World Cider Day @ Geelong (3 June) – Montalto drew in the smoke of his Cuban. He leant back in his chair and rolled his tongue around his mouth slowly savouring the taste of old memories. He closed his eyes and breathed out his nose – a man on fire. A whimper. Montalto peered through the cigar haze and looked down at Tuck cowering before him. He snorted with distain. ‘And to think you once ruled this city’. With bloody eyes and a swollen face, Tuck looked up from the ground and met the gaze of his nemesis. ‘You deserve to die like a dog Montalto’ he spat at his feet. A guttural laugh erupted from Montalto. Aaaah, today would go down in the history books of the city’s crime world.
