By Trevor Rutter who is a retired Chartered Surveyor originally from London but living in Hampshire since the 1970s. He is a member of Chandlers Ford u3a.
Trevor’s talk is entitled ‘Billy the Kid and other Bad Eggs’ ; all too frequently crime is glorified and unsavoury characters including psychopathic murderers are elevated to the status of folk hero.  The talk aims to explode the myths that have grown up around a number of these bad eggs including Al Capone, Ronnie Biggs, Ned Kelly, Dick Turpin and of course Billy the Kid
