Just like to say hello to everybody and would love to hear from anybody that knows me. Born at 120 Bray Road and lived there until 1961 was a really great place and community am back in touch with quite a few people thanks to Brian Reynolds.
Thanks to Tom for bothering to show me the ropes.
Great site.

Hi Marie
I also went thru St Christophers Infants and Juniors and then onto All Hallows (it had only just opened). Remember Mr McCabe very well. He was my form teacher. He was very keen on throwing the blackboard duster (wooden) for the smallest infraction, making you kneel in the corner and he was always dozing off. I seem to remember he had a dodgy or wooden leg. At All Hallows my best memories were of Sister Peters (headmistress), she was so kind, and Sister Monica (French Teacher) and Miss Mercer (Drama and Music) My best mates were Kerris, Julie, Marie and Pat. I had a dreadful reputation for talking too much. Still the same at age 66yrs!!
