    What an unexpected bonus. I'll second Heming's question "What tartan is that?"

    If my memory serves me right, isn't there a Firefighters memorial statue in a square close to there?

    Actually, I believe the tartan may be specifically woven for them - but I could be wrong.

    There's an old newspaper article about it them here:

    And you're right BEEDEE, there is a nice memorial statue a few block away.
