    Thank you for doing these videos. You were ahead of the times. 7 years ago hardly anyone was filming while driving with narration, now everyone is doing it.

    Hello, i stayed in Athlone ( Bower Villas) during july 84 and 85. The families (especially Mrs Julia Kiernan) who hosted me, were charming and the people very friendly. I met a group of students from Spain too and spent an unforgettable summer in Athlone. Thank you for this video that allows me to remember all this. I wish i"ll go back one day Thanks again :) (a grateful frenchman)

    Bonjour, je faisais partie des accompagnateurs du groupe Nacel... une vidéo a été faite au Morrissey language center en juillet 85, pratiquement toute les classes ont été filmées... si vous y étiez en 85, je dois vous avoir sur la vidéo :)
