    I have a vague memory of seeing this in the RDS in Ballsbridge?

    I was just gonna say DannyM8 that it didn't like any room in the National Museum that I know. But those pillars behind do look like the columns supporting the mezzanine in the RDS exhibition hall. I may however just be proving that I don't spend enough time in our capital's cultural institutions :) www.flickr.com/photos/nlireland/21050077350/

    WALTER POLLOCK HAMILTON VC ... www.inistioge.ie/150/Walter_Pollock_Hamilton_VC_.html "A slightly over-life-size statue of Hamilton striding over an Afghan threatening him with a knife was produced in bronze-painted plaster by Charles Bell Birch in Dublin in around 1880. It is now on display in the National Army Museum, Chelsea, as is a plaque to him (set up in the Punjab Frontier Force Chapel, then in the sanctum crypt of St. Lukes Chapel, Chelsea)."

    Displaying this scene during the Siege of the British Residency in Kabul on September 3, 1879: "Hamilton faced the oncoming Afghan wave, and emptied his revolver into them before being overwhelmed and killed. His stand allowed his 5 surviving men to retreat inside the compound." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siege_of_the_British_Residency_in_K...

    The blue car is a Ford Cortina MK3 (1971/76)!!
    It is an "L" level with a 1300 or 1600 Kent inside.

    I'm going to be kicking myself if I can't remember where I've seen this before. The exam hall in Trinity, maybe?
  • derangedlemur said:
    Nope. That's some bloke or other.

    derangedlemur She must be somewhere. Maybe inside one of the RDS buildings?
  • derangedlemur said:
    National Library of Ireland on The Commons Not necessarily. She might have got dropped and broken, except that I'm pretty sure I've seen her somewhere. Apparently not BOI, RHK, the Customs House or Dublin Castle, though, to name but a few.
  • derangedlemur said:
    I wonder did she fetch up on some church or other?
