Interesting symbolic aspects of humour here....... Findlater - I wonder if that was that a detective agency.

That telephone number was a big hit at the time being so easy to remember. They were known as "The Sixes" and indeed they were a good company to call. Great to see the old cars on display, the Ford Zodiac just out of shot and I can't remember the model of the Vauxhall your driver is leaning on

Swordscookie And they were still called The Sixes or All the Sixes long after the 7 got added at the start of the number in the 1970s, Sean, I think.

In the background you can see the big MH for the Mater Hospital Pools which is very appropriate given the court case at the moment on the Govt. cutting off funding to the private lotteries wiped out by the National Lottery. There was a lot of work going on at the bank on Parnell St./Cavendish Row which has featured in some great discussions on here.

It can't be too hard to find that ecclesiastical looking building on the right. I'll guess somewhere round Thomas St to start with, though no doubt Beaner will beat me to the exact location.

What an unnatural pose! Poor Linda O'Reilly looks like a store-window dummy, with her stiletto stuck in the muck. Is that a genuine 'beehive' hairdo?
