Sounds like a right dodgy geezer to me. What sort of shirt is that? And I bet he's never played football before. He probably thinks it's soccer. Oh well, I suppose a fairy tale file could be useful for smoothing your nails - or escaping from prison. Sounds like an eejit to me all the same.
Would anyone have an address for the Donagh Patrick National School?
I am looking for a black and white group photograph in which my mother (Nellie Walsh) appears. This would have been taken in 1947.
Many thanks.
