oh right!!! i'll plan my death to fit in with your holiday plans, no problem!!!

johnsons too far away, that 's bandit country, you could get caught oot by thon wode painted heathen across the road, arto something or other? blue face, kilt and a mass of bad keegan perm, frightening sight.

i remember the time my auntie zena sent me for a stone of potatoes, he kept them thru the back so you could fill your pockets while he weighed them, rude not to, anyway the stone of spuds was 10lb of dirt and 4lb of potatoes once you washed them, reminds me of coming home from school around the time "the bairn" was born(whatever happened to her?) me and "dedalus" were staying with auntie Zena, glass of fizzy orange and a packet of chedder cheese biscuits, a disgusting combination to my taste buds now, but lapped up then.

i no not of this "singles" you refer to, i've had my milk run since i was 11 so i can buy them in packs of ten, during the week, 20 at the weekend, tho hugh and charlie usually send me home from calton training if they catch me having a fly puff when i'm supposed to be lapping the milldam park, i keep telling them i'm gerd mueller and don't need to be able to run more than ten yards, but will they listen? "you'll go home boy!!!" thats all i get, week in, week out, good job i'm knocking them in on a regular basis for the third best under 12 side in kintyre, that dalaruan and crosshill lot must be fielding overage players, some of them are shaving already!!!!! still, it's not a stretch keeping "tosh" oot the side, i keep calling him paul wilson but he disnae laugh, it's a compliment, i could called him johnny doyle but he lacks that electric pace up front.

i better go, beef olives for the tea and i've still to finish telling wee liam about the man utd game this morning, he's a poor wee soul, hasnae got MUTV, 4-0, c'mon you reds.
