nice multiplay peter
& interesting also to find mentioned in passing here some
changes that were evidently made to delu also
subsequent to 1948
& which may thus bear on brendans original question too
tho i still cant imagine what such changes might have involved
unless we have previously discussed & forgotten these too
perhaps at vianden or in connection with some islands etc
but anyway they stand a good chance of being relevant if ever
found
& finally what a goose it was to see here also that the
palindromic river aa is also a tidal river & a border river as well
& thus goes both ways many times over
