When Bobby George first appeared on the darts scene, he immediately caught the eye: well built (he was the only darts player ever to be approached to take part in TV's Superstars), good looking and with plenty of bling, he was a natural showman. He could play a bit too, as he showed by reaching the final of the world championship in both 1980 and 1994. But that is only the beginning of the story. Before the darts came his time as a doorman at various East End pubs and bars just after the era of the Krays and Richardsons, when baseball bats and knuckle dusters would often come in handy. He also helped build the Victoria line. Since he retired from full-time darts, he has appeared in gangster films such as Dog, on TV programmes such as Celebrity Fit Club, and in videos with The Streets. Now best known as a commentator on the BBC, George relives the excitement of the last thirty years of the world of darts, with plenty of insider gossip and stories about all the most famous players in the TV era of the sport.

The autobiography of one of the most charismatic figures in darts history, who has so much more to tell... When Bobby George first appeared on the darts scene, he immediately caught the eye: well built (he was the only darts player ever to be approached to take part in TV's Superstars), good looking and with plenty of bling, he was a natural showman.

BOBBY DAZZLER, a strong, strategic British Columbian retailer, had been a leader in the industry for nearly 30 years. Lasting many years in a field that is notorious for ups and downs, now she is speaking up about the abusive and bullying nature of large organizations, showing us how small local retail is not able to survive nor thrive. As it shares this experience, this business memoir blows the whistle and reveals the truth so others can also learn and be helped to understand the struggle of this small retailer. After experiencing the retail apocalypse first hand, and going through many general and personal challenges, a time had come for this retailer to change directions. After dealing with humanity on a material level, a self-discovery evolved from the struggles, the problems and all the adversity, leading to another path that was much more aligned to the soul purpose. In the meantime, a wonderful personal story had been created that was meant to be shared for many to enjoy about this small, local independent businesswoman who lasted so long in the challenging retail world.
If you were looking to hire a crack team of criminals to undertake a tricky and delicate burglary, the Bobby Dazzlers would be your worst nightmare. There's Walter Bowler, a violent bike thief looking to move on to better (or preferably worse) things. There's the dope dealer and family man, Bill. There's a cockney half wit called Dean Martin (who must nevertheless be treated with respect because of his ultra-hard cousin, Neville). And then there's the youngest of the four, a light-fingered youth with a morbid fear of trains. When they're asked to steal four strange-looking chairs from a museum in the North York Moors, something - everything - is bound to go pear-shaped. The Bobby Dazzlers follows their stumbling progress in a funny, macabre thriller about jealousy, drugs, media-friendly Yorkshiremen, salmon fishing, modernist chair design and gruesome death (both accidental and pre-meditated), all set against a backdrop of beautiful Georgian architecture and some of England's finest countryside.

5 - Star Review on Goodreads!"This is one of best stories I have read in a long time. There were many twists and turns and I had a hard time putting down this book. I highly recommend this book."Bainbridge's gaze slid over her body in appraisal before coming back to lock onto her eyes. The chill had vanished from the depths of the forest and his look offered a mixture of sexual allure and intrigue. A man like this didn't lack for lovers, not with those eyes. "There is something you could do for me, Miss Pomeroy," he said, his voice rich in timbre with a husky, seductive note, "if you would allow me to impose on you. I doubt it would take more than an hour or two of your valuable time." Her own gaze flashed to Lord Ainsley, taking in his stark surprise at his friend's blatant double entendre. Bainbridge had implied she was for sale the same as any other titled gentleman who'd garnered an introduction to her. She fought to keep her anger from showing, and failed."What is it you desire from me, my lord?" she asked, using a deliberately breathless voice. She shouldn't have let her temper think for her but the flirtatious response was clearly what he'd expected. She had the brief satisfaction of seeing carnal interest flare to life in him. A moment later it was gone, replaced once more with cool detachment.For years, scandalous behavior has made Caelan Hennesy's family an object of derision in polite society. Caelan, Cal to his friends, knows that the most important requirements for his bride will be impeccable breeding, a modest demeanor and to be completely scandal-free. At twenty-four, he meets the young woman of his dreams in a Paris museum and is completely captivated by her. Venetia Crawley is an intelligent and singular young beauty, refined enough to silence even the most virulent of society's sticklers. Venetia has been raised to be everything the daughter of a peer should be. She is educated, well-read and has also studied music and ballet. Cal is the prince she's dreamed of finding and she is certain that he will overlook the fact that she is not a highborn member of society, but the lovechild of a duke and his commoner mistress. When her half-truths and lies of omission are suddenly revealed during a scandalous incident, a disillusioned and bitter Cal walks away, leaving Venetia unprotected and at the mercy of a ruthless enemy.Nine years later Cal, now the Earl of Bainbridge, discovers that the famously bewitching and dazzling dancer at the Arcadian Theatre is none other than Venetia - still beautiful, still alluring; and leaving her behind is still his biggest regret. Dazzling Nettie Pomeroy claims she wants nothing to do with the man who walked away from her. She closed the door on Cal and on love years ago. However, neither of them can deny the passion they still feel for one another, or the love they still share. As Nettie and Cal try to fight their feelings, an enemy draws closer, determined to bring harm to people Cal cares about. Will he be able to protect the woman he refuses to surrender again, and can Nettie trust Cal enough to open her heart for a second chance at love?
