looking forward to it, hope they take the usual stuff and relate it to present time.. like
When I were a boy, me Mum would sent me down to t'corner store
wi’ two shillings, and I'd come back wi’ five pounds o' spuds,
two loaves o' bread, three pints o' milk, a pound o' cheese,
a packet o' tea, an' a half a dozen eggs.
Ya' can't do that now… Too many foockin' security cameras."
about being poor
When I were a lad, we were so poor, the only time we t'ad 'ot meal were when dog was t'sick.
Had to eat baked beans for tea, so we could have a bubble bath.
we was so poor they cut holes in my pants pockets so's i'd have something to play with
We were so poor we didn't break wind we broke dust
We were so poor.. My sister tried to raise some money out on the streets. She came home with eighteen pounds ten pence. I said what tight git gave you ten pence? She said they all did !
