This is a wee section I added in the mid 90s to reflect two families who I ultuimately met through the Internet. Andy & Sally McRory and their friends the Marianos. This resulted in me making a number of visits to America, and most of them making a number of visits to the UK and Ireland.

My Friends The Marianos
Sally (see below) introduced me to her friend Carla in 1995, then in 1998 (I think!) Carla's sister Jana was studying in London and decided to come up to visit me and my family even though she didn't know any of us - a bit of a brave gamble for her but it seems to have paid off!
Our two families are now in close contact and my Mum is a good friend of Jana's mum Nancy.

My Friends Andy & Sally
None of my American trips would have happened if it wasn't for my good friends Andy & Sally McRory. I met Andy through CompuServe's UK Forum in around 1994 where he was looking for information about his family's roots in Scotland - we became email pals.
He visited Scotland and we all had a fantastic time showing him around our wee country - he must have been impressed because he brought his wife Sally back with him in May 96 and we did it all again - even the ceilidh - he then returned in 1997 to do research for a book and again with Sally in 1999 when we toured Scotland and Ireland together. They've not been back since, but I do hope to see them again someday soon!
