I slept under coats and army blankets until I left school and moved out . It seems like a very long time ago now.
My kids can't comprehend that I lived in a house with only one coal fire , and windows that used to freeze on the inside . They've got no concept of the gas being cut off because the bill wasn't paid , and living on cold food.
It's character building .
This .
I honestly believe it's coming. I don't know when , and I don't know what will trigger it , but sure as eggs is eggs , it'll happen , and it'll be f***ing ugly.
