A special one for me this week, I got the honour of interviewing my Dad, John. Dad grew up in a Bar and Grocery on the Main St., played in Barrach street, the Temp Hall, schooled in the Boys school on Piggot street before going to the De La Salle's where the County Council has its offices now. He moved to board in Garbally in 3rd year and spent 3 years there before returning to Loughrea. He loved hurling, dogs and horse racing. 

These are his memories
