    It's survived reasonably well: goo.gl/maps/t2gVSmbNfHSPAMAk6

    Looks like the glass canopy for the Everyman Palace has moved a few doors down the street: www.google.ie/maps/@51.9014819,-8.4680146,3a,65y,245.27h,...

    Cork Baptist Church is dated 1892, and Victoria Buildings beside it was built in 1898 according to the NIAH, so our photo is later

    Lots of dating info on previous visits ... Reverse view - And the Metropole Hotel (1897+) on the left -
  • John Spooner said:
    beachcomber australia I've no comment on today's photo, but reading the comments on the top one (reverse view) has reacquainted me with Mdlle Alma and her amazing electric globes (including her 'gyrations', 'and 'evolutions').

King Street, Sydney

    This row of buildings is featured in one of the plague album pictures, but several years earlier than this photo. Several businesses have changed, the Caledonian Hotel at left has a new awning, and the cable tram has been replaced by electricity as well as turning the corner to finish at Erskine Street. So about 1905-1910? Plague Album No.1, no.55 - acms.sl.nsw.gov.au/album/ItemViewer.aspx?itemid=823637&am...

    National Library of Ireland on The Commons beachcomber australia He was up there looking for a real Dog

    beachcomber australia National Library of Ireland on The Commons I spotted him thanks to your note and what I wonder is how did he manage it? I remember when linesmen of various persuasions put on special steel shoes with a large spiked hook at the toe that went around the pole. They then put a large leather belt around their waists and around the pole and they climbed up one step at a time shifting the belt up with each step as this prevented them from falling backwards. The thing is that the pole in this case look like it is make of concrete and there is no ladder in evidence. Similarly there is no belt in sight to hold him onto the darned thing! Health and safety how are ye?

    DannyM8 Niice one Danny, I was just thinking that after all our labours of last week solving puzzles and generally entertaining the denizens of Library Towers and all she gives you is an imitation dog for our troubles. Tsktsk!
