The Day of the Gecko
“He’d got up earlier, walked down and bought the papers in Hall Street. Now he was flicking idly through the Telegraph Mirror while he sipped his coffee. Les didn’t have the radio on and there wasn’t a great deal in the papers and what there was didn’t interest him all that much. What Norton was mainly thinking about was his new flatmate, Major Lewis. When he said The Gecko never ceased to amaze, he sure wasn’t kidding. The way he took those three dills out at Redwoods was beautiful to watch. Ev...en if it was only plain, simple unarmed combat. Then he didn’t even talk about it afterwards. Les knew heaps of blokes, they get into a bit of a scuffle, and what was just a few punches thrown turns into a knock down, drag ’em out brawl lasting half an hour. Then they go on like heroes and never shut up about it. The Gecko half killed his three blokes, then went home and watched ‘Star Trek’. He had style. For some reason, despite only knowing him a short time, Norton found himself liking Major Lewis.MoreLess
