hi everyone..
I've just started a project about Ireland's developement from poor to wealthy since 1930.. And I have problems finding information about it..
Does any of you Irish (or others??) have any idea where I might be able to find something??


I'm going to watch Angela's Ashes and analyse it, telling about their life conditions.. So I'm gonna need another text or something, that tells about the life today.. Do you know any??

I hope you might be able to help me.. 'cause I'm kinda lost.. and it's an exam project.. uuh.. lol :P

Yeah, it is.. Saw it in school 3 years ago..
It's just a bit stupid.. I wanted to buy the movie, but it's not sold in Denmark anymore.. So I need to buy it in English, if I really want it.. a bit annoying.. lol :P
So I've asked our locan libary to get it home for me, which they would..

Yeah.. exactly..
But I've been seeing Angela's Ashes, and they get help from the church.. So I've written that, and said it was probably what they did, because it's a novel written by Frank McCourt himself.. sooo.. Hopefully my teachers and external examiner think it's alright!! :)

It's actually an examination, which we can be (un)lucky enough to get to come to an oral examination in.. I kinda hope we do, 'cause that means I only have 6 exams this summer, instead of 7.. :lol:
