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?’ :

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 .
Seven in the morning, tinder all my money
On the great western road
Feel the wind in my face, take a look in my eyes
Some things never leave you
Some things never leave you
I've been waiting for so long
I've been walking on hot stone
Oh, I've been moving on slow train
I've been walking on stone
I've been thinking about setting the world on fire
I've been thinking about setting the world on fire
I've been thinking about setting the world on fire
I've…
Forbidden
Hipsway
Outside the motel
On the balcony, hands on railing
Asking, asking me where's the fire
Feel the wind in my face
Some things never leave you
Oh, I've been waiting for so long
I've been walking on hot stone
Oh, I've been moving on slow train
I've been walking on stone
I've been thinking about setting the world on fire
