...One of my mates is descended from the tallest ever Irish Man - a chap called Cotter, who lived here in Bristol for a while and made a living painting ceilings ....

...or descended from Cotters relatives at least. There is a book about him called "The Irish Giant" (sorry, no details).

The mental picture of a very tall man earning a living painting ceilings has made me giggle.

Thanks, Wiggy.
