I recently bought a set of VHS tapes on Ebay and on one of them were these clips of a Portuguese family’s trip to Dublin in 2003. I’ve edited most of it down but there’s about 30 minutes of Dublin 20 years ago.


I found an old collection of VHS tapes of Dublin in 2003!

  2. I feel like late 90s and early 00s was peak times. A great time to grow up.

    Even the summers off school felt long and warmer.

  3. That’s great, thanks for that. Was living in Dublin at that time, before it got too expensive and I had to move!

  4. Beautiful. And the city has only gotten more beautiful.

  5. How did you get them digitised? Any recommendations? I have 10 or so I need to get done but the only places I’ve seen online seem really expensive.

  7. I just got 16 hours of 90s VHS tapes digitized. I’ve tons of footage of Dublin and the rest of the country

    Might put it together and put it here too! I never get tired of seeing this type of footage

  8. The era of my teenage years. I spent too much time on those poxy City Swift buses.

  9. Great song! Yes, pre great financial crisis times were good. Nice footage too, would love to see more.

  10. I knew what the type of music would be before I turned the sound on

  11. r/Irelandvoice “Wow, that was 20 years ago. Life was better back then.”

  14. What’s sad is that it looks exactly the same, why not have SOME exciting modern architecture in this backwater? 🤬😑

  15. Looks exactly like now, apart from the vehicles which look ancient!

  17. It’s definitely nostalgic to see those old Dublin buses. Thanks for uploading.
