Her folks must have been a bit well-to-do!!...They had a clown at the party I was at, making all sorts of animals with those twisty balloons! I was lucky to get a meal out of McDs for my birthday off my folks!

I can rest at ease now I know she's alive and well in Termonfeckin. I'm up there in the next few weeks playing Seapoint Golf Club, I might try and look her up!

I know I am the same we had pass the parcel with newspaper for wrapping

Poor me

Glad to put your mind at ease! Seapoint sure you are only around the corner from her!

Have a good weekend

I lost my best friend in a hotel fire in Bundoran when we were 6...a few years ago I went to the hotel where she died on her anniversary and put a rose at the seafront just by the hotel, I try and do it annually...recently I decided to try and find her grave and did so via boards...I spoke to her uncle last weekend and will be seeing where she is buried shortly...will never have closure (I think of her every day) but it felt really nice talking to someone who knew her so well...

I didn't like anyone from my childhood that much. They were ok, nothing to write home about...

I watched a programme on that fire at some stage over the last couple of years, very sad. So nice that you still think of her everyday.

Thanks, I saw that too...her mummy and daddy and 3 year old brother also died in that fire, I recently found out that her parents were only 31 when they died. RIP Deirdre, your mummy, daddy and baby brother.

I remember the story well from the programme and it deeply upset me at the time, she was lucky to have such a loyal friend for her shortened life.

That's really sad. Lord have mercy on her and her family.
