Someone picked me up a series of 1916 press cuttings from the English papers of the day at Christmas. These two are great. Some of you may have seen the images before, but for those who haven’t, look at the man just casually observing the situation in the first, while in the second we have a few true Dubs out for a quick buck before the smoke settles. We’d all have done it too.
In the rubble and watching trouble.

My great great granny who was a resident of Summerhill died from pneumonia after being out “watching” the looting in 1916.
