Sandymount castle
Yep it sure was Damntheweather...this getting out of the bed on the other side is no doing me any good..because the wall is in the way,,,, Yes indeed Dublin Castle is a bit bigger than that one. If anyone has photos of the schools in the 40s 50s also as I do have a few of the packed strand but still looking for any photos that people may have or any old photos of Sandymount or old cine film Of the strand which I will transfer to DVD free and return....As I now have a bit more time on my hands I want to up grade a film we done about 5/6 years ago and add a bit more on to it. Thanks again for the help. SB

The Tower
Again a very nice pic, have not seen this one before...It must be around 1956 as the tower has the sign on it ( Tower Cafe ) also a black board outside which one of my best pals done for Mr Gibbins his name was Tony Keagan he lived just across the road from the tower, he passed away only last year he was a fantastic artist as a young boy I still remember what it said...'come on in for a warming drink,....
A little sup will warm you up and make yours a pleasant evening...I think it was a glass of wine or port which was sold in the tower that they wanted you to sup
Thank you for such nice memories.

The tower
Morning Womblemum..can,t say I remember the Bradshaw family..but then again I left Ireland in1959 and came back 1971 so I know I missed a lot in that time.
I still drive my Wife nuts with telling her who lived in all the houses as we walk the Strand and also what we did as kids on the strand and what a fantastic time we had overall.
I will be over in the Transport Museum in Howth today...next week they have an open day. Come on over if you can it could be fun...SB
