The Stradivarius

Jules and Jonathan, second year students, were reputed to be the top mathematicians of their year, but they could be found most evenings at The World’s End, where they met and were befriended by a number of dubious characters. They got talking to Auld Greg who boasted having done serious time, and to know everybody who mattered, that he could sell anything, no question asked, for the best of prices. Inevitably the two students began to wonder whether the tramp’s violin might not go a long way towards solving their chronic cash flow problems. They checked that a Stradivarius could fetch up to 3 or 4 million dollars, or at the very least half a million. It would be no great problem for two well-built young men to neutralise a frail tramp on a lonely winter night and get away with his million pound treasure. They consulted Auld Greg who assured them that he would get them the best price for the article, and he asked for no more than a couple of pints. He was happy to do a favour to mates. <a href="https://sancass.medium.com/the-stradivarius-8d50aa10ab50">Click Here</a>
