    Nice work Typhoon, I love the whole 'now and then' thing and seeing how areas once were and how much, or in fact, how little has changed over the years. Have you thought of making a video on the theme? They'd come out very well. Take a look at the Carlow forum under 'Carlow vids?', I've made three videos on the topic.

    Excellent videos Croppy I had thought about it but i'd take a bit more time

    the hardest part is locating the old photos

    all history is local

    These are great, although I did think the church was collapsing in the first one!

    Amazing how little has changed.
