Of Course as a cynic - and one who has been "near missed" by an IRA bomb (Cannon St 1980), I wonder.

Yes I think it is very feasable that the IRA are still keeping files on potential 'Targets' - By the same token I would think it completetly irresponsible if the British Army, and the Gardai were not doing the same.

A further question in my mind is why the Provo's would bother marking the movements of Conservative Politicians.

But then I put my tintenitus down to the IRA bomb at Brighton. I had 'Bar Duty' at the Labour Club at Whitstable the following day - it was a question of blast damage - virtually every member of the club who came in that night was going "Blast !!! They missed her !
