Bunch of us used to travel down to the grove... sorry fall in varying degrees
downhill towards clontarf picking up various vagabonds on the way. The
offie on rosemount was a blessing! Couldn't buy it ... well there were ways!
Anyone remember the crowd:- Sean Whelan, Paul McKinney, Joe McGarry,
Terry Mulcahy, Martin Daly oh and me Andy Clarke?

The name Martin Daly rings a bell, Andy. My older sister used to hang out with someone by that name. Where did he live?

Hi Andy and welcome.
Am afraid you're long after my time. I was at the "old" Grove in Mount Prospect Avenue so the names don't ring any bells.
Enjoy the site.

Yo Andy Clarke, Chanel Class of 1984?
I remember you man, you had the longest hair in our year, drove Father Corry mental. You were a brilliant artist as well if I remember right? There were a few Coolock Green lads in our year, Martin Daly and Victor Boston, Eddy Balbernie? There's a 25th Re-Union coming up soon by the way, let me know if you are the guy I think you are and I will drop you a PM.

Hiya Roundy-I forgot you went to Chanel...ha! The Corry days...

I left there owing him a fortune.
3 for discipline,Miss Ryan for RK,Spitz reading the notes...holy God what memories.
Not to mention trying to look cool at lunch time in Coolock village in front of all the virgins... (Virgo Clemence girls accross the road)
