tatsblisters 9,689 Posted July 27, 2022 Report Share Posted July 27, 2022 Read the Judas Pig book found it a decent read but found the part were they were cutting about with guns like in down town Harlem a bit hard to believe. Wildcats i found a decent read but was surprised to see a few names of lads in it who i know i often wondered if they knew their names were mentioned in this book.

wildman 489 Posted July 28, 2022 Report Share Posted July 28, 2022 On 25/07/2022 at 17:07, pesky1972 said: I read A Kestrel For A Knave a couple of weeks ago, probably nearly 40 years after I first read it. I remember like it was yesterday getting it from the library, after watching Kes for the first time. Still a good wee read, and this time round brought loads of nostalgia from reading it a a kid, but also remembering my misspent youth, walking through woods and along hedgerows nesting, and scanning the skies for Kestrels (realistically the only raptor I was likely to see local). I was brought up in the same village where it's based and filmed ,the author Barry Hines lived there I went to school with his 2 children ,my mam still lives there ,next street to the chip shop and club that were in the film ,I've climbed that wall more times for a young kes or a little owl ,still there but in a bit of a state now 3 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I believe Ranking dread was a "Yardie" that was causing grief at a brothel they owned and had to be warned off. The guy who took the contract was Carl "the dread" Robinson allegedly, he may also be known as the predator.........i may also be wrong on that but its my first post so please be kind :). 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
