Fr. Bede's Movies

Michael Powell sent me a CD containing Fr. Bede's 8mm movies from Barrow Hills and St. Georges. These are highly compressed in MP4 format, and consequently suffer from limited definition, especially with moving images. Nevertheless they bring back memories from those far off days, and it is interesting to have this record of our schooldays.
