Having spent many nights in the gutter, and privet hedges I'm unable to comment.

Mainly because it always happens late at night, betwixt my local boozer and home.

Theres not many passer's byes at gone midnight....

I have been knocked through many a privet hedge Padders especially after a night in Town , .

One of my old mates ( r.i.p) used to swear blind privet hedges were magnetic, due to the number of times he was drawn towards and fell through them  😃

Beer is proof God wants us to be happy.

 

Privet hedges are proof God will keep us safe!  :)

Seriously.

 

When the Father-in-law was having health issues including the occasional fall, the people of Sheffield always came good.

Like many of his generation he had to have his almost daily walks down t' market.

While not dishevelled, he did have his 'favourite' overcoat (and 'webbed' Army belt) :suspect:.

 

He's no longer with us but seeing 2000 in with us at ours (South facing house) watching fireworks filling the skyline improved his health for another few years.

 

So to all those 'Cuttsie's' out there thank you for picking him up, dusting him down and making sure he was alright.

 

Keep safe out there all those who wouldn't walk past 👍.

Did I ever tell thi about my experience in town...

It wur a sunny Saturday afternoon, a few years ago.

I had a few bevvys, sat on a bench in the Peace Gardens and fell asleep.

When I woke up, in my lap was,

A half eaten ham sandwich,

An empty crisp packet,

Some discarded tab ends,

A third full bottle of Pepsi,

And best of all,

Coinage, 73p in hard cash + a 10 Spanish Peseta coin.

Who says the people of Sheffield aren't generous.

One days years ago when I was a youngster I was at a coach station somewhere at the seaside.

There was a woman with a small child huddled up.

I still remember my father going over and buying her an hot drink.

That must have been about 65 years ago but I still remember my fathers kindness that day.

Changed it but why  ?   there are many queer folk around , A woman near us walks around with a  large pram that contains a large doll . She talks to it and carries it into shops .  A bloke who delivers our Star wears. a flying helmet .They look queer .

I put it down to excessive consumption of Hendersons Relish, ha,ha/
