Audience Comments
I thought some people found it
hard to get their questions in! It provoked thought – and maybe controversy?
Great! “Ye cannae eat a flag” I loved that! More of such speakers please!
Very interesting talk about close
links between Ireland and Uk – analysis and examples. Could have been longer!
An informative and, at times,
witty overview of the history of Ireland – and Irish in Britain!
Very interesting talk on the people
and culture of Ireland. I also thought it was very nice to have people playing
Irish music before the event began as people were arriving.
I found it really interesting.
Much of what was said reflected my experience of being a 2nd

Wonderful! I learnt a lot – a
great speaker – eloquent, knowledgeable and enthusiastic.
Enjoyable, informative, wish it
was longer
This event was excellent,
informative and very enlightening.
Excellent. Very interesting.
Interesting and positive.
A stimulating and informative
talk on a subject little discussed!

A very interesting topic but sadly
it was too difficult to hear the speaker as the acoustics in the New Headingley
Club are so poor and, as the audience was seated in a semi circle, the soft
voice could not carry. A microphone would have helped – also if the speaker has
slowed down his delivery. A text book example of how not to give an
otherwise fascinating talk.
I found the lecture very
interesting, and one of real significance for the Irish in Leeds, as well as a
general audience. I thought it was
rather short, however and that was disappointing (20 minutes) as the speaker
was clearly very knowledgeable. But I
just discovered that there was a problem with trains
Very interesting, especially liked the GAA anecdote and the Terry
Wogan ref and the list of people of Irish extraction. Also would like more
discussion about … ??
