nice, nice cushman but make sure you answer number three and recheck your answers before submitting the final answer so you wont hit back at me like Bagoma, right now my lips are 
|
|
|
|
|

I've changed my mind. I think i should give others chance to participate. Bagoma should answer question three for me.
|

Bagoma is opting out too, i think i'll have to recruit more Nairaland into this............Jalal, kallylove,ty4eva what do y'all think?

Hey @justme, welcome to the club. I think Vito Ferrari is the bomb!
|
|
|
|
|

Vito Ferrari only featured in "his way for a shroud" he's good but i don't like him  if youre voting, chose between Tom lepski, Vic Malloy and Mark Girland, those are regular and more interesting characters. Quiz four on the way. cushman your prize will reach you, please be patient...........................my schedule had been crazy of late

I introduced myself, he said he knew me already i guess GOLDFISH HAS NO HIDING PLACE, he smiled and replied THATS JUST THE WAY IT IS. we got talking and when i told him ID RATHER STAY POOR but he insisted YOURE DEAD WITHOUT MONEY. listened to him with AN EAR TO THE GROUND and thought about it for a while, enjoy life and be rich have as many friends as make you happy afterall YOURE LONELY WHEN YOURE DEAD. it happened my boss message was a code, when i returned to my boss and at the door we got a response from inside KNOCK, KNOCK WHO'S THERE. Bagoma, please take it from there

I replied I aint scared of you’re a$$ and watch it because You’VE GOT IT COMING!! Later that night I engaged the services of a HIT AND RUN driver, gave him a bottle of beer and said HAVE THIS ONE ON ME and told him my plan, he gave me a leery grin and said “THERES ALWAYS A PRICE TAG for anything, YOU HAVE YOURSELF A DEAL, pally”!!! “HIT THEM WHERE IT HURTS most”, I told him referring to Mallory and his goons. “LIKE A HOLE IN THE HEAD?”, he enquired, “You jus FIND HIM AND I”LL FIX HIM boss”, he muttered. That night, Mallory’s crumpled body went THIS WAY FOR A SHROUD. I then went over to Eve’s and said “WELL NOW MY PRETTY……, ”and for the last time tasted THE FLESH OF THE ORCHID, haha THE THINGS MEN DO!!!

**Rain was falling heavily, and the wind felt bleak against his face. He stood for some seconds looking at the embankment, letting his eyes become accustomed to the darkness. Nothing moved. He would have to take a chance, he thought, and ran the landing plank, from the barge, down to the wet tarmac. He slid down the plank, gained the dark shadows and again paused to listen. Again he heard nothing to alarm him. His fingers tightened on the flail and keeping close to the embankment wall, he walked silently to the distant steps that led to the upper embankment. **
Can anyone tell me the title of this Chase?
