February 28.

1973.

Charismatic Fine Gael Leader ties the knot with old Labour lion.

Oh, how we rejoiced.

Street parties, bunting and barm brack with a sixpenny in the middle.

All in black and white.

Ma allowed us to stay up to see the look on old Mr. De Valera’s face.

It gave us nightmares for years.
