Not a caption but a memory - As children in the early 50s, whenever we asked for expensive presents for Xmas or Birthdays, our Father would always say, "Oh aye, when the ship comes up Dean Street" It was years before we realised why those presents were never forthcoming!

I remember "when you see a boat sail up Dean Street" being a common saying and having spent many years working on Dean Street I have witnessed on two separate occasions a boat going up Dean Street needless to say they were not being sailed more carried on the back of large flatbed trucks

Interestingly, it wasn't inside of the city borders when this picture was created.

Hi, this photo is being discussed in one of the projects in the Flickr Commons group, and we'd love to have this added to the group pool!

The Queensland Bottle Tree is a stunning, easy-to-grow specimen tree native to Queensland, Australia. The Queensland Bottle Tree is unique to Australia, although it has been successfully transplanted to areas such as southern California in the United States. Its primary growing region, as should come as no surprise given the name, is in Queensland, Australia, and New South Wales. Native to the stretch of Australia between northern New South Wales and the inland part of Queensland, the Queensland Bottle Tree is semi-deciduous. While it retains its leaves through the winter, it drops them in the spring, making way for a sprinkling of creamy yellow flowers. These delicate flowers eventually flutter their way down to the ground, resulting in a colorful carpet around the tree’s base. Source: www.designertrees.com.au/trees/bottle-trees/
