Thank you for doing these videos. You were ahead of the times. 7 years ago hardly anyone was filming while driving with narration, now everyone is doing it.
Hello, i stayed in Athlone ( Bower Villas) during july 84 and 85. The families (especially Mrs Julia Kiernan) who hosted me, were charming and the people very friendly. I met a group of students from Spain too and spent an unforgettable summer in Athlone. Thank you for this video that allows me to remember all this. I wish i"ll go back one day Thanks again :) (a grateful frenchman)

Bonjour, je faisais partie des accompagnateurs du groupe Nacel... une vidéo a été faite au Morrissey language center en juillet 85, pratiquement toute les classes ont été filmées... si vous y étiez en 85, je dois vous avoir sur la vidéo :)
Hello, are you french, by any chance ? and if so, any memories of the Nacel group ? (connaissiez vous des personnes du groupe Nacel en 84 85 ?) Bonne journée :)
Have of athlone is geographically situated in Co Roscommon and the other half in Co Westmeath, and the same , half and half between Connaught and Leinster.
They should have stopped at Tony Maguires for a pint 1 42 mind you he did not open till 9pm one of the great old night bars in athlone rip Tony shhhhhhh keep the noise down
why is the town not called Lewinsfordtown, the correct name in english. in irish, of course, it is called Ballyblawlewin. not luan but LEWIN. TWO SYLLABLES. lew-in. as in Lewis!!
