I remember poor old Pilchers, Someone I knew ran coach trips to various pubs around Kent. We paid a small sub to travel, but it turned out that the organiser gave Pilchers duff cheques. I think that was the beginning of the end for Pilchers. He got away with it because his father was fairly high in the army.

Father wouldn`t be able to save him these days - drug tests are now compulsory.

And there was me thinking that in the "good old days" the force was wonderful.

It's strange how much credence is given to biographies such as this one. Strip it down to the essentials and what do we have? A career criminal, who was prosecuted and found guilty of routine corruption. He's a liar and a thief and I don't care to read what he has to say because it's almost certainly self serving bollux made up by a very greedy man.
