.WaltonsMusic is marking 100 years in business, but one family member wasn't sure they'd get here.

"I've been in the business for over 45 years, and I genuinely didn't think we'd get there."But you never think of it - you know why people don't take out pensions when they're young because they never think they're going to be old".He says the idea for the business came to his grandfather when he was in a prisoner of war camp during the War of Independence.

"When I was kid hanging around Frederick Street, where the first shop which he set up in 1922 was, I remember the buses for the showbands being outside."Before that, I remember it was accordions were big - first of all violins - then accordions, then it was acoustic guitars, then electric guitars.Waltons Blanchardstown store in Dublin.

And he says the business has been through all manner of ups and downs, as his grandfather recounted to him.
