Charles had been wondering about Elvin’s lack out of digits since<br />

they initially met, but he’d felt too embarrassed to ask, but now that<br />

Elvin had offered to disclose the fact, he wanted to know.<br />

"I lost these many years ago, when I was a stoker in the Royal<br />

Navy. I was selected to join the Portsmouth *Field gun crew and<br />

spent the next few years shore-based at H.M.S. Nelson in<br />

Portsmouth. I was training for the royal tournament at Earls’ court;<br />

but during one training session, a run with the 12 pounder, one of<br />

the guns wheels slipped as we tried to lift it over the wall. I made a<br />

grave error of judgment and ignored the warnings from me training,<br />

and grabbed the wheel to stop it slipping." He held up his hands. "I<br />

trapped me bloody hands underneath and it cut me fingers clean off.<br />

"Elvin sighed and looked sullen. “That was the end of me service<br />

career."<br />

He then chuckled and continued,<br />

"Never mind; it all worked out for the best. I got pensioned out at<br />

thirty-five, so came to Grimsby. I got a job on the fishing trawlers<br />

and met me missus, Anna, and we have three great kids. When they<br />

laid me off from the trawlers in the 80's, I built a workshop on a<br />

large piece of land at the back of our house, which I kitted out with<br />

tools and machinery. I started to make medical prosfetics, starting<br />

with me own, ‘little falsies.’ Then I started making some for the<br />

prosfetics department at the general 'ospital. I turned me little 'obby<br />

into a lucrative and fulfilling business."<br />

The four old timers started to feel merrily spannered, Charles now<br />

felt at ease and comfortable being around these three miscreants.<br />

However, something that Mrs. Chew mentioned had been bothering<br />

him, so he asked,<br />

“What did Mrs. Chew mean about the incident before?”
