Grove Pictures?

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

Okay..I've had a quick look through the forums and I can't see this anywhere..so I was wondering..

Would people be interested in putting up old pics of themselves at the
grove in St. Pauls..or the original in Belgrove I suppose. Maybe do it
as a seperate thread or something? I know we have at least one pic that
I know of in the Grove..back in the day when I was skinny..she still
is..

I bet there are loads of old pics out there...I know they showed glimpses of a few on the Documentary....

Anyway..just a thought...adios for now peeps!!

	It always makes me sad when I see my (young) full head of hair and compare it to my (old) thinning long hair but I s'pose thats life...having said that, I like the idea very much HD

	Okay...well I'm not familiar with how pics are posted here..if it's like other boards I assume you have to upload to a hosting site ..like Photobucket..and link to it here... So... I'll root out that old pic for the hell of it and scan and upload and get it started... Just hope we're not the only ones though...

	Just came across a thread from back in May when DocMartin tried to get something similar going! Is she still around? I notice that nobody else ever did post a pic as well... Well I have a free night tonightso I'm gonna root out that old pic and stick it up here and any others I can find...and lets see if we can't persuade a few others to share their pictorial memories...hehehe!!

	Hi I'm a newbie....no doubt there's lots after documentary. I'm a Grover from 86 - 89 (though still appeared in 90, 91 occasionally) I'd love to see old Photos....I know I have some myself I could dig out. My burning question since the documentary is on a similar wave....is there anywhere where those in the photos on the documentary are identified....I recognise a few, but the hair not to mention plastic bags make it a bit difficult to be sure of some others.

	Hey Doc..great!!..I promise you wont be the only one this time...if I have to go through every single photo album in our house...and there's a lot..but I know that pic is there...and it would have been early 80's...I'm sure we have a few others as well... Don't worry..we can keep badgering everyone else till they cough up too....

	Be kinda fun actually..cos usually there are other background people in these pics..hard not to be with a crowd anyway. So we could have fun with people trying to spot people they know in the background too...

	I think it was around 1990....we were all "Old Heads" there by then so it was ok to be seen taking photos. I think we had all gone back for a "Reunion"....we'd only just started going to Bruxelles and Mc Gonagles etc Sigh...them were the days.

	Cool Pic Esthalon.. Like wise I don't recognise the faces ..but I'm from a slghtly older vintage too..but the funny thing is..it could just as easily HAVE been from my time...is nice to see that the longhairs we're still holding sway even up into the 90's :-)

	Okay..after much thumbing through hundreds and hundreds of dog-eared snaps...finally found the one and only pic we have that was taken at the Grove. It was taken in Dec' 1982 and I guess it proves we didn't have to visit the compound..hehehe!! Anybody recognise any of the people around us?

Have a couple of other pics from around the same time...but not in the Grove itself...one in The Neptune..and the other in The Summit in Howth..all with Grovey people...maybe I'll stick 'em up later
