 Maurice O'Connell e-mailed Home Truths about his family's 'school run' when he was growing up in Dublin.
Maurice and his 4 brothers attended the school where his father was a teacher. Between 1978 and 1984, when his father's car wasn't roadworthy, they'd take the bus but usually all 6 of them would pile into his dad's Fiat 600 to drive the 15 miles or so to school!
From the BBC studios in Cornwall he told Paul Heiney how they managed such a tight squeeze.
