    3. Raymond, I have no suggestions, though this made interesting reading. I would observe that the only other Mournians on the face of the earth are either in Hamilton, Scotland, or in England. I see you live in Scotland. I hope that you and your bride of many years enjoyed your New Years' Eve anniversary, cold and snowy or not.
