sundrive road

Yes I remember it, played there many moons ago, I used to go to school with Matt Rogers. also played in the one on Drimnach road.

My uncle owned the snooker hall on sundrive road and the castle as well , he owned the bread shop Dempseys also. We lived over the bread shop that was next door to the snooker hall for over 28 years and i grew up with Matty Rogers being in our house every day. I was not allowed to go into the snooker hall as my father always said it was a sign of a miss spent youth .I have great memories of Sundrive Road.There was two Matty Rogers , father and son , the father was the one that was in our house.

No Jakey did not know your Late friend but do you remembera Mrs fox who used to teach piano on sundrive road. It was half a crown a lesson, I had about five lessons, all I learned were the difference between the black notes and the white notes. It was a complete waste of money

Remember that well, my sister went there for piano lessons, it would have been the late 60s, early 70s
