"You won't get anywhere with Keith in a month of Sundays. "
I really don't expect to Steve - you can't feed information into closed minds
I considered leaving this pair to stew in their own juice until I worked out what I had gained from this thread.
It's helped me to put together, check and articulate what I have always sknown abot Ireland, adjust it and correct it where it has been wrong and add to it, mainly from revisiting books I haven't read for years
Keith doesn't read books - he told us so, Teribus never quotes from anything, books or the web, or , if he does, he won't tell us what for fear we will find him out in telling porkies.
None of this is for their benefit, it's for mine and anybody who wishes to join me on the two-way-street of information sharing.
