Dubin's anti-drugs wars

Great new article in The Irish Times by Patrick Freyne below. And to think I lived around the corner from the Ballybough flats for three years in the mid-to-late 80's when I was a kid! My road was officially in Drumcondra (according to the house title deeds) but most people from that region I believe saw the road and estate as being part of Ballybough.

I was oblivious to what was going on about drugs while living there, although I have no older brothers or older sisters and went to school in St. Pats in Drumcondra when I lived there which was a good bit away from Ballybough when you're a kid and I moved out of the area when I was 9 just at the end of 3rd class in primary.
