Wayne plays the drums, is mostly deaf, and also writes music. Elvin plays an old double bass with the assistance of his small falsies. He lost a couple of fingers in the Navy several years ago and has fashioned himself with fake finger extensions so he can continue to play his double bass. Steve plays an old Fender Stratocaster and loves playing old Rock and Roll. The problem is Charles only knows classical music. So they start playing their original music at a small bar down the road for fun. Kipper, a local DJ, records their music onto a disc and then submits it to a local contest.
When things get out of control, Steve, being familiar with and longing to revisit the Philippines, decides the Fossils need to tour and hide out from British promoters there.

Fossils: Viagra, Snuff & Rock 'n' Roll by Robert A. Webster
Until one British journalist happens upon their trail in Cambodia. This imaginative story is a randy romp of debauchery and a unique read where you never know what is about to happen next. British spelling conventions and slang. Adult situations and language including several F-bombs. May have received a free review copy. I did come across a small number of proofing issues that included extra words, missing words, and wrong words. Hilarious and sometime touching tale of four old musicians discovering a new way of life.

The man who she could always depend upon and the man whom she never imagined would end up this empty shell. Charles stared out of the window over the manicured lawns.
Fossils: Viagra, Snuff & Rock 'n' Roll
His room smelt like the rest of the place. For Charles, it was not, or never would be, home, and he hoped his stay here would be short. He gazed around the garden and watched a bumblebee disappearing into a rose. Reappearing moments later, it clumsily flew past butterflies airing their brittle colourful wings.
His mother was an opera singer, so he had gained a love for music from an early age. Charles was twelve-years-old when his father was killed in Ireland. His mother encouraged, and tutored him, into becoming a vocalist, but having deformed vocal chords, untreatable at the time, gave his voice a gravelly sound. She knew he would be unsuitable for classical singing, so she bought him a Steinway piano. That opened up a new and exciting world for young Charles.
He practised hard and became a talented pianist. Charles was twenty-two when he met Mary. She was auditioning for a violinist position in the orchestra. Charles and Mary grew close and after a short courtship, married. Mary hailed from Cleethorpes on the Lincolnshire coast of England. With property prices being cheap in the seaside resort, they bought a five-bedroom house on the outskirts of town.
They performed with the Liverpool Philharmonic for four years before Charles accepted a position in the prestigious London Philharmonic Orchestra. However, she fell pregnant after their second tour, with their first child, John. Charles spent the next few years touring the UK and abroad, while Mary remained at their Cleethorpes home raising John. She gave birth to two more children, first Lorraine, followed by Peter, a year later. The years passed, and with Charles spending most of his time away from home, he and Mary decided that he find work closer to Cleethorpes.
He taught music at a local college, where he stayed until retiring. They spent evenings with Charles playing his piano with Mary playing her violin. Charles relaxed back into his chair and recalled events leading up him living at the residential home. He thought about his uncaring children. Charles glared at his son and said nothing, so John sighed and went over to speak with his brother and sister.
The family organised everything without involving Charles, who, although angry when he found out, said nothing, not wanting to accept the inevitable. After the wake finished, Charles was alone in the house. He played his piano and drank himself into a stupor, thinking about his life and his emptiness without his rock, Mary. John arrived mid-morning and went over to his father.
Charles got unsteadily to his feet, went upstairs, and got into bed. Family members turned up throughout the day to help with the move. Lorraine had brought food for Charles throughout the day, which went uneaten. That evening, Charles walked around his empty home, desperately wanting to join his beloved Mary.
See a Problem?
John and Lorraine arrived the following morning to collect Charles. They led him from his house and drove forty minutes to Fossdyke residential home. With a cheery grin, he went over to Charles. I never heard about that. What type of music do they play? Steve laughed and said. Come on, before the ribs get cold or the other old farts scoff them all. Charles looked at the comical character who resembled a weeble toy.
He realised that he was persistent and would not take no for an answer, so he got out of his chair. The chatter in the dining room stopped when the pair went in, with all eyes focused on Charles, who fidgeted and looked uncomfortable.
