  • Mikemahonmemories-Min.Pdf
    This little book is my memories of the 1980s. My school days and then getting into radio here in Dublin. 1980 The 1980s began with me in my last year of primary school at St. Benildus school on the Upper Kilmacud Road. It was a happy and fun time and I had enjoyed my time at primary school, and especially the great long summer and Christmas holidays. The school day was pretty good too, finishing at just half two! And at lunchtimes the boys from the primary school would also be able to go over to the St Benildus secondary school, which had a "tuck shop" selling sweets and treats like giant gobstoppers and sherbet dips. I lived with my parents and my grandmother just down the road from the school, and I was able to walk to it in about 10 minutes. It was in a nice quiet suburban part of south Dublin, about 7 miles from the centre of the city between Dundrum and Stillorgan. In 6th class our teacher was one of the de la Salle brothers. They were the religious order that ran the school and had a big monastery on the site. Our teacher Brother John was a really nice guy, and he enjoyed teaching and encouraged us all to learn about the subjects. He also organized some great five-a-side football competitions in the school yard. I had some good classmates in 6th class and it was a nice school to be going to. The friends i remember from that class were Conor Moran, Daragh Hare, Kevin Johnson, Richard Barry and Cathal Lunny.
