When I am out and about driving from town to town, to village to city I love to see tall steeples striking up into the sky before I arrive and drive past that church it belongs to, It is a great sight for my eyes to see
For me it’s just a reminder of how much money and power the church had. Surrounded by poor people, yet spending so much money on massive expensive buildings, money they got from the poor people around them. Opulent waste. Lovely building though, I suppose.
People 'chose' to live in Tallaght for many different reasons but mainly because the houses in the early 70's were the cheapest houses on the market, thousands of them, all the same, you'd get lost driving around before they decided to put names on the roads!! No shops to speak of in the early days either, and a bus was like gold dust!
Springfield was a great spot growing up used to love visiting my aunts and the Squre in the 90s great memories illegal immigrant shit hole now like most of the country
At least when Ireland was extremely poor, the resources were found to house the populace
Extremely poor? Most of the world in the 1970s was far worse off.

Tallaght Dublin's South Bronx. How'd that turn out?
The complection has definitely changed a little like most of Dublin.
ive come a long way, thanks Tallaght.
A mental place to grow up in. Some great people there though.
Tallaght has come a long way when you see it in 2024.
05:32 I wonder did he get the shift))
If he did, I'd say she's buried up the back of Tymon Park..
A better Ireland 🇮🇪 😊
They seem to have country accents/neutral accents, I wonder how the subsequent generation ended up with rougher working class accents
Dude was smoking a pipe on his night out
Fast forward to 2024 and they rename Tallaght as Little Nigeria.
👍👍

A manic depressive kip (Tallaght) in a kip (Dublin) in a kip (Ireland).
Looking at life thru a 'kip' filter. The World is what you make it/how you see it.
I would say lots of emotional baggage here.
You sound like a very happy fellow😆
Move down the County to any (kip) ye like
