    Actually I used to play football with Hector. That was a few years ago though.

    You would see Tommy about though every now and then but obviously he's often away touring, etc.

    A friend of a friend lives in Adolf Hitlers old apartment , can get more famous than that.

    She got it after he was evicted for not paying his rent.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,192 ✭✭✭TarfHead


    Larry Mullen's house backs out onto the beach we use in Sutton. The last time I was there this year, he was out walking the dog. Don't know who looker meaner, him ,or the bulldog :D !

    Gay Byrne's house (or the one he lived in for years) overlooks the compound John McColgan/Moya Doherty have buit on Howth. Great detail of it on Microsoft Live Maps, and Larry Mullen's too.

    I live in Malahide. Cream of the crop here I tell ya - Ronan Keating, Cecilia Ahern, Nicky from Westlife....ooooh tis exciting stuff :pac: Also Brendan Gleeson, Director and Delorentos live here.

    See Bertie around a fair bit with his daughters. Adam Clayton and The Edge grew up here.

    Often see "celebs" about but no one I would find overly exciting.

    When I lived in Ireland I lived in Dalkey. One night I went out for dinner in the local Italian and Bone, Pat Kenny, Sinead O'Connor and that director neil something were eating there (all separately)

    I also saw Colin Farrell around the place as his gf lives in Dalkey and you would see Eddie Irvine in his flash cars every so often too.

    I was never very over-awed though, they're just normal people going about their business.
