  1. Travelling Folk

    Share Share Post
    Travelling folk or "Shulers", as they are called in this district, sometimes call to our house.
    These people have been travelling round the country for the last 40 or 50 years.
    They sell small wares such as: safety-pins, needles, hair-slides, pencils, collar-studs and many other small but useful articles.
