"You"ll pay for this."
"I usually do," Gallagher replied. He stamped on the man"s knee.
"You bastard."
"No major harm done but no running for a couple of days, OK?"

Harry drove them to the lock-up garage. It was where Gallagher kept his van, motorbike and most of his specialist kit.
"Want me to wait? It"s a bit of a trek back to your new gaff. Why not get another lock-up, move your stuff?" Harry asked.
"Because it"s still in Uncle Edwin"s name. I like to know it"s here and not connected to me officially. Get off home."
"You going to drive back?"
"No, I"ll walk."
"Why?"
"I like walking."
"How many pubs from here to there?"
"How should I know?"
"OK, how many pubs in direct view from here to your new place?"
"Twenty-three, but only six are worth a visit."
Harry laughed.
