Hallo Paddywhack,

getting back to the original item that was posted on the thread,

Its a homemade jobby, this would have never have

been worn on a uniform, since the ribbons are purely commemorative

for an ex soldier, either of the Regulars or Reserve Defence Forces.

Nice to see all the same.

Just to confirm that Cyril Wall is closing up his shop. Hes been open for years; I remember being in there as a kid, but hes going to call it a day before the end of January.

well he says hes semi retiring so he might well stil be round!but yeah the recession is starting to hit everyone in dublin!! theres only a guy in georges street shopping arcade left and he only does a tiny amount of medals! thing i have noticed is that the prices at the fairs have been going up but the numbers going to the fairs are down!!!!!
