Yeah I do - a french fella called Patrice.... the dirty little fecker shoved his tongue down my neck....I was all of 12... nearly died.  Went off to Kilkenny the next day for the summer... and that's where I met Michael Morrisey - my first real boyfriend and guess what we went out for about 3 years for every summer holiday and we never kissed apart from a peck on the cheek..... as pure as the driven snow I am.....

Elbow definatly was'nt posh can vouch for that.

First kiss boyfriend Mick Nangle local club song Rolling Stones Daddy You're A Fool To Cry

Still remember it now

Remember having sale of works in your garden and selling all the broken and rubbish toys you owned and beano and wizard and chips comics and claiming the money was going to charity .....but then running off to the shops and buying a bag of tayto crisps for 4p and a bar of cadburys chocolate for 8p...ahhhhh those were the good ol days!!!

And then when they cleaned and tidyed it up the lads use to put up a swing in the trees beside the tennis club. Here is another did anyone join either of the summer project I think Elbow was the POSH one in beaumont and Mix-it in Donnycarney the mad lads one

Sorry to anyone who tried to read this post earlier the grammer and spelling was woeful. Reading it today it sounded like an uneducated drunk wrote it

Oh sale of works on in the Garden do I remember that.... No I never done that. I still have some of my old toys. My Action man jeep Helicopter.... Oh my Lego... Always wanted a BMX bike but was never allowed to get one. Took one of a skip there a few months back in great condition during the summer I am going to clean it up and fix it for my son.... I know I am a cheap skate

Lol@elbow yeah I went to the elbeau(spell)(I think) one in my youth...lol

I recall when there were no houses behind Elmmount Ave it was all fields that belonged to the School then they built the rest of elmmount we could see cows in the field behind our house and the lads working the fields

When we were young my parents use to threaten us if we were bold we would be sent to artane school for the bold children it worked ffs i recall a day she held a letter up saying it was from the school and she only had to reply to it to get us taken away....lol

Funny how it worked i use the same tatics on my little one only i say I'll send you to Mrs Fox's god knows where i found that name but she thinks its where bold children go and it works!

I can look out my Mums window and see rockfield park,I never hung around there mind but my younger sister did by the trees with the swings

I couldn't think of the correct spelling of it ,Elbeau but it was spelt something like that. Which end of the Ave were you on Whitehall end or Donnycarney... Know a few people from around there... I am around on the road still... 

No I wasn't but I think I have an idea who you are second name begins with G ??? 

I don't know her... But do you know who I am referring to ???

Blonde hair good looking there was three sisters one older and a younger one... Don't know which ones of the sisters I fancied lol
