Ta.

Haven't read Larson yet - good idea. I can do nasty bits.

And I think I'll try the Medical Technician thing - Mum used to be a despatcher for the Ambulance Service. I heard plenty of anecdotes that I was really too young to deal with, because I was the only one awake when she came home (Dad also worked shifts and my siblings slept like the dead - I'd hear her come in and get up to make her a cup of tea).

I value a good British book, some of my favourite authors (Kate Atkinson, Ian Banks, Rankin et al) write about Scotland, but I will check that site before I go.
