Where exactly is Clontarf Park?

And PH, you're very welcome to the site. Am sure you'll get a response to your post.

I was from Celtic Park.

There is a thread here that I set up, re "where you all come from". I'll try and dif it up and maybe they'll be some info for you.

Welcome to the site Parkhead - yes there are a few from Clontarf Park - the ones I know would probably be older than you.  Enjoy the site and have fun.

Jeez, I never heard of "Clontarf Park" and walked down Vernon Ave. to the Sheds all the time. All my girlfriends were from Clontarf too.

Yeah, Yeah, I actually had girlfriends. Hard to believe, but true.. 

Just look at me avatar, what girl could resist. And I was even better looking back then.
