When life hits you below any belt you care to tighten
When you live as hard and as high as anyone has any right to
When most of the people you trust let you down
When all you want is to be allowed to be you
To feel
To hurt
To laugh
To cry
To be at one with a time that just won’t ever happen again.
When you are just about the only person who will ever understand.
When you hit half a century and can laugh and love and just pure live.
Unlike so many before and yet to be, we were born into the perfect age
To be the people that we will always be.
Unique.
Ruby… you lucky lucky thing.
im gonna keep that forever and ever ! Thank you ever so much. and i managed a burns night with orange juice :) ok its a sacrilege, but im sure Robert would understand a rattling woman fullof a mad weekend, with alchol fumes that would knock Tam o’shanter right off his horse :) and what a perfect age is all was. One WAg on Facebook said ” happy birthday auld yin”.. till i reminded him id Seen it, did it, read the book, shagged the tee shirt in ways he will never know ..
eventually ( chuckle i never give ye half a story) my wee lass came and got me, so i showed her, her roots. a bottle o Moet as we sat on the same swings I had sat on when i was full with hope at 8 years old. supposed to get a train at 12,, by 4 pm we were still there.( i did not realise a party was being planned) arrives in Dunndee and 2 bottles ot Moet later, im convinced i HAVE to go to my local.. My god.. The biggeest fuvk off party,,and i started weeping ..
oh lassie. I think I might have just had the most Fantastical birthday.. EVER ! I have pogoed.. skinhead moonstomped and heck,, even did the Macarena.
oh what a weekend mims ! ,, it restores my faith, if not humanity,, then the leverage o pals :) we have laughed and laughed, stayed at a cheap dive in downtown Glasgow.I shared with Karen, and as luck would have it, we had the best room. as in our electricity didnt cut out when we put light on, etc.
went to an auld punk pub and they still had Glasgow Apollo posters and i giggled at Elvis costello, Richard Hell and the voids and the slits for 3 quid.in one karoke bar in Hope street it seemed to be all old punks/ska dudes.. after messaging rudy and fighting laws, the law one,, we hot footed it off to th horseshoe.. I did ” that old devil called love ” got an encore so did Maceys ” i try”..
my pals range from 22 to this ancient age of 50.. but i always remind them i know SOOOOOO much more about music. Architerctually im a history bore.. so i go about telling folks ” oh look at THAT Rennie Mcintosh” building and gasp at Adam structures.I spent this morning. looking at a bridge !!! they were like ” whit ye doing ? “.. and i demanded 2 hours alone..as is my given right at 50. I wa;ked the banks o the Clyde, i looked over dockyards that once rang with men with pay packets.and i took me a wee taxi to a wee park i plyaed in.as a wee lassie.and i sobbed,, big salty tears.. and lost my voice with weeping.
even using the internet is seen as using bbc airwaves.
p.s i pay mine monthly by direct debit.
different laws but in Scotland NO one can enter your house without a search warrant.. thats why Thatcher ( spit) tried the Poll tax on the Scots first. we never paid it. so a more fairer ? tax was introduced. To this day i can declare i NEVER paid a penny Poll tax, and the SNP scrapped the debt !
last words ? he didnt die did he ?
a few yrs in young offenders, out at 18 , new identitys , jobs for life, looked after , this will be their punishment
no he didnt die , in the end tictax. his wee cousin went to help him and he was that sore and blinded with the amount of heavy weights thrown on him.. so he told the younger cousin to run and he would die.. 11 years old ! maan that freaks me out !
oh that is a shocker indeed whoo hoo.. to sytematically beat kids of the same age as streetwise little bastrids.. to have the mind set at 10 and 11 to torture. theur first offence was killing Ducks.
I would put them away for a VERY long time, yet in reality we know its like the Bulger Killers.. 4 years and a new I.D. though i think they will get longer, and id lock the facking mother up too. I hope they get maqximum 14 years and go visit a big boys prison after Young Offenders.
I hope some bigger,harder laddie boots fvck outta them !
