 So I got up late, tinnitus killing me, not a lover in bed amusing herself

just tinnitus a jailer an unwanted noise

had a bath and listen to Arabic music on Amazon

its good, try it

UPSELLING my IP

but you are all reading that already

then after breakfast and meds to keep me alive

so I can enjoy the pain longer

I decided to go down the hill

met the old dears with the retired greyhound

turned out the other one died

so they have a new fatter one with big black spot on it

like the black spot pigs, but a retired racing dog

went to the alcohol shop to buy a lottery

gemini's last piece of advice before I ditch her

was buy a lottery ticket, cos Jeff Dean may never

buy my IP

so I did 

in the alcohol shop a guy was complaining about the prices

he's a regular, I enjoyed the theatre of it all

i did mention he should watch his alcohol intake

he joked he had had 10 heart attacks

i said I had a quadruple without being a drinker

and that somebody died on me, nearly 50 years ago

when I was a kid 

YES the guy deserves a beer he works very hard

but , be careful cos in the end booze will kill you

so I also bored them how my daughters were at 

an after party for OUTLANDER magazine

I'd never heard of it and I have more readers 

than them, over the years

So my girls were at the party

and God protected them

they got talking to 

2 gay men

a couple

a DJ and a dr

so last night the dj saved my life

so to speak

so that's how stories emerge

they just happen

the kid in the shop turns out to be

a carpenter/plumber

he was at college for 3 years

not university but college

I thought he was new but he works 

the night shifts normally

so I bored him about me being in computers

nearly 50 years ago

and how I only applied for one job

and stayed 21 years

market research into alcohol sales

I told him try one more time to use his trade

then

when I finally got up the hill

it is a killer

I noticed a couple of black tradesmen

so I spontaneously put in a word for the

tall white kid in the food shop next to the alcohol shop

over the road from the post office

all of you can track him down from that reference

SO

I said to the black tradesman there's a kid in the shop

IF the kid is good enough you could give him a chance

because everybody deserves a chance

and I left it at that

Now as I'm telling you this I remembered something

the black tradesman may have been a plasterer

because he was holding the bucket thing

BUT in my book the butcher the baker and the undetaker

by Michael Casey,  that's me

in the book Dave the Plasering Kid, because his mum had

a cake shop or something and he wanted a man's job

so he got his chance as a plasterer, because it was like

doing icing on cake just scale it up and turn 90 degrees

So if the white kid got a chance because of the grace

of a couple of black tradesmen

that would be my good deed for the day

so all of you say a prayer for all tradesmen
