    Been there, done that. My father in law was cutting, my wife was in her bare feet in the hole tossing the turfs out and my mother in law and I were futting the turf. We were liberally doused with old perfume to keep the midges at bay. We travelled to the bog in a split screen Morris Minor.

    beachcomber australia Donegal Carpets closed in 1987, according to your Wikipedia article, but...
    Local Donegal people petitioned the government to help re-open them in 1997 and in 1999 they were making carpets again for places such as Áras an Uachtaráin, Dublin Castle and the University of Notre Dame.
