Rite of passage that though, getting smashed and ending up in the middle of nowhere. Remember getting on the last train back to Lewisham, passing out and ending up in ****ing Gravesend at stupid o'clock. Was busting for a **** too
Had a phone call at 2am or was it 3am one morning, can't remember now, my kid went to see some band, might have been Slipknot, missed the last train home. Where are you...Victoria. oh ffs. Thankfully no speed cameras in them days. His mate was with him, but he was too frightened to call his dad.
Jumping on the wrong night bus, not knowing coz the lights are on and the windows are all steamy and you're ****ed Ending up in Haringey when you live in South London Tryna get home without getting your throat slit @Sucky
There's more to it than this though. I always drop him anyway, it's just the Mrs who picks him up usually. (not sure why he can't get a bus but there you go) Except she's forgotten to get her car MOT'd. And it expired four ****ing months ago. So, she's all panicky until it's sorted and I'm the taxi. And tonight they're all down a beach at a party, so the bus isn't an option. As Spurly says though, got Saturday and Sunday up in Manc to make up for it. It's not becoming a thing though.
I thought I was badboy walking through Moss side back in the day mid 90’s at around 9pm when I lived in Manchester…had been to see my mates Ended up getting robbed at knife point by a couple of road men
I had it in me from an early age. Remember me and my brother getting pissed off with my folks bout something, probs not being able to watch a cartoon or something. Anyway, we made a pact to leave home coz of the injustice of it all. I packed up my stuff me and my bro stormed off, jumped on a bus and didn't have a ****ing clue where we were going. I remember my bro saying 'I think we should go home' and him going and speaking to the bus driver. I can't remember how we got home, but I remember he got the bollocking of his life for it and I got away with it being the younger brother
Got an app on my phone now that tells me the MOT stuff, you can add as many cars as you want to it. 'Vehicle Smart' it's called - once you put in the reg, it can bring up every mot it's ever had, and the outcomes of them, advisories and stuff. You can look up any vehicle on it.
I got lost on Moss Side wearing my Arsenal colours when I went to see us play Man City when they played at Maine Rd. Wandered off to find a corner shop to buy a packet of fags and ended up lost down a ****ing rabbit warren of Coronation st houses.
It might have been that or because we'd run out of Angel Delight Would have been a big deal back then whatever it was
mine did that however all that told them was where i started not where i ended up thank **** though i still remember on a number of occasions as i was crawling upstairs passing my dad on his way to start work at which point he would say "when i get back we are having a talk "
When my old man moved house years ago I turned up there about 2am bangin down the door to get in as per to crash as I was out local, some random opened up and i was like, "who are you wheres my dad"? The bloke was chill about it, he worked out my dad was the old owner and called him to pick me up
i pushed 2 miles to my house and although very pissed it did occur to me that it still seemed incredibly difficult to open the door . Then remembered we had moved 2 years ago and since the **** who bought the place was a racist **** who i had taken great delight in making phone calls to in the early hours that perhaps i'd better toddle off a bit sharpish
Good morning you ****ing ****s. Spin at 8:30 Quick chest sesh COV AWAY where we disappointingly lose 1-0 in front of a big turnout Think I’m going to a mate in Shoreditch tonight but would rather sleep and watch MOTD
Morning. About to set off to Manc, come on you reds. @Big Ern your boys will take one hell of a beating.
