Hello, London, this is a third generation Scotch-Irishman calling,  whose
grandpapa came from Belfast.  My mother crossed the pond 32 times, over
16 summers, to her father's place in Port Ballantrae. I'll never forget
the wonderfully mysterous sound of "This is London calling" on our radio,
and hearing the King on Christmas Day. Was stationed near Crewe in 1944
and crossed the Channel on Christmas Eve that year, some hours (thank
heaven) behind the Leopoldville, which was torpedoed near Cherbourg about
6 PM that evening. That betrays my age, I guess!  So, how are you?
