Just wondering are there many people from Ireland here ☘️. I live in Dublin, originally born in London and lived there till age 14. Dad lives in Pagham and visit there every summer and do a stint in Butlins in Bognor Regis with the kids. Both parents Irish.

Hello Shazza59 I was born in Carlow, lived there till I was 4 then we moved to Manchester UK lived there until 10 yrs ago when I moved out to Southern Spain. Don't visit Carlow very much now as most of family gone on now. Spent quite a time in Dublin over the years believe they have moved the status of Molly Malone used to love singing that that so g as a kid with my Da, or should I say wailing through it!!.

I am sure there will be plenty of others in the forum from the Emerald Isle, Cead Mile Failte

Ooh Southern Spain must be lovely. My husband went to college in Carlow and still has friends living there so we do the odd visit, lovely little town there. Love Dublin but, of course, the weather isn’t that kind to us.

Hi snow54flake, have never been to Omagh. It’s nice to visit home town once a year. I rarely get back to visit London but go to West Sussex instead as that is where my Dad lives. I also have a sister living in Maidstone, Kent.
