What do you recall from 1970 - fifty years ago? Personal or political memories, does anything stand out from half a century ago? It was quite a busy year for me, the year my first child was born, leaving Zambia where I had been working and bringing my husband to meet my family for the first time. I was 7 months pregnant…

Vague memory of two defectors from either Soviet Russia or Cuba landing in Ireland and claiming asylum and then a month or so later wishing to go back from where they came from as things were so bad here.

Cuba was the only country, that people wanted to leave, that had a first port of entry in Ireland. So for a long time, that was the only source of refugees in Ireland.
