Vin and I were taught "Down by the Sally Gardens" by Mrs Crowe and Mrs O'Sullivan at South Bank St. Peters Napier St.Shoool at the age of 7 Years. (1954 -ish) Also "Oh the days of the Kerry Piper" , and " With her one eye on the pot and the other up he chimney" - and more. Innocent days and as kids we were treated well I am a happily married 60 + person and so is Vin. I understand problems which have emerged within the Catholic Church, but thinking back , Mrs Crowe and Mrs O'Sullivan would have probably liked (in our time) to be referred to, as Ms.Crowe and Ms. O'Sullivan. Life was different so then to now. God Bless 'em for teaching us so wonderful music in our formative years - and you can stick rap where you feel fit !!!
