Where did you all originally come from in your Grove days?

Not your exact address !!!

I was originally from Celtic Park.

Post code Whitehall, parish of Donnycarney and on maps as Beaumont.

Hi Biker Pat,

 I lived most of my life in Artane, over near the old Kilmore Road side. If you lived in Celtic Park, did you know Chris McMorrow, Alan Scott or David Malin? They all lived in or around that vicitity.

"We are the manor girls, we wear our hair in curls, we wear our father's shirts instead of a skirt - we neither smoke nor drink that's what the teachers think and when it comes to boys we treat them like toys" - - oops - -how's that for a sad memory.

Yeah - she was with me at the reunion on Sunday - gave me great sl*gging for creating history and asking Cecil to dance - - we've also been at the last 3 reunions - really great - - did you go to school with her? - - she is also a member on the forum so you should post a note to her.

I did go to school with her, I'm from St.Annes also.  She used to pal with Ita, Orla, Joan - we were all pals and hung around the park back in the day.  I'll post a note to her indeed.

Good for you asking Cecil to dance! Did he accept?

Hi Biker Pat,

that is amazing! I went out with Chris many moons ago and when I was recently at home in Dublin I met him for coffee!He has not changed a bit and still looks as young as he did 20 years ago. Wish I had the secret of that!Wink I keep in contact with him via email and believe or not but I did send this site to him after I first discovered it and to the best of my knowledge he has not signed up!!! He is probably too busy making millions on his art. He is very talented at art and I am very honored to say that I still have the birthday card that he made me for my 21st birthday, so I am the proud owner of an Original McMorrow Masterpiece!!!!

    You probably know Tyrone Arkins then and maybe my cousin Thomas (Thosie) Fitzsimons...he was motorbike obsessed to put it mildly!

PS. Did you reside in Brookwood Ave as I recall he had a brother who lived there. The funny thing is when you brought up your 'iddentity crisis' issues over your address, the first person I thought of was Christopher as it must indeed be hereditary as he suffered from a similar disposition back then. He claimed that he lived in Beaumont and I always thought that was Donnycarney. In the strictest of confidence I even consulted the phone directory to see who was right!!!!!! I hope that he has more clarity of mind as to his where abouts out in Celbridge!!!!!

Hi Ann,

What a small world.

Ah, them young looks run in the family Wink

I knew Tyrone but haven't seen him in years.

No, I don't live in Brookwood. I hung out there a lot.

Hi Biker Pat

certainly is a small world and getting smaller via la minute!

Yes Chris sent me his website...very nice....he even sent me the info on how I could do a website for myself but apparently I am not as computer savy as your brother! As we speak I am up (a none corporal) ladder doing a mural in my office with the sounds blasting dot com!!!
