Very sorry to hear Geordie gent died in 2004 RIP .
He was my best friend throughout the fifties the last time I seen Geordie was at his brother roys funeral in 1981

Marty, there were Dobbin's in Clonduff. i think they moved to Finaghy in the early '70's.   Was Jim from that family?

I think that is my family, they were from the Short Strand, moved to Clonduff and then to Finaghy in the 70s (my family home).

My uncle Jim Dobbin does live out Greenisland way and my father is Joe (Paddy) Dobbin, a joiner.

Joe was a fine joiner indeed. Ask him does he remember building the DJ booth in St.Mary Euphrasia' youth club.   

[DaddyPobbin]

No doubt he does, anytime I mention a place he said he built it or knew the guy that did. I'll certainly ask him when I see him next.
