Yeah, well, you just put those jaundiced views into either the 'usual banter' or the myopic 'the English are to blame for everything' boxes and forget about them.

Anyone else following this youngster's progress? Would appear he's in the marina at Craobh at the moment. Any of you come across him on your travels?

Been following him on http://share.findmespot.com/shared/face ... xsdJz14UnB
