All Stories, Christmas Crime Week 2025

The Horrible Relocation by Marco and Liam Etheridge

Introduction

Three days into the Yule Tide Caper and we are still as clueless as a manufacturer of cluelessness.

Extra Strength, New and Improved Cluelessness. Like that on the face of a Hollywood type when asked to explain Special Relativity.

But fortunately we can shine light on certain misbehaviours that have migrated from one side of the map to the other. Actually “attempted misbehaviours” because sometimes home blood is the easiest to shed but not leave. 

Such is the case of The Horrible Relocation by the father and son team of Marco and Liam Etheridge.

Enjoy, Ho Ho Oh No

  1. Marco and Liam

    This might be the best comic crime story since the days of Nick and Nora Charles, though the MC seems a bit more than a bit anti-social.

    Also congratulations on the fine header provided by Angela this week. Another first rate contribution by her that deserved quicker notice by yours truly.

  2. Hi Marco and Liam,

    Liam it’s a pleasure to realise that you have inherited your dad’s dark wit and intelligent writing. All I got from my dad were Migraines and a taste for whisky. I did bake with him for twelve years but he didn’t pass much natural talent onto me, he bombed me out the water!

    Anyhow gents, it was a pleasure to see this get its day in the sunlight once again. It’s as entertaining now as it was the first time that I read it.

    All my very best to you both and all your kith and kin over the holidays!!!

  3. I do admire writers who can work in conjunction with each other, I just don’t know how you do that but in this case it certainly has worked. Great to see this again and on a day when we can use just a bit of a lift (yes, I’ve just come back from M&S) Thanks for this gents and all the very best to you and yours.

    thank you Leila – I’ll pass on your words to Angela.
