No worries mate - thanks anyway.

No Davie Ross?

The other one will drive me nuts - there's some apocryphal story about him turning up at a 5-a-side game, not revealing his name (or the fact that he was a professional player) and blowing everyone away. Definitely Scottish, definitely pre-World War I, other than that ...
