There was a ringing in his ears, like a dead phone line that he couldn__ hang up on.

Dell had left the army and taken the discipline home with him. I__ left the theatre world and taken the whisky sodas home with me.

Last summer, in London at least, the hoodie was transformed from a benign piece of leisurewear into a uniform for the disaffected, the angry, the malevolent. So much so that __oodie_ was no longer a piece of clothing. It was a whole person. A hoodie was somebody likely to steal, plunder and do you unimaginable harm.People were crossing the street when a hoodie crossed their path - even if it was a 70-year-old gentleman walking his dog. That__ how quickly the fear had permeated the collective consciousness. And lifting the hood was tantamount to cocking a gun.
