Reformed gangster Paul Ferris has revealed he is now living back home in Scotland after years in London - but has no fears over his safety.He claims the gangland figures who wanted him dead are either retired or dead themselves.In an exclusive interview with the Daily Record, Ferris said: “Home is Ayrshire.“I’ve been back in Scotland five months and it is kind of strange to be back.”Asked if he has to look over his shoulder, he said: “That’s all in the past, mostly anybody is dead or retired or they don’t want to know.“I used to tell people I go to Halfords, buy two wing mirrors and put them on my shoulders.

Now I’ve got no enemies and I’m happy to be back in Scotland doing what I’m doing.”Ferris revealed in yesterday’s Daily Record that he is now finished with crime - and warned the current generation of gangsters they are in a losing battle thanks to new hi-tech police tactics.But he says he lives every day with regrets over his own life of crime.The dad-of-five said: “Everyone has regrets.

I probably regret most of all not being the best father.“I missed a lot of my own kids’ childhood and you can never get that back, but what I’m proud of most is my sons who never followed my path.“They broke the link from me being involved in serious organised crime, my dad being involved in serious organised crime and my grandad being involved in serious organised crime.“Going back and in the 1940s just after the Second World War, there was a black market that my dad facilitated through eggs and chocolate, the silk stockings and demob suits.“My dad was an armed robber.

I’ve been visiting prisons since I was nine years of age.“I had lawful employment when I left school. I was a van boy for a subsidy of Newcastle Breweries called
