Hello old stock. I got a text from Hoggy Thursday night saying he needed me to help him with a flat tyre on the South Mall, which is our code for let’s go on a three day bender with two very approachable blondes from Tipperary.
One thing led to another and four days later I found myself nicely toasted on a tee-box in Douglas Golf Club with a two iron in my hand, saying “this is the life Hoggy bai”, as if I was from the northside. When he didn’t respond I looked behind me and wasn’t he asleep on the ground.
