The Main Street .
Next to no traffic on the road and no one to be seen but my eldest daughter message me and it's dad , got some food if you want it so I said yeah , I will meet you at 8.30pm at the phone box next to the Chemist , I shall be wearing a ski hat , scarf and gloves walking Sasha with my bag . We met for the pick up , to an onlooker or passer by it must've looked like a drug deal but no it was food .

She makes a good pot of soup so I ate that and the lasagne is in the oven , life in Scotland eh 1

Typing it out was like Nazi Germany war time .

Radio .
As grim as it may sound I had a small battery radio for entertainment through the week and when my four children arrived at weekends all the electrics switched on , TV's , computer games etc . I got cross eyed checking the meters to see how much cash was left . One time breaking out of the depression I looked at the small battery radio on the mantlepiece and laughed , this reminds me of when I was a kid and sneaking Dad's radio into the room to listen to Muhammed Ali Boxing fights , this ain't so bad after all I thought , I can cope with this .

Coronavirus: ‘How is £94 a week going to pay anyone’s bills?’ :

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-52005581

Back in the day Dad said Gerald if you can't get by on £10 a day you've got problems . I said Dad , haven't you just listened to me , I just got a Welfare letter to say I've got to live on £59,60 a week to run a 4apt house that I never applied for (my ex-wife had connections in the system.) so how am I going to afford that plus access visits for my four children so £10 a day X 7 days a week = £70 and if I'm on £59.60 a week , how am I meant to get by ?

Twenty five years later I'm still here but now you know why I had to put the cue to the side and say adios to the pubs and clubs but I only got by with the help of my family .
