A life of crime writing - Author Graham Hurley

A life of crime writing - Author Graham Hurley

He'd never read detective fiction before he embarked on his first book about Portsmouth CID inspector Joe Faraday, yet a decade on he is a best-selling crime novelist. Jill Belcher meets Graham Hurley

Graham Hurley has a great affection for Portsmouth. He loved living here for 30 years while working as a director and producer with Southern TV and the city has featured as a major character in his best-selling crime novels.
Hurley feels he owes Portsmouth a huge debt and is happy to repay it in any way he can. We meet just hours before he hosts an evening at the Historic Dockyard in support of the Mary Rose Trust and obviously this warm relationship with Pompey is reciprocated three years ago, to his surprise and delight, the University of Portsmouth awarded him an honorary doctorate.

As seen on TV
Its been a colourful journey from Clacton-on-Sea in Essex, where he was born 64 years ago, via a scholarship to a London boarding school and Cambridge University, to his present success as creator of decent, bird-watching DI Joe Faraday and maverick, disgraced cop Paul Winter, who is keener on birds of the non-feathered sort.
Intending always to be a novelist, Hurley eventually changed direction in the face of mounting rejection slips and turned to television, where he swiftly rose through Southern TV to become director of many highly successful and networked ITV documentaries, including the unforgettable Better Dead, about the effects of drugs.
I thought Southsea was wonderful and in 1977 we spotted an old house for sale on the seafront, with views out over Southsea Common, the Solent and the Isle of Wight. It was gorgeous and we stayed in Portsmouth for the best part of 30 years, he says as he snatches a quick lunch at Portsmouth City Museum.
Its amazing how abrupt the divide between country and city is. Go to the top of Portsdown Hill and look one way and theres the story writ large about exactly how Pompey came into being the geography, Portsmouth Harbour, Langstone Harbour, Old Portsmouth, the Isle of Wight, the Solent and the Channel.
Look the other way and youd be astonished to think youve got a city of 350,000 behind you. I cant think of any other city in the country like that.
There are some staggeringly beautiful pieces of Hampshire and my wife, Lin, and I love walking in the countryside and visiting the New Forest where probably my best buddy, Anthony Howard, known for the Country Ways series, lives.

The write time
When TVS lost its franchise, Hurley decided it was the ideal opportunity to give being a full-time author another chance.
He found success with international thrillers but, while lunching with his publishers, Orion, to discuss his third book for them, they gave him the shattering news that they were not planning to publish it. Instead the company, which has enjoyed enormous international success with Ian Rankins Edinburgh-set Rebus novels, suggested he do the same for Portsmouth and Hurley found himself agreeing to produce a series of three.
Unfamiliar with the genre and determined to produce original work, he decided against reading other crime novelists and instead drew on his documentary-making experience with real life issues. It was all down, he thought, to meticulous research.
Portsmouth is a gift for the working novelist, he says. Its an island, its insular, its very busy, very crowded and very inward-looking. It is un-cursed by money, there are wealthier enclaves like Craneswater and Old Portsmouth, but they are never more than a stones throw from areas of serious deprivation.
He had a weekly opinion column in the Portsmouth News, a widening range of contacts and, after the publication of the first Faraday novel, Turnstone, was invited by a senior CID officer to shadow a murder case. So developed a close relationship with the police, which has reflected changes in their methods and culture over the 10 years since the series began.
Gary Cable, a DS on the drugs squad, was one of his most helpful contacts, while Roly Dumont, a former uniformed superintendent in charge of the north of the city, provided Faradays birding expertise.
If in 30 years time you want to find out what life was like in the first decade of the 21st century then I think these books reflect it, Hurley explains. Ive always made a case from my own point of view that Pompey is a small island within the larger island of the UK and to that degree it is a microcosm.

Real life
Faraday is a good cop, but he is slowly filling with despair as the series goes on and its a despair thats at once about his own relationships, about the loss of his son, about what he sees around him, about a growing disgust for peoples motivations and the holes they dig for themselves and how needy they are and how graceless. It is a turning into himself, so here is a man in an insular city who is turning in on himself. Hes twice isolated. The question is did Pompey make Faraday what he is? You could make a case for saying yes it did.
While Faraday has touched the hearts of readers (hes particularly loved in France), Paul Winter, Faradays former colleague who has gone over to the dark side as fixer for Portsmouth drug baron and would-be politician Bazza Mackenzie, has won his own following as the series has developed.
Theres even a Spare Paul Winter club in Queensland, Australia, chuckles Hurley. After each book I get emails from these guys saying if you let that man fall under a bus well come back to haunt you.
The 11th in the series, Borrowed Light, which was published in November, came out of a visit Hurley and Lin made at Christmas 2008 to Damascus.
The 12th and final book of the series, Happy Days, is already written and finished. Lin and I went to the Balkans to do research. Not until I was 30 pages from the end did I realise what the ending would be.
Those of us who fear withdrawal symptoms from the Faraday and Winter novels will be delighted to know that DS Jimmy Suttle will be moving with his family to his creators new stamping ground, to join the Devon and Cornwall Constabulary.
That is why he has acquired more and more importance as the series has gone on, beams Hurley. I was commissioned last week to do a two-book contract, the first book is called Western Approaches and it is already plotted.
Borrowed Light is published by Orion Books at 12.99.

What is a Building Inspection and Why Do I Need One?

Published On February 10, 2018 | By Dora Romero | home improvement

A building inspection is an official purview and analysis of a structure by a licensed inspector.  Typically this B2 Lab inspector is someone employed by a city or a township or a county, and usually has some kind of certification in one or more disciplines that qualifies them to make professional judgments about whether or not a building meets city code requirements.  A building inspector can have certification in residential or commercial inspection—like plumbing, electrical, mechanical.  They can also have certification in another specialty which focuses in structures during its various stages of completion (as in: to be approved before it can be declared habitable, etc.)

Also, it is typical for a building inspector to charge a direct fee or a building permit fee.   Inspectors even have the ability to delay construction until an inspection has been completed and process has been approved.

If you are planning to buy a property—regardless of whether it is a residence or a business—you should always get a building inspection.  Here are a few reasons why:

  • Advanced knowledge of existing problems
  • Negotiation leverage
  • Specialist advice

When you have advanced knowledge of any existing problems, you will not be surprised by them when you move in.  It allows you to more accurately determine whether you want to purchase the property as it is and whether or not you are able to commit to addressing the existing problems in the future.

At the same time, when you have advanced knowledge, you can also use that knowledge to gain some leverage in your price negotiations. For example, if the property does have some existing problems, you can argue for a price lower than the market value (since you will have to probably pay for the repair). Of course, the seller can also offer to fix the problems in order to retain their asking price.

It is not only important to understand what problems might exist now—and what it’s going to take to fix them—but you also want to know how these problems might affect the property over time.  If, for example, the foundation has rot, this structure will likely give out from under you sooner than it should.  This ensures that you not only get what pay for, but also what you are willing to pay more to work out later.

Healthcare decisions can be complicated, especially when you see the price tag.

Deductibles and copays. What’s covered and what’s not covered. Taking time off from work for appointments… the financial needs of other people in your household.

Your bank account… the future…Enough!

Making healthcare decisions can be hard, especially when you factor in the finances. In fact, the financial considerations may be what makes healthcare decisions so hard. Everything has a price tag attached to it. Leaving you feeling helpless as you watch the expenses adding up.

It doesn’t seem fair, does it? Living with a chronic condition can be stressful enough without having another reason to worry about money. But what can you do?

Tips to Deal with Healthcare Costs

Here are some ideas to keep the stress manageable as you factor in the financial aspects of making healthcare decisions:

Get clear on what you’re worried about. In our current economic environment, many of us are walking around with “free floating anxiety,” that feeling that our economic security is at risk. Get specific with yourself on what’s bothering you. Concerns about job security? Debt? A major expense coming up? The starting place for looking for solutions is to first define the problem. (This is also a good way to avoid catastrophe-thinking.)

Do the numbers. Take a hard look at what you’re spending each week for medical-related expenses. Consider what expenses you might have in the near future. While all those numbers may not give you a warm and fuzzy feeling, at least you have a clear picture of what you’re dealing with. That’s another toward feeling more empowered. Ask for some help from the other people in your household who are involved in making financial decisions. After all, you’re a team.

Get informed. Connect yourself with resources you can tap into, including what might be available from the government. Some information-gathering might be in order here, on your own, or by reaching out to people who can give you advice. Sources might include the Web, your insurance company, and healthcare professionals like your local pharmacist. Find out about policies at your job related to sick leave and other health-related issues, as well as what benefits might be available, including financial counseling. Flood the fear with facts!

Ask your doctor about lower cost alternatives. Be upfront with your doctor about your financial concerns. Try to be specific regarding anything that is currently a burden, or what might be in the future. See if you the two of you can explore your options, which could include generic medications, alternative and lower cost treatments, less frequent and/or less expensive testing, clinical trials, and patient assistance programs. You might also want to talk to your doctor’s nurse, physician’s assistant, or billing manager to see if they have suggestions.

Watch your self-care. One way to help keep your healthcare costs as low as possible is to take good care of yourself. Maintain your diet and exercise plan. Stay compliant with your medications. See your doctor on a regular basis. While you may need to find ways to save money, maintaining your optimal health still needs to be a priority. Don’t slack off on the basics.

Reach out for support. Thinking about spending money can be scary. Fear has a way of interfering with the ability to think clearly which can, in turn, make it difficult to make decisions. If you have a decision to make about your paying for healthcare, review your options with your partner, another family member, or a friend you trust. Get an additional perspective on the financial considerations. As they say, two heads can be better than one.

Mt. Laguna - April 1, 2006

These simple images above show the natural beauty of my favorite observing location
just past the spring thaw.
Roses Outside a Window

Fairly self-explanatory.  This is the same
window where I shot the "Solitary Yellow
Rose" picture (on the Random Pictures
page), only this time I used 3200 ISO film
instead of Kodak 125 px, so this one is
much grainier.  Exposure was 1/60 second
at f/4.

On the night of Feb 25, 2004, thin, high
clouds rolled in to cover the entire sky
and refract the light of the nearly full
moon into a circular colored spectrum
almost 50 degrees across.  Unfortunately,
I only had black and white film at the
time to record the event. 1 minute at f/8,

I took these images after waking up to the
90 degree plus heat of the mid-May sun at
Little Blair Valley.  My friend Eric (also
my manager at OPT) and I had gone on an
overnight trip to do some

to tear our gear down as quickly as
possible so that we could get in our
air-conditioned vehicles and make the long
drive home.

These are 3 images taken with a Pentax

in a contest at work.  I manipulated
images into repeating patterns through
rotation and by using  various blending
thechniques in Photoshop.  The original
intent was to use them as artwork in a
music project, but as that project is on
hold at the moment I figured I'd at least
put them up on the site.

These two shots plus the panorama above
made from 5 images stitched together were
taken during my trip to Arizona in late
July 2008.  The main purpose of the trip
was to chase thunderstorms, but I met my
family out there for a couple days and we
decided to head up to the Grand Canyon
for the afternoon.  While there, I figured
I'd better put my new camera to use.

Alexandre-Louis Martin “THREE MINERS”

Note: This is a very large, fine painting. It is too large for our photo facility and the website. Its dimensions, with original frame, are 48 inches by 60 inches. It is now boxed.
Stock 11444 oil on canvas. Belgian. Ca 1920. Alexandre Martin 1887-1954. Educated in Mons, Brussels, and Antwerp, the best academies in Belgium, Martin was the son of a miner. He was a fine portraitist and never forgot his roots. This superb work speaks to the savagely hard life in the mines near the turn of the century. We have handled many of his works and this is the best. There is a regional museum established in 1938 in his name in Carnieres, Belgium, his home. Works also in other regional museums. It is our best painting.
In the additional photos, there is a photo of the museum dedicated to him…we have many photos of his work there…one in particular is shown…it is a different version of our painting! Ours is, we believe, better. The Museum made post cards of their version an included it in their catalog.

Guest Blogger Nancy Lee Badger on Dragons of Scotland

Welcome back to History Undressed Nancy!  Some of you may recall Nancy's previous appearances here when she discussed Scottish proverbs, or when she gave us a little taste of Scots ale,  or perhaps you read her article on Scottish Mythology.  Today we are in for a treat by Nancy, Dragons!

By Nancy Lee Badger

Today I am talking about Dragons. These legendary creatures are typically pictured as having serpent-like or reptilian traits. Dragons are featured in the myths of cultures spanning the globe. Today, I will concentrate on the mythological dragons of Scotland. Scotland is where I base my newest novella, DRAGON’S CURSE.

From Cirein Croin, a sea serpent believed to be the largest creature ever, to the long, thick tailed wingless Beithar who haunted the quarries and mountains around Glen Coe, to the infamous Loch Ness Monster, dragons have been a part of Scottish folklore. Some say dragons are a mix of the serpent, the feline, and the predatory bird, the great predators of prehistoric times. Once man started to walk upright, he combined them into one terrifying beast, and the dragon was born.

One tale of bravery and love mentions the Rowan Tree. In the tale of Froach & the Rowan Tree, Froach swims to an island to gather berries from a magic Rowan Tree to save the life of his lover’s mother. He slips past the dragon guarding the tree then swims home only to discover he needs the entire branch. Back he goes, but the dragon awakes. Froach is wounded and swims toward home. His lover throws him a sword so he can kill the dragon and get to shore. Some say Froach dies, but the romantic in me believes the few who say he and his lover lived happily ever after. I have included the Rowan Tree in my story line in Dragon’s Curse. A Mountain Ash, in the family Rosaceae, it is native throughout the cool, temperate regions of the Northern Hemisphere. It finds a welcome home in the Scottish Highlands. With red foliage and large clumps of red berries each autumn, the Rowan is one of the most familiar wild trees of the British Isles.

Another story revolves around the most famous dragon of Scotland: the Loch Ness Monster or ‘Nessie’. Yes, Nessie is classified as a dragon even though many assume it is a leftover dinosaur or lake fish that has grown to gigantic proportions. Tales of Nessie date from the sixth century and one story goes like this: When Saint Columba traveled through the country of the Picts, he had to cross the River Ness. He came across Picts burying a man said to have been bitten by the water-monster. Not a stupid man, Columba ordered one of his men to swim across and return with a boat. The chosen man, Lugneus Mocumin swam off, but the monster saw him and charged. All on shore stood in horror except Columba, who raised his holy hand and inscribed the Cross in the air. He called upon the name of God and commanded the beast, saying, “Go no further! Do not touch the man! Go back at once!” The monster drew back, retreating to the depths of the Loch. Unharmed, Lugneus brought the boat back. Everyone was astonished. The heathen savages who witnessed the miracle were overcome and came to know the magnificence of the God of the Christians.

Nessie and Loch Ness are the most famous tourist attraction in Scotland and the locals will tell you about the mythical sea creature that some have actually seen in modern times and is probably a stranded dragon. The dragon can be seen as a symbol of the Celts, Picts and other early heathens of the area.

Where does this leave us today? Dragons have found their way into many modern books and movies. Shape shifters are a modern day paranormal storyline and several authors have used dragon lore to create stories to entertain us all. My story is slightly different. My hero has been cursed by a dead witch for a crime he did not commit. Cursed to transform into a dragon at inopportune times, Draco Macdonald decides to live out his years on the uninhabited island of Staffa. These plans go awry when Brianna Macleod arrives with a hunting party.

There is something about the myth of dragons that makes one wish they actually existed. In Wychwood Forest there is a Dragon's Tol, and a place called Dragon's Claw. Dragon's Claw is in fact a large fallen tree with outspread roots like a huge claw of a dragon.

Beth Caudill said...

Hey Nancy, congrats on the release.

All your tales of dragons made me think of Puff-the-Magic dragon. Maybe I just have music on the brain since I'm still populating my new ipod.

Nancy said...

Thanks for your comments! I may do another article on dragons since a certain friend of mine owns DOZENS of wonderful research books. For a so-called imaginary beast, they sure are popular!

Anita Clenney said...

Fascinating stories, Nancy. And your story, Dragon's Curse sounds very interesting. Congrats on your release.

Beth Caudill said...

Nancy, I'll be sure to inform my husband you like the research books. He's complaining that I have too many. I keep asking for another bookcase. :)

Erin Kelly said...

Great post, Nancy! I love Nessie, and no matter what those kill-joy scientists say, she will always be real to me :)
Congrats on the book!

Thank you, Nancy, for sharing your knowledge and those fascinating stories.

Dr Silvia Battista performs at Independents Biennial Liverpool

Among the performers at this year’s Independents Biennial Liverpool was Liverpool Hope’s Dr Silvia Battista.

The Theatre and Performance Studies Lecturer performed her piece Persephone (2018) in the George Henry Lee building in response to the installation The Jugglers (2018) realised by the artist Angelo Madonna.

Dr Battista said: “As a performance artist and researcher in the field, I was very excited to contribute to the Independents Biennial Liverpool and to engage with both the George Henry Lee building and the installation piece.

“The building was used to host one of the biggest home retailers in town, therefore it gave me the possibility to experiment with transforming a pathway devised for commercial purposes into a theatrical and ritualistic system.”

Art in Liverpool stated: “By employing repetition within a circular structure, the performance produces a presence which plays on the possibility and impossibility of a dis/embodied presence to inhabit a space. Eventually Persephone vanishes and her story will be narrated: a contemporary tale of loss and redemption, of myth and ordinary life, of jugglers and lost souls.”

Dr Battista was interviewed alongside Angelo Madonna, by Independents Biennial Writer-in-Residence Joanie Magill. Read the interview in full here.

By 2015, healthcare costs will hit $4 trillion and account for 20 percent of the US economy.

This political cartoon applies aptly to Congress in general, and they're bungling of health care reform bill in particular.

It's almost childiss that the issues of public option and abortion funding could stall the health care reform bill in its tracks. I say remove abortion funding from the bill with a stipulation that health insurance companies still offer separate abortion insurance, together with free birth control pills and rubber cocks to Americans who might need coverage for unplanned parenthood. That is, make abortion coverage an add-on item. On the other hand, if the objections to abortion funding is due to abortion being offensive and contrary to religious beliefs than the constitutional guarantee of separation of church and state should be invoked to settle the matter.

That said, IMHO, the public option (universal coverage) should remain intact in the health reform bill. Here's my own reasons: There are plenty people on disability or gov't assistance living in my building whom receive free medical among other of life's necessities. If they scraped together enough money to buy themselves a car, they would be then entitled to free car insurance with their purchase paid for by the state. Meanwhile, everybody between billionaire and disability recepients are at whim of the health insurance providers. Spending as a whole on health insurance will go up. However, that fact is a bit decieving. The reason why the total goes up is that mathematically a larger number of people will be covered under a gov't option and overall there's more premiums in the kitty. People will be universally covered for catasthropic illnesses that otherwise would lead to bankruptcy, the same protection legislated in a health care reform bill with it's for members only policy. Theoretically, the individual's bill for health insurance should drop because like anything and everything else where there's a higher volume involved, for example, like the price of a Jack-in-the-Box hamburger.

Kay said...

We need you in Congress, Ron!

RONW said...

Kay- but then I'll get health insurance for life. LOL.

Had all 50 shades of Gray? Looking for 69 rays of color?

Maybe you read fifty shades and loved it and want more, or maybe it was just to scandalous for you to be caught with even if you secretly wondered. Whether you are just too shy to be caught reading it or you finished all of the books and now are left with an emptiness needing to be filled I have some GREAT suggestions guaranteed to please you ;).

For those of you who are still in the closet about your love of erotic literature some safely discrete options for you:

The “Sweet” series by Maya Banks is absolutely titillating. The covers are pictures of juicy fruits and from beginning to end each of her books is a juicy read. There are currently six books in the series each one featuring a different approach to sex. Every novel gives us a great balance of the romance we love as well as the heat we crave and a little action thrown in to keep it exciting.

Shayla Black’s “Wicked Lovers” series is most certainly worth mentioning! There are seven books so far and while some of the covers are a little more descriptive don’t let that turn you away, there are a few like Delicious that from the outside could just be really interesting cook books….at least they certainly got my imagination cooking…I do want to be honest and say that personally there were a few frustrating moments pulling my emotions all different directions, during these books, however overall they were very pleasing.

For those of us who are out, proud and looking for more. I sincerely suggest checking out:

Cherise Sinclair’s “Shadowlands” Series, it will literally hold you captive. All of the books in this series are red hot reads. You definitely don’t read these for the plot so if you like a lot of story line in your stories don’t waist you time here. However if you like a lot of steamy hot dripping with intensity moments you will love these. Oh and for once its not only the “alpha male” she shows the female Dom’s perspective beautifully.

Eve Berlin is wonderfully tempting. I find it hard to pick just one of her books to recommend to you she is absolutely check out worthy. She writes some seriously steamy scenes while still capturing the beauty of the moments.

There are so many great options out there but these should get you started off nicely. As for me I’m off to curl up with Vic in “Wicked Burn” by Beth Kery mmm he can take me to bed any night!

Dripping with anticipation

erotic stories foreplay Someone asked me recently if I could give them some ideas for different kinds of foreplay. If you are anything like me this is something you just can get enough of, the wetter the better. Foreplay is crucial before we can enjoy the pleasures of any kind of penetration. While watching porn with your lover is a great way to get you both excited, I know I personally never make it all the way through before we are all over each other. The 50 Shades phenomenon made it apparent that millions of women enjoy reading erotic stories. So why not combine that personal pleasure?

Ok so I know a lot of you are thinking right now that your partner would much rather just watch a movie than read. I’m not talking about him doing the reading. I mean you let him create his own images in his head to the sound of your voice let his brain do all the work.

The trick to getting the full potential out of this one is setting a simple ground rule into effect, while you’re reading they can’t touch you. Just make sure you find a story that works for you both and treat it like an exotic dance, you can sit in their lap strip down whisper in their ear, but there hands are to remain off of you until you say so.

Find a good story, we have hundreds to choose from, to curl up with and sit back and watch them get totally turned on. I personally loved you mean me. Just remember anticipation is half the fun!

Introducing Gina Liquor you’re new up and cuming sexcoach.

Hi everyone Gina Liquor here, you’re newest columnist. Let’s start this off on a safe note! Spicing it up keeping it Safe.

Been in a relationship for a while? Trust your partner but want to try something a little more exciting than your usual routine? Everyone likes to spice things up once in a while, a key factor to exploring new boundaries while staying comfortable is communicating a safe word! I know, I know, you aren’t into all that hardcore tie me up and smack me around stuff, but any couple delving into unfamiliar sexual territory for the first time should have one. I believe every couple should have a safe word in general, regardless of their sexual preferences, a safe word guarantees that there is NO confusion and that neither party takes things to far.

Sexual experimentation with your partner should always feel fun and secure. Say you are roll playing for the first time and your partner starts acting like your annoying coworker, that is a quick way to kill the mood, but a safe word lets your partner know that you don’t like the direction things are heading and they should stop immediately so you can fix the problem.

Another great reason to have a safe word is that you and your partner both will feel more comfortable opening up and trying new things without the worry of having to finish an act you are uncomfortable with. Discussing your safe word will also help you both open up to talk about other desires by providing the opportunity to express personal fantasies or new positions you would like to try but may have been hesitant to mention.

When choosing your safe word you should take both of your typical bedroom language into consideration, also any situation in which you are role playing, the dialog you would typically use. Something like “YES!” or “Ouch” would for example not be the wisest choices. You should also be careful of words that can be misunderstood in the moment like organism or coral, they may hear orgasm and oral. I would also suggest staying away from words with a lot of syllables like antidisestablishmentarianism or supercalifragilisticexpialidocious, while they may sound cute or definately not something I normally whisper in my lovers ear, when you are out of breath and your partner is caught up in the moment that’s a lot to get out when you need an immediate stop.

I suggest coming up with something you both don’t enjoy like brussel sprouts, opera, or commercials, something that definitely wouldn’t normally come up during sex and would instantly register as a negative in both of your minds. Personally I use the color system. Red- stop right now, Yellow – you don’t have to stop everything but no more of that, and Green- would be for those moments where they get that sweet questioning look in their eyes wondering if you are OK but not asking to avoid ruining the moment.

Picking out a safe word is a great way to open up lines of communication between you and get those kinky juices flowing! For a great movie to give you some inspiration on ways to try out your new safe word you should defiantly check out Shades of Kink with Evan Stone! Just remember a safe word is to make things more comfortable, and enjoyable don’t over think it and have fun!

Hinckley United0

Attendance: 329

Report by Luke Edwards

Hyde went top of the Blue Square Bet North, for at least 24 hours with a commanding display against a beleagured Hinckley United. Hyde took control from the off and took the lead on 11 minutes when debutant Adam Griffin's pinpoint ball was tucked away by Matthew Berkeley for his first goal for the Tigers. David Kolodynski replied for Hinckley but his shot was well held by David Carnell. Their was soon a double blow for the visitors as first centre half Craig Mcaughtrie had to be taken off injured and then they lost Mark Dudley to a red card after he pulled back Gianluca Havern as he was about to head into an empty net, a penalty was given and Scott Spencer tucked it away to score his 7th goal of the season all this with just 32 minutes on the clock. Hyde were rampant and after a great passing move Ryan Crowther was put in the clear and he calmly beat Danny Haystead to give the Tigers a 3 goal lead at half time. The 2nd half was like a training session as Hinckley hardly got out of their own half and Hyde were intent to just keep the ball and added a 4th when after a long passing move a pinpoint cross from Spencer allowed Berkeley to tuck in his 2nd of the night. With the game won Gary Lowe rung the changes and it was 2 of the 3 substitutes who should have put the game to bed as both Mike Whitwell and Danny Broadbent both missed good chances to extend the lead. Hyde now go into Saturday's Cheshire Derby with Altrincham full of confidence and will be looking to make it 5 out of 5.

In Which I Explain My Recent Absence.

Gentle reader, perhaps you have noticed I have been missing from these pages the last few weeks. Then again, perhaps not. It’s hard for me to imagine a you that does not monitor my comings and goings as carefully as a presidential physician, but I acknowledge the theoretical possibility. If that’s you, well, so be it. I probably wasn’t talking to you anyway.

Perhaps you have gleaned from other postings on this site that my employment of the last 16 years was abruptly terminated, that I was found redundant, downsized, not completely necessary to the continued functioning of the institution for which I had worked. Perhaps, having gleaned, you deducted that the bulk of my freelance worked was conducted on a computer owned by my employer during times for which I was paid an hourly wage, and assumption I CATEGORICALLY AND LEGALLY DENY. Nothing so common as the sudden termination of my employment would keep me from you, my audience, the only people on earth I care about. Besides, you know, my kids. And my wife. And my parents, my brother, his children and all the other people who might take offense and retaliate in irritating ways if I failed to mention them. Truthfully, as you my audience are for the most part imaginary for me, that either places you at the top or bottom of my list of priorities, depending on my mood and medication. My point is, I’m back, and I was not gone just because some ‘suit’ callously ‘gutted’ the ‘entire department’ to which I had given the better part of my ‘soul’ for a goodly chunk of my ‘adult life’. No, it took a lot more than that to keep me away from you.

At around the same time I was terminated, and quite coincidentally, I was mauled by a lion. A drunk lion. A drunk, knife-wielding, clinically depressed lion, with whom I had been drinking, when things, as they will, suddenly turned ugly. Also, the lion was on fire, having drunkenly failed to minor the nearness of it’s mane to one of the many decorative candles that provided the sort of scant illumination preferred by men and lions doing the sort of industrial drinking we were doing. It was a case of booze fueled mistaken identity for which I forgave the lion posthumously, but only after I killed him by the repeated application of a barstool applied directly to his forehead.

Sadly, your better intensive care units have iron clad rules against smoking, drinking, shooting up and blogging. Hence my absence. So if you thought I was away, sobbing under a table over the uncertainty of my future or getting hasty and poorly considered depression related sex reassignment surgery, now you know better. And also, ‘ph*ck’ you, and ‘ph*ck’ the horse you road in on.

That's all right Mr. Burbank. I guess almost everyone may pass by that experience of suddenly losing a job, but I'm sure your tough temper will allow you to intimidate the next guy that will offer you one and will have no other choice but getting on his knees and beggin for you to join.

Fast Eddy (Guest) on 06/26/2008 5:09 pm

The Japanese don't have a word for "crisis". Only a word that, loosely translated, means "to hell with you all, this is an opportunity to get drunk", or something like that.

Good to have you back.

Jigby Huggletinks on 06/26/2008 9:32 pm

I was having withdrawals. I actually took up smoking, and eventually heroin, and when my brother confronted me offering clinical psychological help, I shot him thrice in the chest, killing him, and buried him that evening, on the east side of IN-62, 1 mile before Exit 7.

And then, the Lord and Savior Max Burbank returned. And there was much rejoicing.
