Yes, 'm still getting my daily fix at the Cafe.

I think Dunbar derives from Dunleer or DĂșn Laoghaire. (did even rebels call it 'Kingstown'?) That would explain why they needed a car, a bicycle wouldn't do.

Which reminds me, Harry-o, of the verse I left on the "Daisy" chain on 6 Nov Click here - but I swear I didn't realise...!

I think if you give a thread a 'pedestrian' title such as 'Johnson's Motor Car', you'll have a better chance of attracting people like Mick Bracken and Martin Ryan who might have some answers for you.

good tidings,

Philippa
