" WHAT I REALLY ENJOYED "

Wed Oct 19, 2011 7:18 pm

About " Annis -My Story " was when he went into the changing rooms and had a go at Alan Durban.

The story about how his family copied 'The Body Shop' and was taken to the High Courts by the International firm to close the shops that the Abraham family had opened looking very much like the Body Shop but at a fraction of the price.

The whole story behind the march against Ridsdale and how Annis was stabbed in the back by one of the directors at the club.

And how he made money from the nightclub scene, turning clubs that losing money and making them into profitable businesses before selling them on before moving onto the next venture.

A lot more in there but those were the bits that really interested me, I guess other people may find the stuff about being around when the Soul Crew was formed and telling the story for the first time ever more appealing to them but as I said the making money chapters and his love of the club made it an intriguing read, and the bit about blowing the club up . . . . well what can I say.

Good work Annis, for me the best one yet :ayatollah:

My job was to put into words how you tell the story so if I achieved that which you say I have then I am happy :ayatollah:

But seriously nevermind my involvement it is about the stories in it that make the book the success it is, which is evident in the sales and the reviews :ayatollah:

No - I know, and I was half joking but I genuinely actually do want to buy a copy now having heard more about it. It sounds like an interesting life! Wish I had a beach to read it on

Really Great book, I think it will also be a book of great interest to people outside the Cardiff City fanbase, so i reckon sales could be huge. Also well done Carl for getting Annis's thoughts down on paper. ( What I mean is the hours you spent typing) :lol:
