One on the thing's I remember from my youth, the blackouts. During the winter time the ESB cut power to whole areas on the north side, Dublin 7, 2, 1 we're always getting cut. We never knew why. 😊☘️
My Grandad was fond of a drink in the Stags Head, he died in 1971 before I was born, I had many a drinking session in there as well and not forgetting Keogh's, Grogan's, The International and The Long Hall between the early 90's - late 2010's, good old Dublin boozers' 🤠
Wonderful pieces of film. One piece of misinformation which needs addressing - Wellington never said "Just because you are born in a stable does not make you a horse". It is an urban myth and unfair on the great man and leader. In fact, it was said about him by Daniel O'Connell in a court case. Wellington was as Irish as the next man, I contend.
My wife passed away this year and we got engaged and bought the ring in Mc Dowells happy ring house ,I miss her so much and love the video
The Pint of Guinness looks fabulous 😀
I hated the zoo back then, always made me cry. Haven't fir over 30 years
Great find. Some things haven't changed, but many things have.
