Belfast Christmas Past

From the BBC news website today comes this archive film of Christmas in Belfast in 1978.

Thankfully much has changed in the thirty years since this report, and the wish for peace did comeā€”even if it did take more than 20 years from the time this question was asked of the poor frisked folk in the city streets.

Northern Ireland has been so much luckier than all the areas of the world that still waits for peace.


Grace and peace to you, our friends. Happy Christmas.
