thanks willie for your answer - here's another question just to sort
out the problem. who is the present us president?

Duh..........

It wouldn't be George W Bush would it?

Remember, I'm Scottish, and given that most US presidents like to
advertise the fact that they've got Irish ancestry , we feel a bit
left out :)

Spot on - well I won't hold your ancestry against you - long live brave heart.
Many thanks for the help old boy
