Dolly Flynn was recorded in the nursing home in Rush and her stories were articulate and focused. She recalled thatched homes in the village, drawing the seaweed from the strand, the fishing traditions in the village, and the tragedy of her father’s untimely death due to an accident in a horse-drawn cart when Dolly was only one year old. She spoke of her work as a cook for the nuns in Lucan. Other subjects discussed were the Dublin market and the characters there, the travelling tailors, the threshing and the tinkers.
