To Ron Irvine - Greetings to Scotland and wish I were there - it is waaay too hot here in Southern California and 6 months to go before any rain! I would suggest that you try a query to FANA, since you have an ethnic German name - they are well-established for more than 50 years, reasonable, and honest. This little publication goes to more than 13,000 Germanic entities across Europe and to every Germanic society worth its salt elsewhere in the world as well. Perhaps some others in this group will find it helpful too - good for brick walls.

When they receive your payment they will publish your query in the next edition and send you a copy of it. I have used it with great success and do not hesitate to recommend it. Good luck!

Thanks and as you say maybe helpful to others. With Global warming ,in Scotland we have been getting very comfortable weather throughout the year but today and yesterday we have had it cold for mid June and it is blowing a Gale but dry and light cloud. Thanks for the interest. I am 70 and have to move fast to get the puzzle solved.
