Sowerbutt's Tragedy

A haunted look appeared in the teacher’s eyes. “The terrible bombing, the poor children. Bodies everywhere, I see them all the time, Mr Sorbay. I had to get away and rest. Better now, but I still see our children from South Halsville. I see their staring faces, covered in dust and soot. They scream, but there’s no noise. Grasping hands, flames and falling walls. Tears, endless tears.”

Sowerbutt's Alliance

“We must work together, Mr Sorbay,” the Red teacher said. “Mother Russia and the German people have different views, but they get along. A common interest in peace. McGaskie wanted to destroy you, but Radio Moscow says we must extend the hand of friendship to the bourgeoisie, form peace fronts and work together.”

Sowerbutt's Blitz

“The bombing, Prime Minister,” Brendan Bracken said wearily, running his hand through his flame-coloured hair. “Another night of disaster. The Palace of Westminster, the Tower, a mine destroyed the Langham for heaven’s sake,  Broadcasting House, Queen’s Hall, Druce’s, the East End as usual, Teeside, the South Coast."

Sowerbutt's Tanks

“Wooden tanks, Miss Polly? What are they talking about? Time we cleared off if that’s all that stands between us and the Jerries,” Jo-Jo said.

Sowerbutt's Lunch

Sowerbutt looked at the Ghost, as Gerard was known during the recent Spanish war. “I’d hardly call the second shot a miss. An inch from the skinny bloke’s face, exactly as you said. We deserve a pint in the Manor House. This shooting lark makes me hungry; I fancy a pickled egg."

Sowerbutt's River

Holding the shaking man by his throat, Spaghetti snapped: “Why don’t I just put you out of your misery and you can join your mate in The River.”

Sowerbutt's Warning

“You piece of crap,” Spaghetti hissed. “You dare to come into the Family’s patch without asking permission. Next time, your bullet won’t miss."

Sowerbutt's Enemy

The beanpole of a man knelt on the pavement, retching. A second 8x57 bullet had passed an inch from his face, he had felt the rush of air on his cheek.

Sowerbutt's Body

One-Line walked the dead man to the Austin van which screeched to a halt alongside on the East India Dock Road.

Sowerbutt's Bullet

The heavy man fell backwards into the arms of a giant, who quickly pushed a battered trilby over the bloody hole made by the single 8x57 bullet.
