check the time! but i needed fags so off to the all night garage i go.
quite peaceful…lovely night. Yeah man sounds good.
pleasant walk along though rather cold. gets there and i bump into a racist situation over cereal. Yes cereal!
the gadgy is about 50 i reckon and he’s at the window asking for fags and frosties. FROSTIES! the asian guy aint a scoobie what yer man is saying..,
“20 Regal & Frosties ya bam”
“Eh?”
“Frosties..fuckin Frosties ya fuckin idiot”
“Sorry what?”
“Frosties.. ken what i mean?? Cereal….like corn flakes..like fuckin rice crispies ya fuckin bla,bla blah
I’m standing behind this arsehole so of course he tries to drag me into it. Sigh
“You ken what i’m saying mate! why do these bastards not speak English? Fuckin FROSTIES!”
I look at the guy serving…he looks at me.. both of us roll our eyes..a random taxi driver behind us rolls his eyes.
The silence thankfully was enough for the idiot to realise he is causing a scene…”Just gies the fags then ya black blah bla bla
And off he goes with his smokes but shouting at the World how hard it is to get fuckin FROSTIES!
I’m being served now and the Asian guy is asking me “WTF was that about?” “just a drunken twat mate” I say. we both agree and off i go on my merry way chuckling at the absurdity of it all.
I’m not finished, on the way back as I get close to my home some guy(not the same one) appears from nowhere and starts punching the shutters of the bookies as he’s walking along. Boxer stylyee. I’m watching the guy but i’m only 50 yards from home so i keep my pace as he turns the corner. Is he behind the corner that i’m gonna turn? Thankfully not but he’s up the other corner…still a decent distance away thank fuck.
I was waiting for it….”What did you say?” he shouts. Sigh “What?” I shout. “you got a fuckin problem? shouts he. “No problem here pal” says me. “Aye well that’s awright then,eh?” “Aye it fuckin is man, away home to yer bed” I’m yards from home, I just wanted smokes..I cannae be doing with this…I just wanna be home.
He dithers a bit and mumbles off around the corner. Sheesh!
Fuckin Tuesday night! quarter past 3 in the mornin!, what a shithole I live in.
Plenty arseholes out there peeps. Watch yerselfs.
