    Haughey looks pleased...
  • Swordscookie said:
    Peter, I thought that Haughey handled that very well at the time, he is quite deadpan here but he spoke and acted very magnanimously. It really is one of those that all us snappers would love to have taken!

    Nice Photo ( back then ) Glad she won. Most likely a good President of a great Land.
  • Sheba78 said:
    As a twelve year old girl, at the time, I was so happy she won. The hard-hearted grumpy old cynic that I am now would say "but what difference does it make - it's only a ceremonial role." At the time though she seemed so vibrant and optimistic compared to all the old grey men in grey suits. It was definitely the first time I took any interest in politics. So thanks NLI, for putting me in touch with my inner idealist if only for a moment. And thanks Mrs Robinson.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Sheba78 Yes, if this hadn't been a November shot, I could have called it "Here's to you, Mrs Robinson"! :) And you should always bring your inner idealist out for a walk every now and then...

    Road a railway viewpoint there may be interesting things here. Does that not show the former sidings to Ballsbridge with a train on it? And was not site of the Dublin and Kingston Railway's original "engine hospital", before move to Canal Street, on the other side of the main line just to the right of the junction? The river will be the Dodder, described by Bergin as "Dublin's River", the railway bridge over it being destroyed in a storm in November 1834 just before it opened. Now there's Facebook(Meta) here with weird green walls or something. ( I've not cross checked anything I'm rambling on about).😇
