It was in the mid seventies. The school was small and familiar, teachers and students mixed together and we had great fun.
I am glad it has improved so much, but as the song goes "I remember Dublin School in the rare old times."
Great memories.

Wham Bam Grand Slam - Ireland’s Rugby Glory 2009.
On Saturday March 21st the Irish Rugby Team beat Wales 15-17 to achieve ‘The Grand Slam’ for the first time since 1948 in what proved to be arguably the most nail-biting closing minutes of a match this season.
A missed penalty by Wales in the closing minutes and a converted drop-goal by Ireland’s fly-half Ronan O’Gara was the final nail in the Welsh coffin, and the celebrations began. An estimated 18,000 Irish supporters took to the streets of Dublin to congratulate The National Rugby Team on their return from Cardiff. Dublin's Deputy Lord Mayor Emer Costello hosted the players, coaches, IRFU officials, family members and friends at a civic reception in the Mansion House on Dawson Street.
In rugby union, a ‘Grand Slam’ occurs when one team in the Six Nations Championship beats all the others during one year's competition or when a touring side from one of the Southern Hemisphere nations plays and defeats all four Home Nations sides in a single tour. The Six Nations Championship is made up of Ireland, England, Scotland, Wales, France and Italy. England have won The Grand Slam more than any other team – a staggering 12 times, followed by Wales 10, France 8, Scotland 3 and Ireland twice. Italy has yet to win a Grand Slam.
