People, get ready…
ith the town clearly feeling a bit under the Christmas sweater right now, local filmmaker Jason Gaffney decided to do
something about it.
Namely make a short film, catching Greystones’ quiet before the festive storm.
And he’s done a pretty good job, as you’ll see below. Greystones is stretching and yawning, its people living in suspended animation, not quite sure when this never-ending lockdown limbo will truly lift. And yet, there are glimmers of glitter and hope out there.
Which is what young Jason set out to catch.
“This is a visual poem that attempts to capture the atmosphere of Greystones in the run-up to Christmas,” explains the Heathervue lad. “The sparse imagery is my attempt to reference how society has changed since 2019, while at the same time hinting at the calm before the Holiday storm.
Jason breaks Miss Piggy’s heart

Paul, just a note to say how impressed i am with what you have created here with the Greystones Guide. It just keeps on getting better. I like how you keep up with us ex pats or locals that we all grew up with. The place has changed but its still a huge part of life for many of us. Keep up the stellar work and dont ever lose the good humour that you imbue your articles with. I get it!!,best regards. Niall
