Three Coins in a Fountain was a hit song in 1954. It was the theme song of a movie having the same name.

Three coins in a fountain
Each one seeking happiness
Thrown by three hopeful lovers
Which one will the fountain bless


Where am I?

Hi Don!
I think its Rome. Is it the 'Treffi Fountain' or a similar name? I'm not quite sure. I certainly loved the film although it seems rather a long time since I saw it!!
Cheers Gillian

Hi Don
You are in Rome, at the "Trevi fountain." I'm too young to remember the film. Is that you in foreground of photo?

JFS

P.S Keep up the good work, but why no more Chatters taking part?

Very Happy Hiya Gillian & JFS - oh you two did well!! I think you're both correct - but will see what Don reckons when he comes on later.

Will be sending out a September Newsletter some time during the next few days, to all our Members about recent changes & new stuff - including the Beagle Log, etc etc. Just seem to have had to spend so much time re-organising since mattycat & chellin both left their roles as moderators. So just give me a bit more time & will hopefully "entice" more of our members into Social Club Chat & Beagle Log good stuff!!

See you later aligators.

Congradulations Gillian and JFS.

The picture is of the Trevi Fountain in Rome. See the following link for a bit more detail. http://www.aviewoncities.com/rome/trevi.htm

The movie Three Coins in the Fountain, a 1954 film, tells the story of three American girls looking for romance in Rome. It stars Clifton Webb, Dorothy McGuire, Jean Peters, Louis Jourdan, Maggie McNamara and Rossano Brazzi. I recall seeing the film on TV many, many years ago; as for the actors, I don’t recall any of them.

Yes JFS, that fine looking fellow in the foreground is me - a lifetime ago.
