    A very odd character. As I recall, he likes to draw attention to himself, even if that attention is negative.

    “Batchelor was also once nicknamed the Glasgow Goldfinger over scams he carried out in Scotland – but he claims now to have gone straight.”

    I actually think he got chibbed before the slammer.
    I hope so, conning old ladies out of their dead husbands watches n jewellery was his speciality.

    In and out for me, strictly business.
