Site Downtime
Apologies for the recent website crashes. They were all due to the unbelievable amount of visitors logging on to our site and exceeding the permitted bandwidth. In order to cope with the number of people visiting the site each day, we have now had to upgrade to a larger server to prevent this from happening again.
Essex Boys The New Generation is completed and is currently being looked at by the Lawyers and edited. It is available in the shops from the 01st of May 2008. The evidence that I have unearthed whilst researching the book is likely to result in Ricky Percival being given a re-trial. It will certainly form part of his Appeal.
Several Television production companies are currently considering using the manuscript to make a documentary about the case. After completing Essex Boys The New Generation I did re-start writing Flowers in Gods Garden - for the tenth time - but I have once more been waylaid with another book that was offered to me as an idea.
Together with top Scottish photographer Brian Anderson I am compiling a book of photographs of the most notorious living Scottish, English and Irish villains over the last fifty years. We have already photographed approximately twenty individuals and are hoping to add a further thirty.
The quality of the photographs are quite outstanding. Titled `Wise Guys` we have found some real old characters from infamous crimes/gangs for this book that have never before had their photos published. We are also travelling to places like Morocco and Portugal to photograph villains who will not be returning to these shores for the foreseeable future because they are wanted.
Apologies once more for any inconvenience caused by the site being down.
Onwards and upwards
