Thanks to

Lisa Moylett, Suzie Doore, Francine Toon, Imogen Olsen, Alice Laurent, Jessica Hische and Katie Davison.

Bronwen Salter-Murison, for designing and maintaining the Dandy Gilver website.

Sharron McColl, Dorothy Hall and Jeanette MacMillan of the Local History Dept in the Carnegie Library, Dunfermline and library user James Fraser, for information about old Dunfermline.

Louise Kelly, for unflagging support and unsettling craftwork.

And Neil.

One of the differences between academia and fiction-writing that I cherish most is no longer having to record and then cite all my sources, but I must mention the insanely detailed and unexpectedly riveting Lee E Gray, (2002), From Ascending Rooms to Express Elevators: A History of the Passenger Elevator in the Nineteenth Century (Mobile, Ala: Elevator World, Inc.), without which Aitkens’ lift would still be a mystery to me.
