            Switzers did a fair good display.....but my spies tell me your pic is Downtown Los Angeles 21 November 1951 Cos....a closer look at the kids etc kinda don't quite add up to Dublin. Is that reading "HILTON" or LTD ?.

                      The mind is everything. What you think you become.

                            Yip.... think the first Hilton in UK was 1963....Ireland much later imo.... So with the garb on yer man and the well fed and groomed kids in the pic....it dont resemble 1951 Dublin.... but I've had fun checkin it all out.

                              • Unveiled August 1907, to great controversy .....Fusiliers Arch.....more than 200 names of Irish Fusiliers killed in Boer War......Some called it The Traitors Gate.
                                The Arch is designed along the lines of the Arch of Titus in Rome.
                                I think it looks great where it is.....a fitting tribute to brave Irishmen.
