Back to the "fly". The Oxford English Dictionary gives a 17th C.meaning as "a familiar demon" (i.e. a live-in demon rather than one we all know about!). This is all very well but it means the story is geven away at the very beginning.

p.s. The word was later used for a "printer's devil", by association. Hence the word "flyer".

I'll comne back to Maighread's recordings another time - if John Moulden doesn't oblige with a nice comprehensive listing. That said - I seem to remember hearing recently that she has her first solo CD in production at the moment.
