Don't have a clue as to what is there now Karen, I've lived in the States for the past 33yrs. It was, as you were going up Gerard St, on the right hand side, just after the bend in the rd.

It was such a long time ago Gerard, the only name I remember working there with my Mam, was Margaret Cooper, I remember her,only because we were childhood friends.. Will I see you at the Reunion?
