Ally's Athboy

Being a young girl living in a small country town all my life definitely made me the non traditional different kind of person I am today, and I'm only 20 (today).

I've lived in Athboy Co. Meath all my life. Athboy is a small town where everybody knows each other, sometimes that can be a good thing, sometimes bad. Everyone knows your business, but there's always someone looking out for you.
Also I will be talking to people about what its like to live in Athboy, their different stories and to unique people who believe Athboy is a very special place, as do I.

I am in Liberties College in Dublin, Studying Creative Media Production. I live in Athboy with my mother and father, Alice and Austin and two big brothers Edwin and Keith. I've been singing since the age of 4, and when I released my second CD I raised €500 for teenline Ireland and €200 to my local No Name! Club, it was all because of the brilliant support from all the people in Athboy.

In my blog, I will be telling stories from Athboy in the 1950's right up to today. From raising funds for Pieta House in Limerick for Prevention of Suicide, to the biggest ladies clothes shop in Leinster 'Mc Elhinneys' closing down due to the resession, to raising $90,000 american dollars for a very well known loving father and fantastic country singer who was suffering from a brain tumour. I also have many more wonderful stories from all the different personalities from Athboy that will show what kind of brilliant place it really is.
