And Simon came out and had a book in his hand.
I remember Simon saying to me, oh, you know, I've got this book.
I think, to me, he was saying, I think you're ready for it.
I remember the book because Tony had the book.

I just sort of said, thanks anyway, but it's not for me and you're welcome to keep it.
Certainly got bad vibes off the guy and often think that I'd really wish to turn back time to handle that situation a hell of a lot differently than what I did.
It was neat and clean and nothing untoward that you would go, oh, what's happening here?
Apart from maybe some, what's the word, manipulation, coercive control, they call it now, I suppose.

I just with the way that Tony I could see was being manipulated and almost, you know, totally controlled by this guy's every whim, you know.
To this day, I don't know how they met or how they came into contact with each other or what the connection was.
I probably should have asked the question, but he just sort of teamed up with them.
