Good News on Restoration of Hilton Memorial
UPDATE 2008 Even better news, on the 30th Anniversary, 13th February, 2008, they restored the plaque to a stele or pillar back on the footpath. With all my changes and troubles this year I haven't been on that part of George St, so I only saw it in December 2008 while I was doing Christmas shopping, without a camera. I'll try to put up a picture of it.
