    Very true fincutter ! I mind been told by a fella along wi jack about him shootin away IN the Boyd channel, belfast lough....Wires gan oot horizontally fae the gallows, headline floats bubblin the surface....20 minutes for 100 odd boxes of spurdogs which had to be cut out from several lifts and away for portpatrick wi sparks flyin oot the exhaust ..... genius with madness !
