IF Justice in this UNIVERSE exists, and I FEEL it does, I aim this at people who have done HARM, before or recently to those I care about or against me & my F&U n.g.o…. it fits & they shall suffer;
“The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil & jealous men.
Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children.
And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would poison and destroy my brothers & our children. And you will know my name when I lay my vengeance upon YOU!”
Who am I?

Idiots & more RONS may scoff… when I write (about “Murphy”)
…& The alternative “Mr Smith" this WAS/is the "TRAILER" of a TRUE story...
like so many heroes & anti-heroes or "mavericks" there’s always an alternative story
the film "Matrix" had one of the "agent Smith:..
this is our version.. a true one... (coped from #ChRiSlive $REdGEMnet)
<now2bAlien">
a universal spirit chose a family from the Island north of europe (Britain) to host a child born to a mature couple who had survived WW2 and he became the youngest , by 10 years born into that socialist home..
An intense child, who suffered from migraines.. who listened to the exchanges of his parents and his brothers & sister , he was 10 years their junior..and alone in his room, studied science fiction, addicted to SF TV like "space patrol" and later "Star Trek"
At age 10 studied Strategies of WW2 generals ...and was "at home" when playing 007 with his neighbours...his mother told him much about life, who was engaged in socialist politics he loved her & his honest, quiet but strong father. he soaked up info..but..
migraines stole school time.(often having to spend a whole day laying on a bed in a dark room because the pain was fierce) .. but when fit would spend all day playing football in the fieldsor acting out imaginary stories in the empty concrete post ww2 AA bunkers...(many years after, huge concrete shells , minus the guns, of course!)

CS> “in the previous (“first book”?) no, I have written much in the past its just scattered through so many different logs & websites ... as usual I am writing for me as my children don’t even know where I am, they don’t know me, ...who does...?”
its an element also or reaction of my life choices always "action man" & on the move (more difficultto hit a moving target) (music on the radio GOOD ? lessons in Love , Level 42 )
in the previous (!) .. piece of my puzzle (who/what am i?)
i wrote about now and some reflections back to my teenage years,,,
as I moved into my twenties.. after the shock of GG leaving with the kids ("bored because i worked too much”_) ...i had a chat with Allen (an Isis boss) and told him I was going to channel my energies into my career..this wasn’t for his sake I was telling myself ....the hurt of losing the kids from my life (more than the bitch GG) was typical of my style..
and although footy was becoming more difficult to play with my work commitments ( I was in the office every Saturday, with no extra pay, simply my choice) ....I still had the Canvey Team, & Leigh, and they were great .. then I hooked up with Gaye (family Martin) her sister Julie was going out with Mike Wood ( an ex schoolfriend ...) //
I was confident of my abilities and HUNGRY for responsibilities... at Isis shipping ltd Peter King was commercial manager, but soon I over took him and also managed the accounts, tariffs & shipping programmes/....at 22/23 I knew more about ISIS shipping ltd than the 2 managing bosses (John Finch & Allen) Mitchell ...
The footy lads rallied round, Dave Thorpe, a team-mate, moved in to share the house,, it was big, with 4 Bedroom. I borrowed one of the lad’s lawnmower as the grass had grown.. which led to my temporary nickname ( I was team captain still) /// " Captain Lawnmower” an ironic version of Capt. Hornblower from the naval character_ & film/….
We (the Canvey football squad & fans) went on a boating holiday to the Norfolk broads with 2 boats and I unwound with Gaye, who was more like a friend, than lover, a very supportive partner ...i was also good for her. As she was a shy lass...
then another "office drama" gave me a NEW life lesson./////
I went into the office (Barking Essex) early on a Saturday as usual ( i like the quiet, and a chances to clear up & get on top of anything that I had not been able during the week..
But, the open plan general office had all the chairs on the desks and the cleaners were polishing the floor,///about 6 or so of us were fuming , a “wasted Saturday”, and the bosses didn’t bother to mention it/// , we sat in the side room drinking our tea/coffee and of course more moans came out...
after about an Hour I asked "ok so what are we ging to do@ (well we knew John & Allen were against "Unions" .... so Paul, Glenn & I agreed that we would simply LIST things that we felt should be improved and see them at 08h monday morning... to meet in the corridor between the gen office/and their Directors room at 07/45hr
but , I was always early... so I am in the office about 07 h and around 07,30/07.45 sauntering around the corridor...when Allen comes walking through... we were on first name terms... he asked... "ChRiS why are you hanging around here , something wrong?" ...
I was full of adrenalin ... "ready for battle"
waiting for Paul & Glenn... "WE NEED TO SEE YOU" I blurted out... he half smiled, "ChRiS? i see no "WE" I only see you, do you want a cup of tea? ",,, the directors room had its own kitchen...
So I was in the Lions den , alone...and just started my "presentation" when JOHN, the least friendly of the 2 came walking in, not too pleased that I was drinking Tea in their office, it seemed... " something triggered my attack" so I just let them both have it... " I wasted my Saturday ...and , this , and that is wrong ..and "... //... after about 5 minutes of non stop aggression (i dont think i swore but the tone was enough!) I paused…
Although I was good at my job, & confident, I thought maybe I had gone too far, they shut the door.. (no Paul or Glenn nor anyone else ..it was now about 08h..) ..."Well. ChRiS you are obviously upset, and we dont like Unions BUT we do need some communication & exchange with staff... so, would you like to be that person?" //…….
MY confidence grew... "wow. hold on, I am not going to be your yes-man and convey just what you want, what about what I/we want? what authority do I have to negotiate??"
John said " that’s fair, we will accept certain flexibility on your part as long as you can continue to act reasonably...
So, at age 23 I was "staff association organiser/negotiator" AND THIS EXPERIENCE TAUGHT ME SO MUCH ABOUT THE BOSS MENTALITY AND THE HERD’s attitude...!!
(… hold on BAD story of Ronnie Biggs the “one armed bandit?” ..a nickname for a slot machine is a “one armed bandit” .. they have a different machine in the reception at BP, not with arms but still a bandit that steals the workers cash & the boss here loves them to play it..U can’t beat those things)
bye bye new company car & Isis!....
on reflection I perhaps did SO much wrong with my career dominated success (and left behind the people I should have cared MORE for, Jacqui & my parents, & Adam ?) that all these "dramas" of THIS life are retribution of "the OTT god" from that life???
so... back to Isis shipping (oh if i had known the name would be so significant decades later. Isis!) ... I was King of that office, there was a small group of 20 something middle managers , although I was discrete in my corporate / staff association leadership, even George Collier, general manager ( whom i compared & related to the “colonel blake” in M A S H tv series ) didn’t seem to have my command...
Jeff (hairy) ,(Graham (sarcastic) Paul (Naive assistant to George, was “Radar”) and myself would abandon our posts most Friday mid-day and go off to the the big music/stripper club on the other side of Barking, several pints of beer and about 3 hours later, George would again moan.. but we were all good managers’, we never left anything hanging for him to do. ../he just felt he should say "something" ..we smiled, he knew, we knew,….
I had been there a while (years) and taken over from \Peter Kind. They gave me a brand new company car...so , the next summer decided to take gf Gaye to Bretagne / then down to Bordeaux to meet Daniele Duniau's family and holiday in that region too... but..
on the first day, visiting L'Haridon transport mananger (a Scot; Alan), we had a good lunch ..& after went for a drive in the countryside of Brittany, there had been some light rain,, and the car slid off the road as I took a curve , onto the grass verge & flipped & rolled ...and ended up a twisted wreck...steam from the engine made it seem like smoke...(from nowhere people were at the fence of the field, one woman screaming..) and then I noticed something weird,,,
our 2 PASSPORTS had been on the top of dashboard,,, were STANDING UP SIDE BY SIDE IN THE MUD, for a moment i just imagined a film camera panning to the scene,,, luckily...neither of us was hurt, the uk had, just recently had before our trip , brought in obligatory seat belts and Gaye had just a scratch on her chest and I....nothing...
I found a phone box |(no mobiles then) called Alan who replied "leave it with me , i know the local police") ...so that was it I thought end of holiday, we had a lot of stuff in the car & I wasn’t looking forward to carrying it all back to St Malo. And home.. but we were invited to dinner at big Boss L‘haridon’s villa that night...and he was great ...he asked his wife if she minded sharing her car with him for a few days and threw me his new Citroen CX 2000 (?) keys and said "enjoy Bordeaux" ..
WE did ..with family Duniau & the Pyrenees,, but Allen of Isis wasnt so happy with me... I called in to tell him that there would need to be an insurance claim and the location of the garage in Brittany were the car was ...he was angry, I was cocky, and responded " BUT WE are Ok Allen!" ..
the first day back at Isis, I went to him, and asked about replacement of my personal transport , but he replied… "you can share the old van, when its free" .. I had a major role in that company. And i said, please Allen, I require a new car, its covered by your insurance and I need a personal car, …. he implied I had to wait, so I SAID " ok I AM Gone" AND LEFT ISIS, THERE & THEN ..! ..SILLY , REALLY , a clash of Ego, unusual with Allen, who was usually calm and clear & friendly to me... I KNEW I WAS THEIR BEST EMPLOYEE! ...but young & arrogant ...!
stardate 😊 20202 ( I had been writing the above..the day before)
fresh , but sunny morning.. had a few dreams in the night...
made me think about Jacqui...
I was often in London for meetings and wine trade functions etc... often collecting GF Gaye from her office and sometimes before taking her back to my (our) home in nearby abbey wood , would be invited for a quick drink in their boardroom with her boss (a virtual alcoholic)
.....Jacqui was Gaye's BEST Friend ...she very was attractive, and so was her character , but there were also older attractive ladies working at their insurance brokers,, (older Jill? also caught my eye ) I got to know most of the staff ( including Mike Hunt ;) ….////.... so I got invited to their next Xmas party...it was almost 5 years since I had divorced and Gaye and i were good together... we had an easy loving friendship. No complaints.. she even came to watch me play footy in the rain!
So, Jacqui & her FIANCE had been to our apartment for a party, we had socialized a bit together... he was a bit LOUD , cockney/// ... but seemed ok///... but I saw he was drunk at their firms xmas Party, he was mouthing off at the rich (the venue was an expensive west-end location with dining & live band for dancing)... I agreed with much he said but was it a good time to come out with it at their xmas party? hmmm //... anyway,I calmed him down & took him into their restaurant garden to cool down...
When I came back into the room. ..I saw Jacqui was nearly in tears, and some good dance music came on, so I grabbed her hand and almost pulled her onto the dance area and tried to cheer her up ... then half way through the music slowed and i felt "protective" taking her in my arms for a slow dance... and then it HIT me ... I looked into her eyes and smiled she smiled and I fell....into her....WOW! like magic!
So, i sat her back down fairly quickly , and sat at the opposite end of the dining table , I think I was talking to someone...but thinking to myself " NO NO NO that’s Jacqui, MY girlfriend’s best friend...and she is engaged and I am happy !!! " """ ..... so the evening passed ///...and i did my best to "file it away" ...
A couple of months later there was a general train strike..
WE all had to come in from the suburbs , Gaye had been at her parents and couldn’t get in one day ... I had driven in to the city... Gaye called me at the office " I couldn’t get there, BUT Jacqui travelled in from her parents, but cant get home, COULD YOU help take her home" ??? what could I say ..
and I was getting measles! ...
Because of the traffic it took about 3 hours to get to her parents and inside I AM FALLING for her all over again as we sat all that time together in the car,,, Jacqui didn’t react, but it felt too easy being with her... (as I am screaming in my head "NO No NO , you cant do this!" ) and I felt measles on my skin!!
Then/// …
(after the drama I shall detail)
in 1979 we started S & S Ltd , and one of my first business trips was to visit the Container transporting/shipping company of Seawheel at Ipswich... to negotiate our annual contract as they were going to be transporting a lot of the Italian wines ////....
There were still some train strikes. resulting in many of the main roads in & out of & around the London/Essex area being congested/// so , after a GOOD productive meeting for my own company I didn’t want to sit in a traffic jam, I took a country road back from the Suffolk/Essex region.. and then it was if my car had its own mind... i was listening to my music tape on the car stereo, some soul music I think... and there was the sign for Wickford , where Jacqui was staying with her parents (before getting married to her BF!) ...
I just drove straight to that house, not sure if she was there (no cell phones) ... and knocked tentatively on the front door... her mum (Joan) came to the door... she knew me because Jacqui & Gaye were BEST friends! ...asked in a suspicious tone " and what DO YOU want@ ? " /// i just about managed to reply " could i speak with Jacqui????"
(she WAS there!) ///....
Jacqui came to the door with the same question... " I LOVE YOU!" I blurted out....
She invited me in...we talked a lot, and she had guessed my feeling and also felt something.. but was due to get married in a few months. which she cancelled, one of the hardest things to do was then to tell Gaye, who I loved , but I was DEEP INLOVE with Jacqui... we were married 4th October 1980..
and Gaye stayed friends... eventually/////..
////... next ( Isis to INT express to Essel to//// S & S!!!)
(as an aside...during that meeting when I was presented with the International Round Table award. It was in Bordeaux, a city & region i was SO familiar with due to earlier wine trade experiences & a few holidays / visits with/to family Duniau ..
I first met Danielle when she worked for the Bordeaux agents of Isis shipping ...(Ltd!) ;)
we became friends, when I took personal time out to show her around the area near London when she visited the company (Isis Shipping Ltd! )
... so when I was in Bordeaux and had been virtually OUT of the wine trade for a few years by then (and after the Linda/Mike shock in 86) had focussed on "re-development" of my ideas ) ...decided to call her /her family from the hotel in Bordeaux, her son answered, and after a polite exchange , I asked for his mum...
" he said (I cant recall if we spoke French or english at the time) "she died" ..I was shocked.. he went on to explain thatshe had some rare viral disease and had died suddenly the year before ..she was probably still in her (late) thirties and such a vibrant lady...so French & feminine in a positive sense...but open to be international too
/…..it hurt , like LOSING a member of my direct family ... (for anyone of my generation, she had looks similar to French (almost soft porn) film star "Emanuelle" whose films were often on Tv late at night..
I had met an Electronics genius at a club :social dinner: dressing up in dinner suit ("smoking") and.
there would be a table with random guests , a fine dinner at an expensive hall, and on this occasion. an elctronics "genius" (John Portsmouth) was sitting next to me, there was a "tasteful" striptease artiste in between the boxing matches , and one young business man on our table, got "invited" on to the stage, as usual with me, there was always "something" happening
... but all JOHN did was moan... " I cant make profit, I have great inventions, and sell well (he was supplying the regional police with "ice detectors" for their cars,.for example!) but at the end of the year, my company always seems to be in debt...(slightly) " ....I just eventually told him, something like " ok this is a sort of business event, but lets have a good time, give me your card, and I will visit you, just to see if there is any ideas to help, NO OBLIGATION..."
I went to him (Maldon, Essex, not far from London, on the east coast) and it was obvious...I told him that if he agrees I will come to him and manage the company, freeing him to focus on electronics, and employ his wife part time together with a part time secretary to answer phones/administrate AND chase their customers for payment of invoices (no one did this) I " I forbade JOHN from answering the phone, my fee? if he made profit, that next year ..i would be paid... the company did, and i got paid well, and BEST of all, he told all of his contacts.,..
very soon I was going all over Europe & dealing with some requirements in Asia & New York, many aspects were technical/electronics/media related, but I also gave personal advices to corporate leaders & entrepreneurs of ANY trade..so picked up more & more experience...then led 3 of my clients to take over "CES" a group of telecom/security companies whose managing directors had left taking a million cash with them abroad
... the company was "on the market" for a MILLION GBP, I got it for OUR group, (I led 3 client-companies; John’s & 2 others who by chance were suppliers of "CES" ..which gave me a couple of aces to play in negotiations...) for ONLY 70,000 GBP!!! yes I was/(am) that good... ;)
I as acting C.E.O of the new "C.E.S" / Salus group ... made (directed & script-wrote) a marketing video , managed the company for several months until there was a sudden recession and the government telecom / security contracts literally dried up..to NOTHING! ..
BUT I had MORE experience and a taste of the telecom/security/electronics world and got a contract (at 6000 GBP a month to consult for Videotronics ) and they become one of the 10 ten of that industry (see my international security directory) ... but Uwe Bischke (the german owner ) was a dictator, and we parted around 1988 ...so I decided I NEEDED a protect to "end all projetcs" that could OCCUPY my imagination and keep me busy for the remainder of my life..,.
SO i created "GEMnet" (to network a co-operative with 300 business partners in 45 nations, with 500 online services via satellite (UKRAINE space agency, Kiev) network, and a mobile laptop (costing only 200 USD) by 1995..backed with a 6 billion USD budget by major national & corporate telecom corporations!!!!)
.....! then drama , drama & 7 years of drama, experiences, experiments excitement , fun ..and (to be continued)
So having "resigned" from my first Empire, and had my 2nd empire STOLEN... I started again..
I had spent the 25,000 GBP cash from part of Seabrook & SMITH Ltd token "settlement" in 6 months ...anyway I still had membership of social / business clubs / IOD / and was invited to join International ROUND TABLE (as included in another chapter, I become their European co-ordinator (“international officer”) & "Round tabler of the Year" in 1990 (Bordeaux)
(pic?)
https://cser5.blogspot.com/2022/02/updating-puzzle-of-chrris-then-now.html
ChRiSlog ...
so ...the puzzle continues
after Linda, (who also moved stock from (what) wine warehouse to Seabrook s account at another place! (just to rub salt in my wounds) the "officers of the court" (a bunch of jackal lawyers) had also taken all the wines stacked in our house hallway (sent to me from suppliers to test) arguably they were my property but the all-inclusive nuclear weapon called "anton pillar moravi injunction" covers everything, except the clothes were wearing, as I said they had simultaneously RAIDED our corporate lawyers, accountants, wine bar & warehouse, and of course (Jaqui's) home ..
that was tough... especially on Jacqui, because they (probably urged on by the "solicitors" ...BTW thats a good word for them, same as prostitutes, they "solicit" !) accused Jacqui alongside me, so she could (although unlikely) have been punished, and maybe imprisoned had they proven the accusations of FRAUD against us ..
The action, however , has so extreme , and as it was MY eight companies accusing us (rather than Linda & brother Mike)
when we eventually got to court , 3 months later..
a) Everything had disappeared;
- cash from the business accounts
- stock from the warehouse
- the wine bar (was now In hands of George Piddel, my then adversary too)
- investment in Stanstead ( as the above mentioned George had persuaded the other shareholding director (Roger) to vote me out of the board.
b) So had Linda, with ....
c) my brother had awarded himself 6,500 resignation settlement, which he said i had caused, by plans to hurt them.
Of course, Linda had been trained by me, and she had learnt something. as I always said "Strategy in business is like WAR, you dont send your planes, then later your tanks, then later your infantry ... if you want to wipe out your opponent, hit them with it all ! " ...and that’s what "HELL have no future like a woman SCORNED" meant ..she wiped ME clean..
The above losses were around a MILLION GBP! ..gone... and once I got my own bank accounts freed, had to pay lawyers 20,000 GBP .. (BTW Ian Timpson, "my" local solicitor, and Richard Baruch (Barush?) both got legal problems , indited for fraud after we parted... Melvyn Plawner , the accountant, possible had problems too... I have always had a friend in "karma" those who hurt me, ALWAYS eventually suffer) ...
Christopher Cuthbert (who worked at the corporate lawyer) had to withdraw from the situation as he (being lawyer for "both sides" ) had a conflict of interest... but privately agreed with (MY only TRUE legal adviser) Mike GEORGE (then of “Ellisons”) who said ... honestly ; "ChriS ..your affair with Linda opened this pandoras box, I sympathise with Jacqui” (our house was more hers than mine , as I was always travelling, away 3 months, back for a week , & off again) ..”.the terms of the INJUNCTION meant that a "COUNTER Claim" would be AGAINST YOUR OWN COMPANIES, ALL YOU can do is take a personal action against Linda for malicious damages..."
However, I had already employed Dave Clarke (security/detective) to try to find Linda to serve her with a writ...for personal & malicious damages, as suggested by M.George, however, she kept moving , as soon as Dave found her location, she was gone... so, I took Mike G's eventual advice and "moved on" ...
After all, I had been a "house-man" for the previous 3 months. Whilst Jacqui was the "bread winner" back at her old insurance job in London... so I enrolled in a course with "SAS" special, to deepen my knowledge of investments & tax aspects etc..and then started to build my "next empire" ...
filed away as EXPERIENCE.... (to be continued..)
Interval??? Before “GEMnet” which is now #REdGEMnet?
