The Shark-Infested Custard

Steinberg, Sybil (1987). "Charles Willeford: An Interview," in The Big Book of Noir, ed. Ed Gorman, Lee Server, and Martin H. Greenberg (New York: Carroll & Graf, 1998), 313–316. ISBN 0-7867-0574-4 In case you did not, as I didn't, "get" the title, The Shark Infested Custard takes its title from what Willeford calls an "old Miami riddle": "What is sweet, bright yellow, and extremely dangerous?" Apparently there is also a British kiddie TV show called this, after the same joke, which seems odd considering how well the title worked to convey the lethal sleaze of 1970s Miami. In other words, so far it's pretty awesome. I've already learned a new (to me) term, "strange," my new favorite-ever slang for pussy, and one of the main characters' outfits was described like this: Hill is a supporter of the Labour Party and canvassed for the party during the 2015 general election.

If you’re a daredevil baker seeking your next thrill, or perhaps planning a devilishy Miss Marple style murder, then we have the recipe for you. Scroll down to find our deviously delicious Elderflower Custard Creams. Honestly, they’re to die for… In 2008, he won two BAFTAs, and another in 2009 for Best Entertainment Performance. In 2009, he won two British Comedy Awards, making it his sixth award. He also won again in 2011, but was unable to be there and sent Wagbo to collect it on his behalf. He was also nominated for 3 other awards, including the People's Choice Award, which was won by Miranda Hart. Savannah and Stefan, the squirrels who lived in the acorn tree, saw Maximus in the water too. They tried to swing across the stream on a branch and grab him but he was too low in the water – they just couldn’t reach.I recently got into a really embarrassing fight with a stranger on facebook when I overreacted to moralizing about my refined sugar consumption and other vices; I count books like this among the things I love that are shameful and likely giving me cancer. Recently I've stalled out on books with any nutritional value or moral virtue, and The Shark Infested Custard was the perfect antidote to that, basically a KFC Double Down topped with whipped cream and washed down with scotch. If you've recently quit smoking, drinking, sex, pills, or pretty much anything else fun, this might be a good read because a) it feels deliciously bad for you and b) it makes all those things I just listed seem totally gross.

Hill married artist Magda Archer [31] in 1996, in Wandsworth, London. [32] They have three daughters: Kitty Clover, Winifred Millicent and Frederica Aster, [31] all born in Kensington and Chelsea. [33] Hill and his family live in Whitstable, Kent. [34]

If someone reads this book and doesn't think of Elmore Leonard's novels, he or she hasn't read Elmore Leonard. The setting and the substance are pure Leonard. I'll give Willeford (on my first foray into his work) credit for a great imagination and for his no bullshit realism. But Willeford seems less focused on the crime and its aftermath than Leonard always is. Willeford wrote The Shark-Infested Custard in 1993, but it feels as if it's set in the 70's, with the sexual revolution fresh in the air, and with something of a psychedelic plot line that wanders significantly. But it's always entertaining. In October 2001, Hill moved to ITV in a lucrative deal, in which he created an all new show, Harry Hill's TV Burp, where he would take a look at the week's television, showing clips from various British television programmes, and framing them with funny commentary or intercutting additional footage.
