Sharpie Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 Looking back a long time ago. Days of being Lord of the Manor. Afternoon shift in Niddrie. Piece time around five, over to Tonys back to Wauchope Avenue police box 30, kettle switched on. Lord of the Manor takes his dining seat on the desk feet on the stool, the wrappers are unwrapped and the pie supper served for dining.Β Sit at the masters table looking out the dark tinted windows at the minions doffing their hats to the Lord who is enjoying another bite out of his delicate meal,greasy fingers, cold chips but Buckingham Palace couldn't be more regal. I was the man, and I ate like the God, a deep fried pie and chips, manna from heaven. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
