now then Martymont, i knew Colin very well , and Micky, he had a brilliant collection of dub records, me and colin went ta stay with him for a bit in Southend, we 'd just hit the clubs and go daft, like ya do when ya away from home,
My Dad still lives in Nevinson with wor kid, he's working away at the moment, hes comming down ta see me when he can, he's been here before with me dad, i said to him "Are ya staying at mine or have ya booked in somwhere" and he said "Wa just Gana wing it and drink wa way Doon" my dads 86
when they came down wa had ta put my father on halfs
he went balistic, he said "I taught ya all how ta drink" and he kept swapping it for wor kids pint when wa went for a fag
he left the pub were i was working at half past two in the morning, brilliant man,
Now, The "Fad" that was our watering hole in them days, couldn't get away with the "Duster" (Unless we got bared out of the Fad) Me, Kev, Billy, Grampi, Andy Roach, Bri King, Steady, The Sulivans, Jeff Elliot, Bumper, Deka (Hiya Deka) and their John, Haley, Colin Mac, Muffa, Bri and Steve Ford, and the lasses as well, Do you remember when old McDonald had the Fad, they wouldnt serve us with Broon Ale in the lounge cos we used to kick off all the time
ya couldn't get moved in there on new years eve, ya had to wait outside at 6 o-clock if ya wanted a seat, then we would all get ratted and pile into the church next door, (Only cos it was warm) and then spend the rest of the night lookin for a party in someones house
we would just knock on the door and just say "Billy said wa could come" and they would let us in, ( we'd just stick 4 cans of Kaliber on the table and drink all their spirits, get even more lashed and then dish off and find another house ta raid)
we used to end up at Micky Harvey's house, till we got chucked out
Happy days eh, I think half the lads in Whiteleas got slapped off their fathers for hanging around with us, ( i'll be honest, i was a bit of a tearaway then) i saw Micky Sullivans dad Batter him cos he saw him talking to me one time, and Mickys dad was a big man, i'm wafflin on a bit now
got a night off so i'm just chillin oot ! i'm gona write a book about them days, it's alright lads ill change the names to protect ya reputations
Thats me done for now !
