Aye, Rapaire. They wis frae Czechoslovakia and they wis all completely daft. Their name wis "Yrtnevoc" wi' a wee daft symbol o'er the final "c" tae mak the "ch" sound. Tae fit in be'ter in England ma fither tairned the surname backwards tae read "Coventry", but the English wis nae fooled by that, sae he cam tae Canada (The True North Strong and Free) tae start afresh in a land where onyone can lairn tae be a grrreat actor or even becam prime minister ane day. (witness: William Shatner's career and Jean Chretien, etc...)
