How to get a stockist and set up a stand for my handmade jewellery? Hi everyone, basically I run a small online ebay store where I sell my handmade jewellery however I want to look into ways to expand my business and get more sales. Getting a stockist for my items and running a stand at the annual show where I live are some things I've been considering but I don't know where to start. Does anyone have any ideas or advice for me on these matters? I'm thinking the best way to try and find a stockist would be to go in, talk to them and present myself and bring with me a portfolio showing my items and prices. I'm a pretty shy person though and never done stuff like this before so I'm only just guessing here, so yeah any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot people, Gemma.

What is the best way to build a lemonade stand? My son is going to build a lemonade stand(with help). What is the best way? He would like to make a ply-wood box that opens on one side as a storage space. He would also like to add wheels and a nice large sign. His sister would also like to make an add-on bead-jewelry stand on the side. If you have some extra ply-wood what is the best tool to use? Also should you use nails or screws.And we need to buy Hinges, handles, and wheels(turning wheels) for it. Where could we get those? There is a Home Depot and Lowes near by, could one of those be of help? What would be the best way to present a sign. They want thier primary sign in the air supported by the stand but is it best to have a cardboard(white or brown), paper(any color easy to get at stores) or should we paint on wood? What color sign and color text should we use?

Which Jewelry Stand is Best: Velvet or Leatherette? I make jewelry/necklaces and I want to buy a jewelry bust stand for display so I can take a proper photo with my camera to post on the net. My choices are velvet or leatherette but I don't know which to go with. I mainly use silver and suede strings to make jewelry. Velvet can catch dust but I can use my lint roller and there would be no flash reflection in my photos. Leatherette won't catch dust but I think it would show a flash reflection back. I really like both but to your personal opinion [as a jeweler] which is best for display and mainly for photos? Thank you The stand will be black but I'm thinking white would look nice too. BLACK or WHITE stand? Velvet or Leatherette?

Jewellery Shop? A lady walks into a high class jewellery shop. She browses around, spots a beautiful diamond bracelet and walks over to inspect it. As she bends over to look more closely she inadvertently breaks wind. Very embarrassed, she looks around nervously to see if anyone has noticed her little accident and prays that a sales person doesn't pop up right now. As she turns around, her worst nightmare materialises in the form of a salesman standing right behind her. Cool as a cucumber and displaying complete professionalism, the >salesman greets the lady with, "Good day, Madam. How may we help you today?" Very uncomfortably, but hoping that the salesman may just not have been there at the time of her little 'accident', she asks, "Sir, what is the price of this lovely bracelet?" He answers, "Madam, if you farted just looking at it, you're going to sh*t yourself when I tell you the price."

i had a dream the other night, wondering if it could have anything to do with? okay the other night i had a strange dream i was in a hospital, and i had a 2 month old baby, i obviously hadnt conceived in the hospital because i kept saying 'I need to find the baby section so i can make sure she's alright' The baby had obv just been born and I'd just started taking care of it straight away. Anyway, my boyfriend, kept taking me into the library of the hospital to look up the word 'baby', and i kept saying 'i dont want to know what it means, our baby needs help!' anyway, i ended up getting in the lift to go up a floor, when my aunt and uncle appeared infront of the doors, and my uncle signaled me to come out of the lift, he told me the baby didnt need medical attention, and to go home. I ran out the hospital screaming 'why cant make sure shes alright?' After that, i ended up in the local shopping mall, where my mum works, i went into the shop and she and my cousin were there. My mum asked me what was up, and i told her no one would let me take my baby to hospital. She told me to cheer up, and that she'd set up this jewellery stand just for me, it was filled with pin up jewellery and baby clothes that looked like brillo pads :| I was walking along looking at the jewellery when i looked down and noticed my baby had slipped out the buggy and i was walking all over her. I put her back in the buggy, blamed my mum for making me drop her, and ran crying out of the shop. My aunt and uncle were waiting for me outside again. She said 'i'll come with you' and i told them to F**k off. I never took my baby to the hospital again, I ran to my friends house and sat on their sofa with a cover over my lap and the baby on my lap under the cover. My friends said 'lets have a look at the baby then' i showed them and she was perfectly healthy. As i was showing them my baby i was smiling a big massive smile, and then i heard my mum walk in my room and try to wake me up, and telling me to stop smiling. So i must have been smiling in my sleep as well as in my dream. Is this a sign that I'll be a bad mother, or that im pregnant, or that something else? Im not good at finding out what dreams mean, so maybe some one here will know. Thanks :)
is this first chapter of my book any good? Right i know its long (sorry about that :) ) but is this first chapter of my book any good? please bear in mind its only a first draft but if theres anything i can improve on please tell me!!!! thanks X With a sudden jolt I woke screaming, the fire still engulfed me, the heat and untameable flames swept across my helpless body burning me, pain shooting along my limbs I didn’t understand what was happening, how could I – I was only a baby. Only one thing made sense over the roars of the fire I could hear him calling me, the cries of my father ringing in my ears. The sounds, vision and pain gently started to fade away, as I slowly came back to reality I laid in my bed troubled and disorientated my cheeks were wet with tears. I let out a short sigh – I should really be used to my dreams by now I’d been having them every night for almost 20 years. I quickly recovered but stayed perfectly still in my bed. Although it was still dark in my tiny box room I could hear the birds outside my window. As I struggled to hear the more delicate, endearing calls of the smaller birds over the ugly racket of the crows and seagulls I realised the time and let out an unintentional moan as I pulled myself out of bed. Still half asleep, I caught my foot in a tangle of clothes and fell forward grabbing my bookshelf for support knocking over various items including my jewellery stand, flinging its contents onto the already messy floor. I gave myself a minute to compose my scrambled thoughts before I made the decision to leave everything as it was and go have a much needed shower. The shower was freezing, it was too early to turn the hot water on - the ancient, groaning house would wake everyone else up if I had, nevertheless for some reason I couldn’t stop grinning as I felt the cold water splash against my face, soaking my hair, it left me awake and refreshed if not somewhat chilly. After my shower I hurried to get dressed, feeling the cold more clearly now I noticed the goose bumps on my arms and my teeth started chattering. Hurrying from the bathroom I flung my towels over the bedroom door and brushed through my tangled hair with my fingers then more thoroughly with a brush before I dried it roughly with the hairdryer. Hair. It made me laugh my hair had always been strange, whist some girls wanted blonde hair, others brunette or red I had just wanted a normal hair colour. My hair was blue, not a bright sky blue thankfully but more a silvery blue - still enough to make people stare. It had bothered me as a child when the kids would laugh, bully me, pull my hair and point at me. Nowadays I loved my hair, I’d learned to embrace it and now it was my most loved feature. I often used my hair to show how I was feeling. Today I hummed gently as I looked at myself in the mirror I was thinking braided pigtails. It emphasised my youthful, playful mood I was in. After pulling my hair into the simple design, I put on my makeup and grabbed my silver bracelet slipping it on my wrist. I could hear pots and pans in the kitchen, the kettle boiling and the opening and shutting of the cupboard doors. By the time id made my bed and opened my curtains - the only tidying I managed to do in the morning, despite the fact you would struggle to see my pale pink carpet, - my stomach let out a low groan and the smell of eggs quickly sent me rushing down the stairs. Sure enough Gwen - my aunt - was serving up fried eggs and toast, whistling a tune that I wasn't familiar with. "Morning Brooke " she chirped in her shrill voice and continued whistling away I just murmured in response thinking it was a little rude of me not to give a half decent response but I was too wrapped up in my own thoughts -as I often was 'away with the fairies' as Gwen would say. Id lived with Gwen, her husband XXX since I was 10 months during which time they had three of their own children XXX, XX and XXX. My dad had been killed in the fire that hunted me each night and I'd never known what happened to my mum. I was hungry as Gwen placed the plate on the table in front of me but I took the time to enjoy the eggs, carefully cutting around the yolks trying not to pierce the thin sack and although I answered the odd question from my aunt I ate the eggs nearly in silence giving me time with my thoughts. Bad idea. My unguided day dreaming led to me pondering my dream from the previous night. They had seemed more intense, more real recently and it troubled me, my dreams were usually a good indication of my current feelings and occasionally even how I was going to feel in the near future. Since I had felt fine recently I was a little worried about the next couple of days although I pushed the anxiety to the back of my mind telling myself how stupid I was being. The expression on my face must have told my aunt what I'd been thinking. "what's wrong Hun?" Gwen questioned, curiosity in her eyes. I wanted to avoid questioning so I took a long gulp of orange juice, grabb it a flame flashed through his eyes. An actual flame. Like he was staring into a fire but the fire was actually in his eyes. Gasping I pulled away, forcing myself to stand up. opps i just realised half of its missing : ) im gonna try and put as muchas i can on : ) I wanted to avoid questioning so I took a long gulp of orange juice, grabbed my bag and helmet as I rushed out the door mumbling some excuse about being late. "But you don't have to be there for ages yet" she called out to me although I pretended not to hear her. I pushed my motorbike out of the garage, struggling to hold open the rusted door and push out the bike at the same time. I casually swung the door shut, quickly locked the door with my pink leopard print key and slipped it back under the rock in the corner of the driveway. I was eager to get down to the beach, flinging myself onto my bike I revved the engine and drove down the driveway onto the road past the grand windmill at the end of the road and onto the winding country lanes. It took over an hour to drive to the beach, I looked forward to meeting up with Laura, although we saw each other every day at work, our shifts often left us with few opportunities to meet up socially . I parked my bike next to a rock at the top of the beach, not bothering to secure it as the beach itself was well hidden I didn't need to worry about it getting stolen. I scanned the beach for Laura but she hadn't turned up yet. Guessing I was pretty early I pulled out my phone to check the time and noticed I had a number of missed calls and texts, all from Laura. I read the first text: "Hey I'm soooo sorry but I cant make it today :( my mum pulled me in to help out at the flower shop apparently she's got a big order for some wedding although I reckon she just wanted some company : ) anyway like I said I'm really sorry ill make it up to you some other time - how about next Thursday? Text me back when you get this so I know your not standing around waiting for me! See youu later at work XXX" I quickly scanned the other messages which followed roughly the same trend just getting more and more urgent as the went even though they were usually only within minutes of one another. I laughed quietly to myself, she got so worked up about the smallest of things and wrote a short reply back telling her I got her message and to have fun at the flower shop. I hoisted myself up onto the rock that supported my bike and pulled my knees up to my chest. I had the whole morning until I had to be at work, I didn't particularly want to stay at the beach by myself, and I so rarely got time to myself that I wanted to spend it usefully. I brushed away the purple nail varnish that I'd been subconsciously chipping off my toe nails from my flip flops and looked across the ocean. The waves battered the shore and thrashed against the cliffs but it had a sort of relaxing feeling, I was the only person in sight and the feeling of physical loneliness was peaceful, I could truly be myself with no one else around. My philosophical thoughts were interrupted by the squabbling of a pair of seagulls as they fought over a ver a food scrap. I was quickly absorbed by their acrobatic manoeuvres in the air. One of the gulls was only young, its feathers still greyish and messy and although the smaller of the two seemed to easily avoid the attacks of the other gull and when it spotted its chance sharply grabbed the food from his beak and made his escape leaving the other gull with, what looked like to me although Laura would just say I was being stupid, an embarrassed look on its face. The interruption gave me enough time to give some serious thought on what to do and in the end I decided that a bit of retail therapy would be the best idea as I leaped of the rock onto the soft sand below, got on my bike and chucked on my helmet and headed of towards the nearest shopping centre. Once I arrived at the shopping centre, which was only a short twenty minutes away, I parked my bike in the closest car park, this time chaining it securely to a post. Taking of my helmet I realised it ha actually been raining and rather heavily since I'd parked, I looked up to the sky to find it an angry grey and, although it was pointless, wished it would stop raining. To my surprise by the time I had reached the exit of the car park the rain eased away and had stopped altogether once it reached the high street. Perfect I thought, smiling widely. I made my way to Marmalade, a small family run shop. Despite it not being a large company with numerous stores across the country like the common high street stores, I had found some of my much loved clothes there; a knee length dress with faded sunflowers, a pair of red satin heels and some brightly coloured flared trousers being a few of the items I'd purchased there, I'd always found something in there I liked. Turning sharply around a corner I rushed straight into a guy walking in the opposite direction scattering a pile of books he was holding across the thin cobbled street. I tried to say sorry but it came out an inaudible whisper. He was gorgeous. I came back to earth with shake of my head as I bent down to help him collect his scattered belongings. I tried to sneak a closer peak at his perfect face, but a peak wasn't enough, I saw him and couldn't stop staring. Whether he had felt my gaze or he had just gone to stand up he jerked his head upright to meet my stare. I couldn't break eye contact. It must have only been a moment but the intensity of that stare made it feel like a lifetime, I forgot how to do anything; my legs felt weak under me as if they were about to collapse, I couldn't talk, couldn't move, I couldn't breathe. It was his eyes, a colour I'd never seen before, a red so deep it felt like I was going to burn straight through me. Then, so fast I wasn't sure if I had imagined,
Do you buy "just in case gifts"? Just in case someone turns up? Or do you buy gifts with noone in mind to give it to, just because you like it? Over the years I have done this and sometimes have ended up with a stock of ungiven things. Some do come in handy but some sit there for years. Last year I wrapped several items up and put them under the charity trees at the shopping centre. At the moment I have a doll jewellery stand, a makeup bag, several pretty frames, cups and saucers, candle holders, Christmas bottle stoppers and probably more I've forgotten about. Most of which were bought at bargain prices over the years. Some of them are already wrapped.
What am I doing wrong? Hi, I'm Kevin McCain. You probably recognise me as K-MAC, the famous rap artist and male model. A few people in the industry have criticised my recent music videos and I can't understand why. Basically, all of them feature me in baggy clothes with my pants around my knees and covered in gold jewellery, standing in front of a collection of Italian sportscars together with a number of scantily clad women who are rubbing themselves up and down my leg. How can I improve this image?
Which jewellery brand? Which do u guys like most? Thomas Sabo, Tiffany and Co. or Juicy Coulture? I just received a Thomas Sabo key charm necklace for my 21st birthday. I'm thinking of starting a charm bracelet! I love Thomas Sabo's funky charms and their variety. They seem full of attitude. Yet Tiffany's classic (I love their signature 'Return to Tiffany'!). I don't know which to choose! I've heard people say the quality of both Thomas Sabo and Tiffany's are the same (sterling silver), but Tiffany charms tend to tarnish quite easily. Juicy Coulture has real cute charms but I don't know where does it stand in terms of name, price and quality? Which one should I invest in? :)
Shall I explain why Elflaeda's had a make-over? I've been going grey since I was nine and totally grey since 28, so any colour is a dye (original colour was very, very dark brown - almost black) which is fading fast and getting on my nerves, so Miss Barbosa (Elflaeda) is back to grey before I am. I've also taken her out of the graveyard and put her on a starship, where she is waiting to give guided tours. She's also acquired a taste for gaudy jewellery; why I don't know, I can't stand jewellery, never wear it and don't own any. I couldn't change the glasses though, they only had one pair of clear ones, in all my 39 years of wearing the things, I don't think I've ever had black frames. Queen ... I had a puzzled querie about the change within minutes of doing it, so I thought I would let you all know why.
How to handle an unhelpful jeweller, who won't replace my necklace? It's a hallmarked silver and gold necklace costing £160.00 bought from a jewellers. When it was 4 months old it started to look really tarnished and I called them up and they advised me to get it silver cleaned which I did. It is now just as bad, so I travelled back to the shop. The owner was really rude, saying this is normal for silver and my skin must be oxidising it! I have never heard such rubbish, and all he was willing to do was clean it again and re-finish it. I explained I wanted a replacement as there is no guarantee that this necklace will not tarnish again and again, and that this has never happened to any of my other peices of jewellery.He would not budge, so currently he is cleaning it for me. This was bought for my 40th. birthday present, so I want to know were I stand with regards getting a replacement necklace. Please help

im at uni and do english, ive wrote 5 novels this is my 6th one plz tell me what you think about it? “ Hey, my names Lewis Carters you might of heard of me my nickname is the king of the aces. I’m a two time world heavy weight boxer but these days I am living the true American mans dream. I’m not a man who belongs to a ethnic group who believe the world is there oyster. In fact I’m just a normal guy in retirement spending my last days with my loved ones, my family. I don’t deserve every thing I got in fact I am very fortunate. My lives been a long Rollo caster ride been locked up in the nick for something I didn’t do. Then again I’ve been very extravagant in my life time doing things that an average guy would never do. I’ve pushed my limits so far that now I’m in a black hole wondering why, how, and where? I did all these things. Now me the toughest, and most hard-headed guy in sports world is fearing for what will be the consequence after every thing I do. The situations you would get passed easily like answering the door, and answering the phone and even receiving mail through the letter box gets me cautious. All this because I did bad things but for the right reason. Whenever I think about them its like by body shivers and I literally fill like I have hypothermia. It has been now 3 years since I retired from boxing and it has been 3 years since all these deep and disturbing devilish secrets have been bond aging in my mind. Now I’m going to reveal the truth to all my fans and all them reporters of what happened in my eyes. Its so hard to tell you the agonising story of pain, love, and hatred the reporter I told will tell you in my exact words”. The build up 1999 The streets of New York were quiet, nothing was alive and nothing had motion. It was boxing day half seven in the evening most job workers of the big city were sleeping in their homes tired from all the fuss Christmas day had offered them. The mothers were satisfied with the joys which had been blessed on the families in this time of the year. Also the children who thought Santa existed were chuffed with there top of the range clothes and gifts which had been given to them on Christmas morning, however the family men were still recovering from all the debts that they owed to the manipulating bills and presents they could not afford. To make things worse they were also recovering from the hangovers which had been given to them from the brothers in laws and their obsession always to drink vodka on every celebration. It was a time of year they hated and despised however were hiding it to keep the children happy and keep safe from the desperate wifes bellowing down their ears. They were now looking forward to nothing except a financial disaster for the new year on the other hand they were still praying for one thing. That the conference in the morning for the big boxing fight between the 2 black American fighters Lewis Carters and James Husky went well and the fight was to go forward. By now it was eight o clock, paparazzi were outside the queens park palace waiting for Lewis Carters to arrive at the conference. He would often do this to build suspense in the atmosphere and get all the people from his home town, Brooklyn, to cheer him on when he got there. James Husky was already in the building., he was Lewis Carters opponent and is the heavy weight champion. He has been fighting professional for 25 years and has been undefeated since he had the belt- he has had eight fights since he had had won the title and has either knocked his opponents out within the first two rounds or they have got so hurt in the fight from his deadly combinations of punches that the coaches and trainers have thrown in the towel. It was going to be the best fight since Muhammad Ali and Joe Frasier fought it out in the famous fight known commonly as the gorilla in manila. Husky was a fairly tall man with a muscular build, he had a very quick reacting mind in the ring, he was a powerful puncher and the unordinary thing about him is that he can fight either orthodox or southpaw stance in the ring. He was given the nickname James the power man Husky after knocking Fredson juniour out in the 2nd round with a lethal uppercut which knocked one of fredsons moulders out of his mouth blood was all over the ring and it was classed to be one of the most memorable fights in history. What made it unordinary was this was when he was in the cruiser weight and the power of the punch was the equivalent of Geroge Foremans awesome hooks.. James always stay focused on the aim of the fight which is to win and that integrity and spirit has won him most of his fights. A characteristic which made him stand outside the ring was that he was very crotchety this was also the case after his fights and in public. Whenever he was victorious over one of his fights he would always end up yelling at a bewildered reporter who he would end up either pushing onto the floor. Even though he was like this, it was what made him entertaining to watch and he is known to have one of the most amazing attitudes to live. In the conference room Husky was wearing an black swage suit with a black striped shit and blue aqua coloured tie, he was sitting in there patiently waiting for the conference to progress. While James Husky was inside sitting on lined table on the right side of the room sipping his glass of squeezed lemon, loud chaotic noises were coming from outside. Outside was a large Grey gold plated 550 Ferrari Maranello. It had top of the rand platinum rims everyone in the neighbourhood could hear its engine roaring whilst pouncing foward , it was being blocked by a crowd and the car was unable to move forward so it pulled to the side of the curve and stopped. The passengers door was opened and Bobby Norton approached onto the road. Bobby Norton was Lewis Carters promoter and had been his promoter for years. He was experienced at what he did and was also a promoter of other great fighters like Ben Gills Olympic silver medallist in welter weight and also Benvollio Dulcet heavy weight champion from 1997 to 1998 however he was less popular when he was defeated by “James the power man Husky” in 1998. Norton was a very popular man also known for when he used to be a entrepreneur for many successful training businesses located all over the States and Europe however he gave all his businesses to his oldest son Thomas Norton mainly due to being so busy in his promoting work. On the other hand nobody really cared about his career professions just cared about him being a good looking multi millionaire mainly because of the many privatized companies that he owns. Which could be anything leisure companies, electronics or even a broad way drug racket for a mob living in little Italy but who knows nobody really tried to get on his bad side in public and in the media, due to the several people who have crossed him in their lives have received extra attention from his body guards which isn’t a pretty site. Ferraris back seat couldn’t be seen through because of the tinted windows. Suddenly the doors opened and Jerry Carters came out of the back seat , Jerry was Lewis’s uncle and trainer. Five years he has been training Lewis to become the ultimate boxing fighter, Lewis used to be trained by his father ,Carl Carters, however he was killed whilst locking up the gym on a week night. He was stabbed retentively in the back while locking the gyms front doors. Even though Lewis lost his father at such a important part in his life their dream was to make Lewis become heavyweight champion by the time he reached his Forties. Lewis knew he was undefeated for five fights in a row when his father was killed. It somehow struck him in his mind that whoever killed his father wanted him dead to stop Lewis achieving his potential. He knew it and so did his uncle Jerry and they were determined to become the world most magnificent fighter in the states. Local media stations have been announcing the fight for weeks knowing it will be great, this fight is what Lewis has been waiting for with Forty wins and zero losses. Every time he trained in the gym his father was last seen, every time he goes for jogs he thinks he would never of got were he is if his father didn’t inspire him. So the least he could do I share the dream with his father in the after world to become undisputed heavy weight champion “ Carter the king of aces” he was given this name by his mother when he was only nine years of age because he was acing every completion he went to. The fight will be Huskys hardest challenge and it will be a incredible bout between the two but disputes have been argued saying Carter will knock Husky out in the first round because of his great speed, power and confident personality. Lewis climbed out of the car with a black suit on with a red shirt without a tie. The roaring was incredible all his fans were putting there hands out but he just walked forward not showing just a few respect he believed is you shake one mans hand ,you, should shake every ones. 'Hearing a commotion outside, Husky stood up and strode to the window. Looking down onto the sidewalk, he caught a glance of his fight opponent entering the building. 'Bastard,' Husky thought to himself with a nasty smile as he ambled back to the brown leather chair, 'Going to knock him out in one go.' Menacingly Lewis walked through the brown, oak doors and walked through the lounge which had some newspapers photographers. Willingly to take pictures they snapped away but he ignored every flash . Walking into the main conference room. Shockingly he ran up towards Husky and got ready to throw a hook while Husky was sitting off guard. With quick reactions Husky moved out of the way pushing the chair over and causing a load sensational sound of cold leather touching the limestone floor. “ Man I’m going to kill you in the ring, I’m not going to show no mercy sucker” fire was in Carters eyes when he shouted at Husky. “got some nerve bringing your mans in here acting all big, you aren’t nothing to me ” Husky looked into Carters eyes and gave the same tormenting smile he did when he saw Carters cars coming. “ Think you all big man, your two minutes late” Husky was known for his manipulating remarks towards other fighters. The two monsters tried to grab one each other into a glitch and fight each other in a slugger fight but repeatedly they were separated. Constantly they kept taunting each other. The conference was one of the most disturbing in the whole of the boxing association but it did finish and the fight date was set. Both of them would fight on March 29th, at Maidson Square Garden. Many people were now looking forward to this epic fight, the two fighters were now fighting to keep their pride and determination to carry on their winning streaks. The big fight Exactly three long months had no gone by and both fighters had been training hard and keeping their fitness up especially. It was 26th March, with only three days left till the fight. The morning was bright and the newspaper prints were printing in the publication factories getting ready to distribute across New York. The front page had a bold heading written saying “ Carter v Husky, will Husky win like he says”. “ I cant believe it, look what there all saying” Lewis had a copy of The New York times clutched into both of his hands. He was at home in Brooklyn, sitting in the garden. His house was more of a warehouse, he owned a 3.5 million dollar mansion with over 50.5 acres if land in his back garden. The Carter residence was the biggest in the whole of New York. “ look at all these people look at what they say, there saying I am going to lose. What nerve do they have saying these things, well ill show them on Saturday night. It will be a fight they will never forget. So Jerry what do you recon?”. Thomas Norton his promoter was standing timidly in front of Lewis. “Listen kid, you can say anything to the media. Stop saying things please?. You can say it politely or even threaten them guys. They aren’t going to listen these kinds of media attention get millions of views. Meaning more money for the editors. All you gotta do is prove them wrong by winning the title and bang the money they got comes in your favour”. Lewis gave a bovine look. “ damn is dosh all you care about well guess what I want more. I want to prove them all wrong with my fists not with my money. For all I care you can keep my money I make on the night just get the media of my back”. At this point Lewis was ready to get in the ring and prove every one who doubted him was wrong, his behaviour was pugnacious and you could tell my the derivational facial expressions on his face. “ ok, if that’s what you want then on the night of the fight. You gotta talk total rubbish about him at the official weight in . Im gonna knock Husky out in the first round, oh im going to bury him alive, or even look at his face cause your not gonna see one like that again when im finished. that’s the things you say then in the actual fight you stay by you words and throw the jabs, the hooks the combos and win the fight with points torture him and that’s it you got the fans on your side”. Lewis showed a discourteous manner and was looking at the picture of Husky in the paper. “ I’m not going to talk rubbish about him in the weight in, I’m going to knock him out their and then”. The both of them started laughing with humour. They opened a bottle of fine Jamaican rum and sipped their drink whilst talking about how to deal with any promoters and any reporters. They spoke about how to speak on TV, news etc without letting out to much information about future decisions they were going to make. Both Carters and Husky were under pressure due to the fact their reputation was on the line. Who ever game out on top would become one of the greatest legends in history of boxing and would join the great warriors such as Muhammad Ali, George Foreman, Sugar Ray Lenard and Iron Mike Tyson in his prime. They were training hard in there home towns downtown Brooklyn and Philadelphia. With only three days left the trainers of the two were theorising what their tactics would be in and out of the ring. Tension was building up to the battle and patience was a problem. The two of them would often collide with one an other in talk shows and new broadcasting shows. Lewis walked into his mansion on the way from a conference meeting one day with his promoter and trainer Jerry. The conference was held by the boxing committee warning both fighters if any more dangerous stunts of fighting on media or in public was to happen ,Husky would be stripped off his title, and Carters would not get a title shot until 2001. Exhausted and tired from the conference holder Jimmy Scott going on and on Lewis loosened his tie and top button, it was 10 pm. He walked into his bedroom and dropped onto the bed and closed his eyes trying to close the outside world. “Hey baby” Tina Carter, walked into the room jumping onto the bed to welcome Lewis home with a big kiss on his forehead. He opened his eyes and gave a cheerful smile and both of them exchanged looks with one an other. “ so how was the conference honey did it go well, what did they want to talk to you about?” . “ yes, it was fine oh just the usual do this and do that nothing important” His wife was the only person who kept him going in his job, she was his only inspiration . They were married and had been for nearly 5 years and they loved each other with all there hearts could express. She was a tall black women with long metallic black hair. Her skin looked soft and her body smelled like olive herbs with a golden twist. Lewis treated her as if she was a princess and gave her anything she wanted new clothes, jewellery, gold silver he would even by her a pony if she asked. She was always supporting Lewis in his fights and anything else he did . “ listen, ive been married to you for 3 years now and I know when your happy and when your down. Now I know your down. So don’t lie to me, something happened at the meeting and I want to know what now” she demanded to know what happened aggressively but she still had the beautiful smile on her face like when she came into the bedroom. Lewis took a deep breath and replied “ sorry babe I didn’t mean to lie to you, ok ill tell you what happened at the meeting. They warned us both to stop causing trouble and threatened to destroy our careers and that’s it promise” it was hard for him to tell that to his wife and thinking she would shout at him down his ears he closed his eyes and encrusted them with his eye lids. “ Husky was there as well, the stupid tramp. Baby why didn’t you tell me this I would of understood.”. he opened his eyes and she still had the beautiful golden smile on her face however she lifted her eyebrows expecting a reply. “listen I didn’t want to tell you because I don’t want you to worry and most importantly I didn’t want that lovely smile to go away cause that’s what gets me up in the morning to train., that’s what helps me get through my fights and the last thing I would want to do is stop that”. she started to get an even bigger gorgeous smile on her face and gave him a big hug. “ Im never going to stop caring, treasuring and especially loving you so you can tell me anything in reason and I will think of it to be an honest and true action you have done” The both of them closed their eyes and fell into a deep warm sleep preparing for the busy day they would have to face tomorrow. Half Eight in the morning “Beep Beep Beep” the alarm was going off to wake Lewis up, it was the big day he and everyone else had been waiting for. 29 th March. The fight was going to start and half eight in the evening so he had all day to prepare for it and get to Manhattan, Madison Square Garden. Lewis was still in bed a sleep and was to deep in his dream to wake up this is only 1st chapter and bit of 2nd chapter im going to aim for 80 to 90 chapters to finish novel
