And - [https://www.flickr.com/photos/old_parliament_house/3229931567/in/set-72157613034703192/] [For some unknown reason I find these celebration arches uninteresting and hideous!]

  I've seen quite a few photographs of this arch/colonnade in Martin Place. But this is the first time I've been able to read the legend , "Long LIfe And Happiness To Lord And Lady Hopetoun." Thanks.

• Momentous Start said:

  Fantastic photo! An almost identical view can be seen here.

• BobMeade said:

  moadoph - Thanks. I must have been imagining that I had not been able to read the legend on the photo at your corner of Flickr. Or maybe I was just too drunk that day.
