The Dursleyites Mick Deal

The summer of 1981 was the summer of love for Mike Sabbath. As he and his steadfast teenage companions struggle to come to terms with adulthood upon finishing school, they embark on a venture to rescue themselves from the drudgery of their uninspiring jobs. Yet there is danger ahead. As Mike Sabbath and his friends come under threat from a renegade group of mods led by the merciless Ally Bingham, they are forced into an alliance with the town's 1950s nostalgia groupings; the teddy boys known as the Hound Dogs, and the rockabillies who call themselves the Stray Cats. Subsequently under the protection of the 'Alliance' Mike Sabbath and his cohorts attempt to continue their realisation into manhood. Amid the mayhem the young and somewhat vulnerable Sabbath, an idealistic daydreaming peacenik, pleads only for harmony. But harmonious relations are not on the agenda for the gangs of Dursley.
