What's a fact about Ireland that sounds made up? Join Random I'll go first: Ballyfermot College of Further Education students have had 13 academy award nominations and 1 winner (Richard Baneham who's won it 3 times) 438

St Assumpta Church around the corner. It’s like if you put a gun to the head of a Soviet architect and ordered them to design a church.

Aerial shot of Ballyfermot high street, the school is across the road. It looks like Mike Leigh would reject it during a location reccy as “a bit too grim”

Much love for my deeply dysfunctional but wildly successful Alma Mater…
