The "Twisted" Sisters
Apologies for the delay "Angel has been incommunicado and "Silva" wanted to clear me speaking of the twins...Not the Krays as some have thought ...possibly because Bindon was a goffer for those gentlemen at times? These Twins and there cousin were known to there closest friends as the twisted sisters ,two half Irish half Palestine beueteys {mirror image twins that rarely ever looked it and were called Chameleons or Camile and Neon for fun {anyone who remembers a pack of multi coloured leather clad {female] stunning angels who rode through central London and along the Kings Road on Harley Davidson's in the 70s would have seen one of them and or there attractive full blooded Irish cousin , these three ,had come to London in the late 60's fresh from convent school and made the "sacrifice" with Terry ,that the cousins God father was about one of the most respected Republican freedom fighters there was ,was not common knowledge but a fact,and those girls loved Terry ,[first blood love allways lasts ]they themselves were no push overs, Terry had often said that any of the three could "whoop his arse" they may have looked like models but they were quite capable of becoming very "Dark Angels " all three had been taught the value of martial arts from an early age, the twins mother had married an Irish Ranger and she was apparently very skilled in most martial arts, oddly taught by her best friend a Jewish lady that had survived the concentration camps an unlikely alliance some might say but there was nothing typical about the girls , and they could bring a world of pain to anyone if they had a mind to,Terry was no Angel either, not if it came to it, Coffee and the girls had seen to that ,Bindons reputation with a blade wouldn't have troubled Terry and unlike Bindon he was quite capable of stripping a handgun down and putting it back together as well as using one ,id seen him face down one of Magintys men{Irish dealers who ran the cannabis scene around Soho then} when he was only 17 years of age "Hookey " was armed and so was terry ..that was in the Earl of Sandwich in Li ester Square ,not a pub for the weak hearted back then unlike Hookey Terry didn't show off the gun but he made sure Hookey saw it under the table He once said "not a fashion accessory just a tool,some jobs just cant be done without the tools " . I saw him use a blade, unlike the one who pulled it on him once , i never saw him pull a gun but i had seen him with one and clean one.... and he only had to ask the girls....Now please don't get me wrong they were sweethearts, they hated politics and to them "religion "was Latin for the" tie that binds "they were strictly"non interested parties" when it came to that nonsense but ,they had those that watched over them albeit from a distance...not to far, they had them there in London,whether they liked it or not...they didn't ,but such was life /cest la vie as they would say,They hadn't seen Terry for a number of years , they weren't around when he was busted or ,they spent a number of years in Paris and Beirut, they came back at the end of 1976 and heard about what had happened then as far as i can remember now.... Anyway the point i have tried to make is that Terry would have not feared{rightly or wrongly} confronting Bindon for a "sit down " and explanation as to why it was being said Bindon wanted to "see" him ...I'm not suggesting Terry could have taken Bindon in a fight ...not a fist fight at least though i have to say i had seen Terry drop a colored chap that was bigger than bindon once ,Terry had a capacity for violence if pushed and he knew where and how to hit, his attitude was if he couldn't win quickly he couldn't win fairly, so he went in hard and fast ,he wasn't big but was he ever fast, he hit that chap flush in the throat before he hit him, and twice more for good measure,so fast the chap didnt see them comeing it almost killed him,so he could fight ,and way above his weight if he had to ....But he hadn't come to fight he'd come to talk because as he said that last time i saw him.."Bin man's {reverence was never his weakness} supposed to be old school ,at least that's what I've heard and I've been doing the "Art of war "thing{ a reference to "know your enemy}One of his and the girls favorite books along with The anarchist's cookbook was The Art of War } i can't see him backing a grass, maybe its more a "know your Friends " thing and I'm not seeing it ,my head;s been up my arse for to long sweetheart."...That got him a smile but it was then i should have realised he wasn't well at all ,hindsight is both a bitch and a bastard ,it could be that it's both curse and blessing as well he'd always had really good foresight even when stoned in the past ,true i hadn't seen him for a while but not that long...anyway as i said that it what i wanted to explain. So why have i called this The Twisted Sister's? Well Terry was self deprecating at times and one of his lines when he was being "chatted up" was "Listen sweetheart I'm so good in bed I'm a feminists dream, one night with me you'll be a "twisted sister" and "off" men for life" Personally i prefer to think if I'd shared the and the twins bed with him and there cousin it would have made me more very happy than "twisted" The line rarely worked as more than adding one to the "challenge" of course{ One thing he was,nt was an easy lay, but deep down i think there was some genuine insecurities...the overwhelming impression i got from that night was that" whoever" this "Woman of his dreams "was .he'd finally turned "fallen angel" and given away his soul as well as his heart to her ,which makes writing this so very difficult......
