    I can see my house :p No seriously I can

    Has to be early to mid 90's going by the pharmacy in bridge St, going from colour of my old house I'd say about 1992/1993.

    He seemed to have hung out in West Street an awful lot also Cosy Inn in Mill Street

    Few things incorrectly stated in it, Asa Chandler didn't create the receipt for Coca Cola he merely helped found the company,

    1992 I think. This defo looks early 1990s anyhow. Hard to believe Callan without a bypass all those years ago. Do people in Callan really ahve an accent like Tipp? Wouldn't be used to that at all :D

    Oh we got our bypass alright...

    ...BUT AT WHAT PRICE!

    Wow, there are a lot of pubs in Callan really. Special shout out to Keogh's Model Bakery, keepin' it real, they are.

    Nicer than that Pat the Baker sh!te, and as for Old Mister Brennan, he can go fk himself.

    The price was idiots now throw their cars anywhere in the town causing mayhem,

    Yep alot less these days though, hard to run a pub these days as the whole social aspect has changed a fair bit

    There's a late 1990 car beside the metropole @ 7:30 in the video so it's 1991 at the earliest... car doesn't look too fresh either so more likely 92+

    Wow, look at Callan. Filthy narrow streets, dank disgusting buildings, layabouts drinking in pubs during the day, smoking in pubs, filthy moaning farmers...at a guess I'd say 2010?
