Paul O'Farrell Can't thank you enough for this one, Paul! It had been annoying me that we didn't know where it was. Found a lovely snippet on Waterford in the Seaman's Handbook for Shore Leave from 1919:
Sailors' Homes, etc. British and Foreign Sailors' Society, David Beatty, Sailors' Rest, 9 Henrietta Street (No board or lodging, but Recreation Rooms, Bath Rooms, Coffee Bar, free Literature. Sailors are sent to Ossory Hotel, Gladstone St., two shillings nightly, free Library and amusements); Soldiers' and Sailors' Home, Adelphi Terrace (Board and lodging).

Peter Denton Absolutely! Would imagine it was a "dry" event, unless the tea was "fortified"... :)

It's a cracker of a shot with tremendous detail in it. Obviously taken from a very stable base given the clarity. The Pissoir is indeed different but not too different really though it looks as though it can only accomodate two and with a decent degree of seperation! I can't see any dogs yet but I am sure that somebody will;-)
