Are you still in Belfast, Alison? I moved from Dundonald to Portrush in 1977 so I'm not really a far down. I know about Some Handlin' - Rae MacIntyre who oversaw its production (she was Principal of the school at Ballyrashane) is an acquaintance. Even if you don't come form north Antrim, everybody knows everybody else.
