Cushty website. I’ll be checking the stories out in the next few days. Tara. Paul.
Thank you very much, Paul. 🙂
Thanks, Mr Brazill. Hope you like the Ellroy that Steve put up!
I heard that Ellroy’s mother was actually murdered. Shocking, eh? Kept that quiet, didn’t he?
Steve: Cheers, boss. I still couldn’t get the password to work. Catch you later, pal.
Frank and Steve
