Hi Ian

Yes you're right regarding the youngsters with Close. Their testimonies were that Close said 'a quarter to seven' and Close said he said 'between 6.30 and a quarter to seven.' I have always thought of the irony of the police/Prosecution trying to get the time back as much as possible. If Close wouldn't have called at No 29 they would have been pushing the time
forward in order to give Wallace adequate time to have carried the killing out etc.
As with regards any subsequent relationships between the kids I'm not sure... Maybe Close would have said that he was 'advised' by the police to stick to his guns so to speak, and wasn't necessarily calling them liars but they might have heard it wrong (which I don't believe they did!)
