Do you remember I was interviewed for a little video about the Howth tram? Here is the video. My first appearance is at about .32 and another bit further on.

I’ve just watched from your Facebook link, it’s so interesting! Great that there’s all that old film available and so lovely to see you!

The clip of Dublin, is that the street where the Post Office is and where the airport buses go from? O’Connell St??

A very evocative video, and you're quite the "movie star", Osc! :lol:

The aerial shot of Howth harbour brought back memories of the day visit we made their back in the 1990's whilst on a weekend break in Dublin. I think the hotel we stayed at in O'Connell Street (Upper) has since been demolished?

Full marks to the guys who restored Tram no.9 - that must have been quite a task.

That must have been the Royal Dublin Hotel.
