Accurate reference. Miss 2 turns. Trigger is still going strong in a
taxidermic sort of way.

I was worried about Demon taking my account off me. Any of you could
have added it in.....
I don't remember any character in "OFAH" called 'Hilarious'. Was that in
one of the early ones when Uncle Albert was Grandad and Rodney wasn't
married to that ironing board?
NO...SHE in fact was one of Del Boys early girlfriends. 'Hillary
Arass'
you MUST remember her!!;)
Mike Warren.
Are the Del Boys anything like the Bevin Boys? I know that latter were
devotees of Bev Bevin, late of the Electric Lighthouse Family. Are the
Del Boys perhaps the disciples of that Scottish-Italian wideboy Del
Amitri?
Well their South African father Del Monte runs that fruit packing company.

We need a new base to work from. uk.misc in the newsgroups line is a

He was the Lone Ranger's injun sidekick.

an unarmed HORSE is still an upright HORSE
No, Tonto was the Lone Ranger Sidekick. I think Trigger was Roy Roger's
horse and Silver was the Lone Ranger's horse. Hiho Silver, away!!

I think you're getting confused. Tonto Lane was a popular 50s/60s TV cowboy
competing with the likes of Champion The Wonder Horse[1], The Frisco Kid
and Mr Ed. Trigger was the name of Roy Roger's dog.

Yeah, but what was the name of the Sheriff in Four Feather Falls, and
what powers did each of the magic feathers give him?

Trigger was Roy Rogers horse
His dog (a german shepherd) was named Bullet
(If anyone cares, Dale Evan's horse was named Buttermilk.)
Tonto was the Lone Ranger's Sidekick - the dude who called Lone "Kemosabe"
(forgive me if the spelling is incorrect.) I think Tonto's horse was called
Scout.
