ah right, I was wondering why it was in Retro and not over in Education or Parenting. makes sense now.

I was there back in summer 95 I think. Still remember the games of soccer we had there.

Yeah it was a good laugh. Is Mac Dara still there? I went in 01,02 and 03. The squash courts were a good laugh and headin into the village. It was funny. It was a tiny village with 6 pubs.

I was there in 98 and 99 or 97 and 98. (either going into 5th and 6th, or going into 6th and 1st year.)

Yes MacDara Toibín still works as manager of the Irish college. Brilliant place to go to! Especially for the summer love! ha

Hi ellie 12, welcome to boards.ie and All Things Retro. Just a note to say there is a general sitewide policy on the use of textspeak, it is not tolerated on any forum.
It irks the other people to read shorthand it as you can see. Thanks for your input though, if you can manage to try and type properly for the rest of your posts, that would be swell
