I’m extremely grateful to the following people for advice, guidance and support: Kevin Toner, Stuart Cosgrove, Colin McCredie, Theresa Talbot, James Grant, Ian Burgoyne, Clark Sorley, Billy Sloan, Farah Khushi, Billy Kiltie, Lawrence Donegan, Bruce Findlay, Iain Conroy, Hardeep Singh Kohli, Muriel Gray, Christopher Brookmyre, Nick Quantrill and John Niven.
As ever, none of this would be possible without the incredible force of nature that is Karen Sullivan, my friend and publisher who gives me belief that the words I string together are of interest to other people.
I’m thankful once again to my family and friends. Elaine, my ever-supportive missus; Nathan and Nadia, our dustbins … and my mum and sisters, Marlisa and Susan. All of them are patient and accommodating beyond the call of duty.
Finally, I’m hugely indebted to Robert Hodgens … better known to many of you as Bobby Bluebell. The song ‘It’s a Miracle (Thank You)’ by The Miraculous Vespas, was written, performed and produced by Bobby. Lyrics published by – and reproduced with kind permission of – 23rd Precinct Music/Notting Hill Music.
