Not having been around in the 70s, I have to admit the first I heard of it was in Pulp's "Common People". How I cowered! Do you reckon?

They don't want to campaign to save your soul, they just want to put a brick through your window and be done with it. Laziness is all it is.

Private and personal hells are no concern of mine, thank Jaaaaysus. And how can you bunch a thong? You need an education in smalls, Vince. To the lingerie department!

Although reading about the "Knock twice if you want Mary" thing over at FMC's has me cracking up, especially the trolls she's getting.

And anyway hold on at bit and will ya unbunch that thong. I was not having a go at you, only making the point that each spot has its own hell, and in some situations the only difference is the cost of the Alcohol. A lonely woman sitting at home with a baby or two is equally likely to go mad from isolation. It seems you are in what Bock might call a decent 'hood. still you would have to wonder how much longer they will be home-owners. And anyway hold on at bit and will ya unbunch that thong.

Also that I'm very much enjoying being amongst the homeowners and the socially adept for the time being. I don't know anyone in the middle classes with room for a pony. Ponies take up much more room than that. But isn't it refreshing that the word here means "small horse" rather than "shifty unit of currency". Bliss! Luckily, <b>Sparrow</b>, we don't have full-time religious loonies in Ireland, despite what Ian Paisley's PA would tell you. There's no chance that whole communities would go to the bother of distributing Jesus leaflets; we're far, far too selfish to care about anyone else's soul. Oh, what a wonderful world, <b>Columbo</b>, that the flats were left in the state in which they were found. I barely noticed there was a run-up to Halloween this year; back in Galway they'll get the fireworks primed and have a daily test run for each day in October. Fire = bad, kids. And by the way, middle class my eye, you are working class these days.
