Just back from London town and I didn't realise that the Krays were locked up in the tower of London before being transferred to prison for not doing national service.
Anyway it got me thinking of some of the Swansea connection stories I heard about the Krays.
Have any of u heardknow any? [Post edited 15 Aug 2016 19:08]

He Wanted to buy a house in Swansea (Gower) when he was told he would be released. But was only released when practically on his death bed.

Reggie even admitted that, Ronnie wouldn't.
Freddie Foreman said recently if Nipper Reid didn't take them in they had weeks to live. He also said the worse thing he ever did was meet them (but with a grin) | | | |

Truth is the Krays tried to get involved in Swansea many years ago, but they underestimated the old Swansea Mafia. Derek Wignall and Brian Cornelius battered fvck out of Reggie and Ronnie in the lane at the back of the Townsman, and Malcolm Struel filmed it on his cine camera. |  |

I wish my memory was a little better as the mafia crew used a place I worked in as a kind of meeting place |  |

Talking of the Swansea mafia, I see Jonathan Wignall has been jailed for 3 years for harassing his wife Ruth the ITV weather woman. |  |

Ronnie Kray got a hiding when exiting Jingles on the high street after getting caught up in a row between Blaen y Maes and Townhill that had been fighting all the way up wind street and High street after a night in the Pit. | |

Always makes me chuckle to read this pair of pond life as hard men. Only hard with weapons of offence.
Both would have been blown away in military assessment and training for warfare with a real enemy .
It's a sick British trait to deify villains who should have been flushed down the sink at birth. | |

My mate is one of the Richardson's grand-daughters, lovely woman...bit nuts! She often tells stories of a few of their more 'legal exploits', absolute gentlemen she says even though not around too much as a grandfather.
She used to go on holidays quite often with Roy Shaw and other infamous London names, Roy was a wonderful man she says. Can't remember his full name(Dave ???, lots of bling, big cigar)was an arrogant barsteward, not popular by all accounts.
I often asked stories ref the Krays, never gave out too much tbh...as if it was frowned upon to talk about them. Can't remember if there was a beef with the 2 families or not... |  |
