    You can always count on Americans to do the right thing - after they've tried everything else.

    Quite a nice cultured scouse accent Shy is that for the benefit of your American friends. Where I come from its YERWO. In one of your previous threds you wrote about your shop in Gramby St and the cobblers shop, I knew the chap in the cobblers he was an old friend of mine Charlie Riely aka (Ike). At that time I managed the Vine Hotel on the corner of Vine and Faulkner streets. That was in the early sixtys.

    I have Welsh ancestors going back to the 1800s. I have an ancestor from Overton in what was then Flintshire, probably another that later married into that family who was called Jones and an ancestor from Laugharne in South Wales.
