Meet Mark and Scott. They are both excellent youth workers. Mark is also a great musician and plays guitar.

Mark is a post graduate student at Edinburgh, while Scott teaches college in Belfast. Mark is a very valued friend, but this blip is mainly about Scott..

Scott hails from the State of Idaho and was born in the town of Coeur d'Alene. French fur traders gave it its name - and there are several theories as to what it means. One possible translation is "sharp-hearted" or "shrewd".

But Scott is the opposite of all that - he is one of the biggest-hearted and generous-hearted people I know. If you are thinking of moving house, Scott's your man. He can carry a wardrobe under one arm.

As a historian, his main published work to date is a book entitled "Cromwell and Scotland". We tend to forget that Oliver invaded and occupied Scotland. It's a fascinating read.
