6 + postage? how much do I owe you ?

Need your snail mail again. See pm.

Incidentally, my father's family history contains the snippet that 'we' came second at Culloden. Unfortunately not much more detail, and oral history largely.

Yes, runner up is pretty good for Scottish teams in international competitions.

(I must confess that I interpreted "came second" originally as being one of the Scots on the Government side - ie not losing but still ending up getting screwed.)

First loser I think is more accurate...
