Hey marty1953 , yeah i know the delaney clan now ( it was trying to link them to st ants that threw me ) they used to live in tullyard way beside arlene boyce and then moved to carnamena , one of the houses that linked carnamena to the football pitch which is now the robinson centre. Do you remember the st ants soccer team playing there on saturday mornings ? the goalposts and nets were left in marks alley.....some of the team i remember were Joe Dowds , Pat Copeland , Kevin Maguire and Billy McAdorey. Great memories Marcas , the dander to templemore swimmers was like a day out.....i remember the swimming coach was a man with steel gray hair in a beebop style called Bobby Currie i think.
Meeting up with Michael and Eugene Quigley at 7 In Robinsons on Thurs night. Bit short notice i know but couldnt be helped. So if anybody fancies a beer will see you there.
Hi everyone. Not from this parish...my wife did and I see her brother Gabriel McGuigan mentioned.I am trying to find an old mate Eddie Murray. The Murrays lived on the Woodstock and he had a heap of sisters and a brother Dermot.. Anyone remember them or know their whereabouts.Happy Christmas everyone.
Thanks Olelad. Unfortunately I have been corrected (again ) by my wife. My mate Eddie Murray lived on the Castlereagh Road and not the Woodstock.However I was right about my wifes brother Gabriel being in your class
i remember the name murray been mentioned at the reunion. that murray lived in castlereagh st ? as for gabriel, wots hes at these days ? maybe you could show him this thread and maybe put afew names onto the class reg ? which were alway trying to update.
I wonder would Eddie be the same person? If you get any further details ....let me know.I am living in New Zealand now so only see Gabriel from time to time on returns. He is living in England now but will mention the thread to him..
ill try and get more info for you m8. the mcguigans if memory serves me right lived on the right hand side of ravenhill ave coming of the woodstock onto it ? not sure if he went to gusties or not ? were did they move to from ravenhill ave ?
Dead right re Ravenhill....and yes he went to Augustines. They moved to Newtownards (Ards) before England.
