Sowerbutt's Salute

The butts of the Lee-Enfields smacked onto the driveway gravel as one; a portly figure, dressed in a long tweed overcoat and black Homburg, stepped forward and shook the squat man’s hand.

Sowerbutt's Belt

Private Cloud stepped into the short tunnel and shone his hurricane lamp in the alcoves.  It was the work of seconds for Vershinin to strangle the 20-year-old; his belt looped around the soldier’s neck, his other hand clamped across his mouth.

Sowerbutt's Champagne

Bracken said: “Sorbay has more Pol Roger for you, sir. I won’t go into its origins but it is untraceable. No record of it having been lifted, I think the saying is.” Churchill grunted: “The source of all wisdom, Brendan. What Government could survive without the elixir of the gods?”

Sowerbutt's Praise

Brendan Bracken said: “The man who saved St Paul’s and the Tower was your man, Sorbay, Prime Minister. He found the bombs at the Cathedral and his men took out this criminal docker at the Tower.”

Sowerbutt's Claim

"I’d be surprised if anyone – Vershinin – was hidden there. The lads and I work well in the dark.” Brendan Bracken snorted: “I’m sure – as half the West End knows to their cost.”

Sowerbutt's Reply

A voice replied: “Lieutenant Bradshaw, Royal Fusiliers. We’re expecting you. Would you be so kind, old chap, to exit the tunnel one by one, holding your weapons by the barrel in front of you? Don’t want any mistakes, do we?”
