| These four Dawn Redwood stand on the south side of Carey Street behind the Royal Courts of Justice. "On Carey Street" is a euphemism for being bankrupt or in debt, and this apparantly came about because the U.K. bankruptcy court is located in this street. These four Dawns certainly seem to be prospering despite this association. |
