“Spaghetti, will you
deal with a couple of roaring boys for me?
Take One-Line and Cocker and whoever else you want. Put anyone you need
for the job on the payroll.”
Sowerbutt pushed the list of
Haganah addresses from Jack Shakes across the desk.“Two bastards, big beefy boys, roughed up Jack Shakes and no-one touches my friends. No-one. They were after his tenant who may have scarpered to one of these addresses. It’s a question of checking where the roaring boys have visited, where’s left and springing them.”
“Farewell them, guv. You are not worried about how they go?”
“No, Spaghetti, no goodbyes. Give them a beating they won’t forget, strip them and chain them to railings, a fence or whatever, and throw away the keys. Take a bucket of strong violet gentian with you and give them a good daubing. That’ll get them twitching. I’m sending a message to their boss that nobody pokes their nose into the Family’s patch.”
