Advert for the Butcher the Baker and the Undertaker 2013

The Butcher The Baker and The Undertaker is a comedy drama about a street of shops in 

Old Forge and Singing Anvil

Interconnecting short stories that build and build with laughter. Here's a flavour

Wayne buys a derelict pub and his wife is pregnant with twins , things could not be worse , Mrs Murphy comes to the rescue with a loan , and 2 sets of twins the builders work for nothing , God looks down and helps too , Wayne discovers a hidden cellar underneath the cellar , its full of 40year old whisky left over from the war WWII , the pub was where the local black marketeer left everything . Wayne and family are saved .

The Undertaker has a feud with the traffic warden for putting a parking ticket on his hearse.On the way there' a Jazz funeral , a teddy bear called Patrick , a dog called hairy Amjit who has a mind of his own . The Undertaker’s sons leaves the business and Percy is at a loss , his son returns with a Prodigal Son plea for forgiveness , "Father forgive me , I now know that computers are not for me , there is no love in computers , but in our business there is love and compassion .

The Undertaker tries to blackmail a bent builder who is going to demolish the street of shops where they all live . Peace is restored so the Undertaker becomes the election agent for the builder and takes him on a tour of all the rest homes , so that the builder ends up getting into the Houses of Parliament . The dodge bookie Smiling Paul has a bet on the election and wins 1million pounds. The Undertaker is furious until her hears that Smiling Paul had a road to Damascus experience and gave away all the money to help save the Chinese restaurant business of his Chinese friends . So Smiling Paul becomes a man of honour , and gets a stunning girlfriend on the way , because the Chinese must honour him . 

The writing is funny and tongue in cheek , if some readers see it just as a ma and pa book then good , but if they step back they will see that I'm gently poking fun at my characters . Such as Big Sid the butcher who is like a year around santa . Patrick the baker is trying to have a love life but all the street knows his every move . His mother is relieved when finally he meets the right girl , a virgin , who turns out to be the only daughter of the man who saved the bakery many years before , to Patrick's mum its a miracle and the will of God .

Bible belt people , simple honest folk will love the book , and forgive Patrick's stupidity because , heck he's a good boy . The New Yorkers and California will love it too because they'll just laugh at the other side of the tale , The Butcher The Baker and The Undertaker is for everybody , and in translation it will find a bigger audience . I finish with a poem from Percy the Undertaker 


The Dead and The Living (c)

by

Michael Casey

I first saw a deceased when I was nine years old ,my father said not 

to worry as the dead are the same as the living , only the laughter 

has left them , the sparkle has gone from their eyes , the worry has 

been lifted from their shoulders , and their voice has vanished to 

eternity .

In paradise the sparkle will return for it is the twinkle of the 

stars , the laughter will return too for it is the morning breeze and 

the turning tides are their sides shaking with laughter .

I treat the deceased with the same courtesy as I give to the living , 

though I find the deceased are always more polite . My father also 

had a few words to say about the living .

He said that the living are only the caretakers of the soul , yet 

they think their existence is everything , that they know everything

because they experience many things with their senses . 

What the living don't acknowledge is that their time is short and 

when I lay their bodies to rest then their souls continue without 

them , without their strong , without their weak , without their 

beautiful or even ugly temporary form , to where I cannot say , only 

that it is a better place .

Percy the undertaker placed the lid on the coffin ,the soul was free

THE BEGINNING


That's all , now make me an offer
