Well, it seems that the "Not Just Ned" Irish exhibition currently on in Canberra is NOT going to Dublin afterall!
From the article:
National Museum of Australia director Andrew Sayers, in a letter to the Irish Echo, said that while it had been hoped that a version of the exhibition be brought to Ireland, “that is sadly no longer possible”.
The Irish Echo understands that Ireland’s current economic woes is one of several reasons blamed for the decision.

As I had noted in an earlier post, Ned's armour was not going to be included anyway! Not sure if they had planned to send any of the other suits of armour or not. Now the point is moot!
If anything changes between now and then I will keep you posted!
WELCOME TO ELEVEN MILE CREEK. Thanks for visiting us. We hope to use this blog to bring news, views, nuggets and musings, some serious, some lighthearted, but all to do with all things associated with Ned Kelly.
