	I found the interview this morning on BBC, with Vincent Nichols the Archbishop of Westminster (soon to be made a Cardinal), interesting, especially his comments about only 1% of the benefit budget being subject to fraud and abuse - and that it would be nice if only about 1% of the rhetoric from politicians and the media about the benefit system were about fraud and abuse of the system - alas these words will fall on deaf ears. I don't think Vincent Nichols is one of Iain Duncan Smith's favourite church leaders :-D
	Researching: I am researching the Wotherspoon family from the Old/New Monkland areas of Scotland, some moved to the Leslie and Kelty areas of Fife and I'm having problems linking the Wotherspoon's from Leslie and the Wotherspoon's from Kelty. I am also researching the Clusker family from Co. Meath in Ireland who moved to West Lothian and from there to Fife............"Vita non est vivere sed valere vita est"
