He played a doting dad at a wedding, but secretly the killing spree cabbie was
HOOKED ON A HOOKER
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

PHYSCO cabbie Derrick Bird played the proudly smiling dad at his son's wedding as he hid a violent obsession with a Thai prostitute half his age.
The ex-nuke plant worker looked every inch the respectable Father while secretly lavishing thousands on the 22-year- old he fell for on holiday.
Dad-of-two Bird who shot 12 people dead and wounded 11 in Wednesday's Cumbria gun rampage, is feared to have flipped over money worries - fuelled by his lust for the pretty hooker.
The last straw for the tax-dodging taxi driverwas a massive bill from the Inland Revenue - and the fear of a prison sentence.
Pal Mark Cooper 45 said ; "He was worried about going to jail"
Brooding Bird 52, armed with a shotgun and hunting rifle set off from his home in the Lake District hamlet of Rowrah to murder all those he held grudges against en route to commiting suicide.
He had already claimed his first victim - his twin David.
Bird was seething that his brother got £25,000 in their dad's will while he was left nothing.
The maniac blasted him in the face as he slept.
Next came the family's lawyer - who he accused of stitching him up over his cancer stricken mum's will,
Solicitor Kevin Commons 60 was gunned down in his driveway.
Then Bird, who is separated headed for the taxi rank where he worked in the seaside town of Whitehaven to blast a fellow cabbies for taking the mickey out of his love for a hooker.
Two had regularly joined him on twice-a-year trips to Thailand's fleshpots.
The group were nicknamed The Bad Boys.
But things had turned sour before last Christmas when furious Bird was deported back to Britain after drunkenly punching a pal at an airport on his way to Thailnand.
Security at Doha airport in Qatar would not let him join the connecting flight.
Bird lashed out at a mate who teased him about money at the departure gate.
A pal said " Birdy saw red and went for him and officials had to step in"
Bird would pick up young girls to bed for around a tenner.
Chris Bulmer 45 owned one of the trio's favourite haunts at Pattaya Beach called Spicy Girls A Go-Go,
He told how Bird became besooted with one of the girls and simmered with rage if he was unable to bed her.
She became so terrified of him that she quit and fled.
Chris who now works in a New York factory said
"He loved the women, he slept with a few of my girls upstairs and soon got a taste for it.
He came with in a pal 7 years ago and came back regularly until 2005.
But in the end he would only want to see one young lady in particular, she was about 22 and pretty and became obsessed.
He loved her and whenever he came back he would immediately find her, compensate the bar and take her away.
She was his and that is how he saw it.
We heard that he was sending things to her from the UK and it was something I always warned my customers about, these are working girls and they are NOT interested in relationships.
He would get very angry if he did not see his girl.
He could so quiet and mild mannered - then just flip.
I knew a fair bit about him and when I heard a cabbie had gone beserk in Cumbria I stared at the telly.
His picture came up and I recognised him instantly, I felt sick.
He told how Bird not only sent the young hooker a fortune from Britain but bombarded her with messages promising to return to Thailand so they could be together.
She refused to reply and ended up so shaken she left the area.
Chris, a dad of one said "It sends chills down my spine thinking what he has done.
I know all the girls will be talking about it too - the scary Englishman that killed a dozen people."
As well as his sex holidays Bird would go on scuba trips with fellow members of the Solway Sub Aqua Club which is based in Egremont - scene
of two murders during his horrific gun spree.
Shocked driver Gary Kennett 57 said " The holidays we took with the rest of the group were just for scuba diving but Derrick and a couple of other taxi drivers would go to Thailand, Derrick and I had talked about the tax problem - he was quite open about it."
He said he was having some trouble but he'd got his solicitoe and an accountant on to it and it all going to be OK.
The Revenue is thought to have been chasing Bird for more than £100,000 he owed.
He COULD have afforded to pay it according to friends.
The former Sellafield worker had £60,000 in the bank, the mortgage on his cottage was paid off and there was no outstanding on his Citroen Piscasso cab.
Apart from his holidays he also lived simply.
But he was notoriously tight-fisted, a fellow taxi driver said " He came to me asking what life was like in prison, how tough it was and whetherhe thought he'd be able to handle it,
He came to me because he knew I had previously been inside for violence.
It was a side of Birdy that I had never seen before, I was taken aback.
I told him he wasnt going to jail but it was eating away at him.
Bird's son Graeme 28 is believed to have known nothing of his dad's secret life when he tied the knot with bride Vicky 20 months ago.
When Bird's roadworker dad died in 1998 it was his mother Mary who was left the bulk of his £200,000 estate.
The will has been seen by the Sun Newspaper
It gives a clue to Bird's resentment, If she had died first , he , David and older brother Brian would have inherited a third each.
