Hopeless Renegade

So, its 2002, probably January, maybe February...

I walk every day to Amble harbour, mostly in the evenings, sometimes with a goofy and most unpersonable dog in-tow. 

I stare at at the sea, and I hear that strange kind of clinking that buoys make when then chink into one another. And I wish I could fly up into the sky and look down at the sea.

So, here we are...Its late 2001, maybe early 2002...

I'm jobless, directionless, but I have this dream that I'm engaged to an inter-bred Texan girl called Kitty, and in this dream the fictional Coronation Street killer Richard Hillman comes around to sell us life insurance and eventually takes the knife to Kitty.

And I wake up...and I listen to "Digsy's Dinner" by Oasis, and our friend here is born.

2004.

I use to drink with two or three old blokes down the Black Bull in Warkworth. They all called me, in turns, either a "piece of shit" or a homo. Fair craic.

I knew *nothing* then. Nothing at all. And, I mean, I know very little now, but - Christ - what a floppy little wally I was.
