They look like pleasant lads and very smart. People talk about how girls of today look so different from in times gone by, with ripped jeans instead of smart outfits, but the same applies to men. They took a pride back then and it shows.

Mi mam she got from neighbours,
the gold of Prescott street , neither matched the other , but found a way to meet .
Wish I, wish I , could I ?
Mi mam she tried her best ,
but the covers of our neighbours
still feel like cashmere, above the rest ..

Pw, I believe Kevan is an Irish spelling of Kevin, and Cavan is yet another spelling of the same name.

The Irish gaelic version of Kevin is Caoimhin,and the version of Keiran is Cairan.
