use an intonation to say something. I mean if you say something like, “Ahh”, it mean eh request or please. If you say the same sentence with eh plain into… intonation like, “Ahh”, it mean like statement or you bored. If you say maybe more eh high tone like, “Arh”, would be mean like you’re angry, just leave me alone. And by intonation it can just show what you mean. Eh but here in English language you have to put everywhere this small word, ‘please’, unless you don’t do this people treat you different way. I mean if you go to the shop and say, “Can I have this?”, and forget to say “Please,” people watching you very strangely, throw you on table, take it, and so on. But later on you presume what’s wrong with me, what I did wrong? Try to rewind your sentence back a sec… ah, sorry, I forgotten to say the word, ‘Please’. And, next time when you start to learn from this thing, okay, please, please, and you start to say it in beginning, “Please can you tell me, or give me something?” Rather in our language because we do everything by intonation. I mean, m… mostly in th… situations. Or another thing about detonation eh of word, friend. Here in Ireland you call friend everybody, but in our country it’s more sacramental, more… eh more… it’s… it’s word has a more eh deep meaning. We don’t call friend everybody, in our country we have different condition, maybe I tell you my own gradation of relation between people, you can have the top of hierarchy would be the friend, eh… below the friend would be mate, or eh, colleague. After them would be person you know, eh, some fella who maybe neighbourhood living near by, or your class eh mate from long time ago, forever, forever. And this hierarchy building up by relations with people. If you just try to come eh see from perspective of philosophy, Aristotle, if I’m not mistaken, he said, “Who’s a friend is second me,” like mirror reflections. Only one or two people could be eh… thinking the same way, to treat the same way in situation like you are and his word was eh… eh proved by another eh… Iranian eh poet, about twelfth century… century, twas’ Saadi, he said, “If you had eh… if you have one friend you are happy person, if you have a two friend, everybody jealous you, if you have three or more friends you the sad person.” An explanation would be of this like that, human being has only two arms, if somebody going by the bridge, somebody eh… eh your friend suddenly be… become eh sink, you can save only two and give two of your hands, and lift them up. If there are more than two friends, you have a make a choice, who can you have save. That’s a big eh… eh, decision to have to be done. But… and that’s why I mean in our culture, the word friend has more eh, deep meaning, and we don’t call everybody friends, compare in Ireland if it’s a friend you say, “Okay, I’m friend”, but later on you become stuck in situation, and hold on why somebody call me friend, if I maybe quite opposite perspective of eh understanding reality. Maybe I’m quite different person somebody telling me friend and you become to be more, feel yourself uncomfortable because it’s big responsibility to be a friend in perspective of my understanding. You have to be eh, everywhere when your friend needs you. And not always friend have to call you and tell you, “okay, I need your help”. Sometime you have to offer this thing. Somebody telling you oh, call friend, you presume then you have to be wakey, wakey and just to expect something happen, have to be eh, give some hand to help the… the… the people. And a lot of eh, different stories like that, which would be, show in a difference eh… eh… cultures, aspects.

Title A name given to the resource Cork 2005 Project Subject The topic of the resource Interviewing and radio project exploring migration, cultural contact and the social and physical landscape of Cork City in 2004 and 2005 and in the past, comprising of forty audio interviews and resulting in six half-hour radio programmes and a book. Description An account of the resource The Cork 2005 Project was carried out and funded as part of Cork’s tenure as European Capital of Culture in 2005. Building on the theme ‘City of Culture’, the project explored the questions: ‘What is the everyday culture of Cork City?’ and ‘Who are the people of the city?’, and aimed to broaden our archival holdings to reflect the increased numbers of migrants making their home in the city. 37 ethnographic interviews were carried out with Cork residents, more than two-thirds of whom had come to Cork from elsewhere, exploring their relationship with the cultural and social landscape of the city. The interviews include accounts of family life and growing up in Argentina, Australia, Bangladesh, Canada, China, England, Germany, India, Iraq, Israel, Kurdistan, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Poland, Slovakia, South Africa Ukraine, and the United States. A six-part radio series, entitled ‘How’s it goin’, boy?’ was broadcast on Cork Campus Radio in 2005, and a book of the same name was published in 2006. You can listen to the radio programmes on our website: How's it goin', boy? Radio Series. The interviews in this collection all have a similar structure. We asked all interviewees to describe their childhood neighbourhoods and communities and to discuss their relationship with Cork city in the present day. We also discussed experiences of migrancy, first impressions and cultural contact with those who had come to Cork from elsewhere and with Corkonians who had experience of migration. Interviewees came from diverse areas including Australia, the Marsh, Nigeria, Brittany, Gurranabraher, Russia, Evergreen Street, Spain, Poland and Kurdish Iraq. The collection project was carried out from March 2004 – June 2005.

If you wish to access further archival material please contact CFP, folklorearchive@gmail.com F.Q: Yeah, em what changes now Michael would you have we’ll say seen in Cork down through the years? M.O.F: Well down through the years, like from the time, you know I mean Patrick’s Street is Patrick Street, I suppose that is probably the focal point of Cork, but I mean Cork is spread out now, I mean all of, I suppose from a ten mile radius of Cork city now is nearly an extension of Cork city, I mean the likes of em Ballincollig, Carrigaline, we spent all our childhood in Crosshaven, Crosshaven is no longer the little village now, it was always a Summer place for us – we used to go down there in June until the end of August – but I mean it is I’d say 99% of the people now in Crosshaven are living in Crosshaven. And when you have Carrigaline, I mean my God, Carrigaline is a town in itself, you know, and eh I mean I suppose that’s probably the biggest change: the way the city has expanded, you know, I mean no matter what way you go now there’s Mallow sorry . . . F.Q: Michael what would you like to see change about Cork? M.O.F: I suppose from my own point of view I suppose if we actually could get the traffic right, and eh if we could, I would like to see a complete walking area in the centre of the city: all cars free zones away from the thing; it would be fantastic for the city, but what they’re going to do about it I don’t know. Even the tunnel they’re taking the amount of cars that’s passing them by day they didn’t expect until 2007, 2008, and they said that by 2007, 2008, I’m going to have another twenty five per cent increase, so I think that everybody’s going to have to go back to nature, and the bikes and walking, get rid of the cars. To me that would be great, like if I could actually see a carbon free air, and the pollution improved in Cork city, and people would take care of the way they burn things, and that would make my job much easier.

Title A name given to the resource Michael O’Flynn: Fire Brigade; Vandalism; Change; Subject The topic of the resource Life History; Cork; Fire Brigade; Description An account of the resource Michael has worked most of his life with Cork fire brigade, a job he loves, and he describes the nature of his job, the training required, and its dangers and rewards. Michael grew up in Turner’s Cross. He works as a fireman. In the 1960s there were lots of chimney fires in tenement houses because the occupants burned whatever they could find.

Title A name given to the resource Cork 2005 Project Subject The topic of the resource Interviewing and radio project exploring migration, cultural contact and the social and physical landscape of Cork City in 2004 and 2005 and in the past, comprising of forty audio interviews and resulting in six half-hour radio programmes and a book. Description An account of the resource The Cork 2005 Project was carried out and funded as part of Cork’s tenure as European Capital of Culture in 2005. Building on the theme ‘City of Culture’, the project explored the questions: ‘What is the everyday culture of Cork City?’ and ‘Who are the people of the city?’, and aimed to broaden our archival holdings to reflect the increased numbers of migrants making their home in the city. 37 ethnographic interviews were carried out with Cork residents, more than two-thirds of whom had come to Cork from elsewhere, exploring their relationship with the cultural and social landscape of the city. The interviews include accounts of family life and growing up in Argentina, Australia, Bangladesh, Canada, China, England, Germany, India, Iraq, Israel, Kurdistan, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Poland, Slovakia, South Africa Ukraine, and the United States. A six-part radio series, entitled ‘How’s it goin’, boy?’ was broadcast on Cork Campus Radio in 2005, and a book of the same name was published in 2006. You can listen to the radio programmes on our website: How's it goin', boy? Radio Series. The interviews in this collection all have a similar structure. We asked all interviewees to describe their childhood neighbourhoods and communities and to discuss their relationship with Cork city in the present day. We also discussed experiences of migrancy, first impressions and cultural contact with those who had come to Cork from elsewhere and with Corkonians who had experience of migration. Interviewees came from diverse areas including Australia, the Marsh, Nigeria, Brittany, Gurranabraher, Russia, Evergreen Street, Spain, Poland and Kurdish Iraq. The collection project was carried out from March 2004 – June 2005.

If you wish to access further archival material please contact CFP, folklorearchive@gmail.com N.O'S: That’s Ireland. So you came to Cork, and what was your first feelings about Cork when you? M.A: I was flying for nearly fourteen, sixteen hours, I was very, very tired, so I slept for nearly twenty hours, ok then when I woke up – it was in the middle of early October – it was nice Autumn, so I went out of the house to look around (it looked very quiet) and not so many people, but friendly people, hi hello, I went for a walk, it was very enjoyable, I saw some hills, because Bangladesh is very, very flat, so I saw some hill, you know. I stayed for a few weeks near Lough, ok so I move around the Lough, I saw the swan, it was very, very enjoyable! N.O'S: You noticed the people going for strolls around that area where you were - it’s a very popular area for people strolling, what we call strolling. M.A: Yeah, ok. N.O'S: Em how did you go about making contact with others when you came first? M.A: Yeah, eh I after I first came here, after two days, then I had my first lecture, so I came to my institute (University) and then I met the new people there, yeah I introduced myself, my name and I came here to do a Phd so yeah I found that people were very friendly – many of them they asked me to go for drinks, although I don’t drink, I like to go with them, yeah I went out. N.O'S: Could you tell me a little about that experience when that happened to you? M.A: Yeah I remember one of the guys – his name was Keith probably – he asked me to go for a drink, and I said I don’t drink, but then he said it’s ok, you may not drink, but you’re always welcome. So yeah I went with them to the pub – I think it was Costigans probably, very close to work – yeah I saw that there were more people inside the pub than in the street, that it was a bit surprising, but at this moment I’m used to this. N.O'S: What can you remember about the evening? M.A: I remember one guy he got completely drunk - we had to carry him home. (Laughs).
